STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

coraProtein 4.1 homolog; An integral component of the septate junction. May play a role in cell-cell interactions that are necessary for proper development. Vital for embryonic development. (1698 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Nrx-IV
Neurexin-4; Seems to play a role in the formation and function of septate junctions. Septate junctions, which are the equivalent of vertebrates tight junctions, are characterized by regular arrays of transverse structures that span the intermembrane space and form a physical barrier to diffusion. Required for the blood-brain barrier formation. Belongs to the neurexin family.

CG1090
Probable sodium/potassium/calcium exchanger CG1090; May function in the removal and maintenance of calcium homeostasis. Transports one Ca(2+) and 1 K(+) in exchange for 4 Na(+) (By similarity).
   
  
 0.835
CASK
Peripheral plasma membrane protein CASK; CASK (CASK) encodes a member of the MAGUK family of scaffolding proteins. In epithelial tissues, the product of CASK functions as an adhesion molecule involved in cell proliferation, cytoskeletal remodeling and cell migration. In neurons, the product of CASK serves as a scaffold for a number of signaling and transmembrane molecules and is involved in synaptic development and plasticity.
   
 0.813
Gli
Gliotactin, isoform A; Gliotactin (Gli) encodes a transmembrane protein localized at tricellular junctions that is necessary for septate junction and permeability barrier formation.
   
  0.648
beta-Spec
Beta Spectrin (beta-Spec) encodes an essential protein that interacts with the product of alpha-Spec to form a heterotetramer. The product of beta-Spec is typically associated with the plasma membrane. It functions in a lipoprotein pathway that delivers dietary fat to the larval fat body for storage. It is also believed to function in asymmetric division of germ line stem cells via cytoplasmic structures called spectrosomes and fusomes.
   
 
 0.647
kune
Kune-kune; It is involved in the biological process described with: establishment of glial blood-brain barrier; regulation of tube length, open tracheal system; septate junction assembly.
   
  
 0.633
Nrx-1
Neurexin 1, isoform F; Neurexin 1 (Nrx-1) encodes a transmembrane synaptic adhesive molecule that regulates the synaptic architecture and function in the brain and neuromuscular junction. It contributes to synaptic growth, transmission, synaptic formation and also regulation of learning and memory, locomotion and visual function.
   
 
 0.626
GluRIIA
Glutamate receptor IIA (GluRIIA) encodes a subunit of the muscle glutamate receptor that responds to neurotransmitter at the neuromuscular junction.
    
 
 0.600
Nrg
Neuroglian; The long isoform may play a role in neural and glial cell adhesion in the developing embryo. The short isoform may be a more general cell adhesion molecule involved in other tissues and imaginal disk morphogenesis. Vital for embryonic development. Essential for septate junctions. Septate junctions, which are the equivalent of vertebrates tight junctions, are characterized by regular arrays of transverse structures that span the intermembrane space and form a physical barrier to diffusion. Required for the blood-brain barrier formation.
   
 
 0.594
yrt
Yurt, isoform A; Yurt (yrt) encodes a membrane-associated protein. It contributes to apical-basal polarity and permeability of septate junctions. In differentiating epithelial cells, it counteracts apical polarity proteins to sustain lateral membrane stability and apical-basal polarity. In fully differentiated cells, the product of yrt acts as a negative regulatory component of the crb complex and limits apical membrane growth.
