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

PliPellino (Pli) encodes a RING-domain-containing ubiquitin E3 ligase that coordinates with ubiquitin-activating (E1) and ubiquitin-conjugating (E2) enzymes to degrade target proteins. It functions as a negative regulator of the Toll-mediated innate immunity pathway. (424 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pll
Serine/threonine-protein kinase pelle; Plays an essential role in the Tl receptor signaling pathway that establishes embryonic dorsoventral polarity; the signal directs import of dl into ventral and ventrolateral nuclei, thereby establishing dorsoventral polarity. Tub recruits pll to the plasma membrane and protein-protein interaction activates pll.
    
 0.987
Myd88
Myd88 (Myd88) encodes an adaptor protein involved in in the Toll pathway functioning downstream of the product of Tl and upstream of the product of tub. Toll pathway is a signaling cascade that plays a key role in various developmental and immune processes, notably embryonic dorsoventral patterning and regulation of antimicrobial peptides.
    
 
 0.945
Traf6
TNF-receptor-associated factor 6 (Traf6) encodes a protein that belongs to a family of adaptor proteins involved in transducing downstream signaling by interacting with cell surface receptors. It mediates the pro-inflammatory effects of Toll and related receptor signaling, and the cell death induced by JNK activation via the product of egr.
   
 0.940
cactin
Cactin; Plays a role during early embryonic development. Involved in the dorsal-ventral embryonic patterning. Probably acts as a negative regulator of the NF-kappa-B (Rel) signaling pathway. Belongs to the CACTIN family.
      
 0.799
Uev1A
Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme variant 1A (Uev1A) encodes a conserved protein that contributes to ubiquitin conjugating enzyme activity, but not catalytically, since it lacks the conserved cysteine residue essential for ubiquitin conjugation. It regulates genomic integrity, IMD pathway-mediated innate immunity, JNK-pathway mediated cell death and tumor invasion.
   
 0.791
ECSIT
Evolutionarily conserved signaling intermediate in Toll pathway, mitochondrial; Involved in the innate immune response. Promotes the production of antibacterial peptides; Belongs to the ECSIT family.
      
 0.772
tub
Protein Tube; Plays an essential role in the Tl receptor signaling pathway that establishes embryonic dorsoventral polarity; the signal directs import of dl into ventral and ventrolateral nuclei, thereby establishing dorsoventral polarity. Tub recruits pll to the plasma membrane and protein-protein interaction activates pll. Also has a role in pupal pattern formation.
    
 
 0.744
IKKbeta
Inhibitor of nuclear factor kappa-B kinase subunit beta; Required for the activation of the NF-kappa-B factor Relish (Rel) by acting as an essential signaling component in transmitting the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) signal leading to cact degradation, which is required for direct activation of Rel. Phosphorylates inhibitors of NF- kappa-B (cact) thus leading to the dissociation of the inhibitor/NF- kappa-B complex and ultimately the degradation of the NF-kappa-B inhibitor. Essential for antibacterial immune response.
   
 0.698
Tab2
TAK1-associated binding protein 2 (Tab2) encodes a protein with an ubiquitin binding domain. It interacts with the product of Tak1, a MAP kinase kinase kinase involved the activation of the immune deficiency, JNK and Grindelwald-Eiger pathways.
      
 0.696
ben
Bendless (ben) encodes an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. It plays essential roles in multiple processes such as synaptic growth and maturation, axon guidance, innate immunity, genomic integrity, tumor growth, cell invasion, apoptosis, long-term memory and escape response.
