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

Rab3Ras-related protein Rab-3; Rab3 (Rab3) encodes a member of a large family of Ras-like small GTPases. Localized primarily at the synapse, Rab3 product is involved in mechanisms that control synaptic development and function, including the regulation of active zone protein composition at the neuromuscular junction. (220 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Rim
Rab3 interacting molecule (Rim) encodes a scaffolding protein at the synaptic active zone, with important roles in promoting neurotransmitter release.
   
 0.997
unc-13
Unc-13, isoform E; Unc-13 (unc-13) encodes a protein involved in synaptic vesicle exocytosis.
   
 
 0.985
Syt1
Synaptotagmin 1; May have a regulatory role in the membrane interactions during trafficking of synaptic vesicles at the active zone of the synapse. It binds acidic phospholipids with a specificity that requires the presence of both an acidic head group and a diacyl backbone.
   
 0.984
Liprin-alpha
Liprin-alpha, isoform E; Liprin-alpha (Liprin-alpha) encodes a scaffolding protein that interacts with the receptor phosphatase Lar. It is involved in synapse morphogenesis and axon guidance.
     
 0.967
Syn
Synapsin-1; Synapsin (Syn) encodes a phosphoprotein associated with synaptic vesicles. It interacts with the endocytic scaffolding protein encoded by Dap160. Phosphorylation of synapsin at serine 6 is required for associative short-term learning/memory and short-term olfactory habituation. It is important for outgrowth of synaptic boutons at the larval neuromuscular junction.
   
 0.948
Syb
Synaptobrevin; Unknown, but synaptobrevins are presumed to be involved in targeting and fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane as well as in neurotransmitter release.
   
 
 0.939
unc-104
Kinesin-like protein unc-104; Required for presynaptic maturation, has a role in axonal transport of dense-core vesicles carrying synaptic vesicle precursors, components required for the morphological transformation of axonal growth cones to mature boutons; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family. Unc-104 subfamily.
   
 
 0.936
Rab3-GEF
MAP kinase-activating death domain protein; Plays significant role in regulating cell proliferation, survival and death through alternative mRNA splicing. Plays an important regulatory role in physiological cell death, caspase-mediated apoptosis (By similarity). Converts GDP-bound inactive form of Rab3 to the GTP-bound active forms.
   
 0.928
VGlut
Vesicular glutamate transporter, isoform A.
   
 
 0.928
Syt4
Synaptotagmin 4 (Syt4) encodes a vesicular calcium binding protein implicated in retrograde signaling at synapses. It is proposed to regulate calcium-dependent cargo trafficking within the postsynaptic compartment.
