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

pAbpPolyadenylate-binding protein; Binds the poly(A) tail of mRNA. Since it interacts with the cap-associating translation initiation factor eIF4G, it is likely that it functions by linking Atx2 to the cap-binding complex. Forms a complex with tyf and Atx2 which functions in adult circadian pacemaker neurons to sustain circadian rhythms likely by switching between activator and repressor modes of post-transcriptional regulation via interaction with Lsm12a or me31B, respectively. The activator complex (Atx2-tyf activator complex) activates the TYF-dependent translation of per to maintain 24 [...] (634 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
eIF4E7
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E7 (eIF4E7) encodes a protein involved in translational initiation.
   
 0.999
eIF4E3
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E3 (eIF4E3) encodes a protein that binds the 7-methyl-guanosine cap structure of mRNA. It is a component of the eIF4F cap-binding complex that is essential for cap-dependent translation of mRNA. eIF4E3 is primarily expressed in testes and is required for male fertility, but not for viability.
   
 0.999
eIF4E5
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E5 (eIF4E5) encodes a protein in translational initiation.
   
 0.999
eIF4E4
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E4 (eIF4E4) encodes a protein involved in translational initiation.
   
 0.999
eIF4G1
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4G1 (eIF4G1) encodes a protein that contributes to translation and spermatogenesis.
   
 0.999
eIF4E6
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E6 (eIF4E6) encodes a RNA 7-methylguanosine cap binding protein.
   
 0.999
eIF4A
Eukaryotic initiation factor 4A; ATP-dependent RNA helicase which is a subunit of the eIF4F complex involved in cap recognition and is required for mRNA binding to ribosome. In the current model of translation initiation, eIF4A unwinds RNA secondary structures in the 5'-UTR of mRNAs which is necessary to allow efficient binding of the small ribosomal subunit, and subsequent scanning for the initiator codon. Involved in germ cell formation.
 
 
 0.999
eIF4E1
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E1; Recognizes and binds the 7-methylguanosine-containing mRNA cap during an early step in the initiation of protein synthesis and facilitates ribosome binding by inducing the unwinding of the mRNAs secondary structures. In 0-1 hour embryos, forms a complex with me31B, cup, tral and pAbp which binds to various mRNAs including maternal mRNAs, and downregulates their expression during the maternal-to-zygotic transition. Belongs to the eukaryotic initiation factor 4E family.
   
 0.999
eRF3
Eukaryotic translation release factor 3 (eRF3) encodes a GTP-binding protein important in the termination of protein translation.
   
 
 0.997
Atx2
Ataxin-2 homolog; RNA binding protein that regulates various processes including circadian behaviors, actin filament formation, eye development and oocyte formation. Forms a complex with tyf and pAbp which functions in adult circadian pacemaker neurons to sustain circadian rhythms likely by switching between activator and repressor modes of post-transcriptional regulation via interaction with Lsm12a or me31B. Forms an activator complex (Atx2-tyf activator complex) via association with Lsm12a and activates the TYF-dependent translation of per to maintain 24 hour periodicity in circadian [...]
