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

scbIntegrin alpha-PS3 heavy chain; Integrin alpha-PS3/beta-PS is a receptor for laminin. Also binds to wb. Important during embryogenesis for the development of the trachea, dorsal vessel and salivary gland, as well as for dorsal closure. Required for short-term memory processes. Minor involvement in the establishment of the oocyte anterior-posterior length. Plays a role in timely border cell migration during oogenesis, probably mediated by JNK signaling. Integrin alpha-PS3/Itgbn is required for effective phagocytosis of apoptotic cells during embryonic development and for the phagocytic [...] (1115 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Itgbn
Integrin beta-nu; Contributes to endodermal integrity and adhesion between the midgut epithelium and the surrounding visceral muscle. Essential for migration of the primordial midgut cells and for maintaining, but not establishing, cell polarity in the midgut epithelium. Can only partially compensate for the loss of beta-PS integrin during primordial midgut cell migration. The two beta subunits mediate midgut migration by distinct mechanisms: beta-PS requires rhea/Talin and beta-nu does not. Integrin alpha-PS3/beta-nu is required for effective phagocytosis of apoptotic cells during emb [...]

Integrin beta-PS; Integrin alpha-PS1/beta-PS is a receptor for laminin. Integrin alpha-PS2/beta-PS is a receptor for Tig, wb and Ten-m. Contributes to endodermal integrity and adhesion between the midgut epithelium and the surrounding visceral muscle. Essential for migration of the primordial midgut cells and for maintaining, but not establishing, cell polarity in the midgut epithelium. The two beta subunits mediate midgut migration by distinct mechanisms: beta-PS requires rhea/talin and Itgbn does not. Required for rhea/talin correct cellular localization in the midgut. Required for m [...]

mew
Integrin alpha-PS1 heavy chain; Multiple edematous wings (mew) encodes one of 5 fly integrin alpha subunits, and when in a heterodimer with an integrin beta subunit makes a receptor for the extracellular matrix protein laminin. It is required in numerous tissues for cell migration, adhesion between cell layers, and cell differentiation.
  
 
0.937
rhea
Rhea, isoform B; Rhea (rhea) encodes fly talin, a large adaptor protein that is essential for all adhesive functions of integrins. It also has at least one role independent of integrins: repressing shg transcription in follicle cells.
   
 0.934
if
Integrin alpha-PS2 heavy chain; Inflated (if) encodes one of five fly integrin alpha subunits, and when in a heterodimer with an integrin beta subunit makes a receptor for extracellular matrix proteins containing an RGD motif, such as those encoded by Tig, wb laminin and Tsp. It is required in numerous tissues for cell migration and adhesion between cell layers.

ItgaPS4
Integrin alpha-PS4; Possible role in cell adhesion. Minor involvement in the establishment of the oocyte anterior-posterior length.
  
 
0.907
ItgaPS5
Integrin alpha-PS5; Possible role in cell-cell interactions. Minor involvement in the establishment of the oocyte anterior-posterior length.
  
  
0.906
Vinc
Vinculin (Vinc) encodes a key mechanoeffector of cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix adhesion. It binds to the products of rhea and alpha-Cat, when they are stretched by force, and links them to actin. Vinc mutant flies are viable and fertile although mild defects have been documented in muscle attachment and heart function; Belongs to the vinculin/alpha-catenin family.
   
 0.879
Pax
Paxillin, isoform F; Paxillin (Pax) encodes an adaptor protein that is generally associated with integrins. It is not required for most integrin-mediated adhesion or migration events, but is required for viability beyond pupal stages. It controls the size of some muscles by regulating the rate of cell fusion.
    
 0.872
LanA
Laminin subunit alpha; Binding to cells via a high affinity receptor, laminin is thought to mediate the attachment, migration and organization of cells into tissues during embryonic development by interacting with other extracellular matrix components. Activates presynaptic signaling involving integrin alpha-PS3/beta-nu and Fak to suppress neuromuscular junction (NMJ) growth during larval development and during low crawling activity, but not during higher-crawling conditions. Mediates, together with integrin alpha-PS3/beta-nu, glutamate receptor-modulated NMJ growth.
