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

RhoGAP18BRho GTPase activating protein at 18B (RhoGAP18B) encodes a protein that can act as a GTPase activating protein for several Rho GTPase and is involved in the regulation of actin dynamics. (1317 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Rho1
Ras-like GTP-binding protein Rho1; Has a role in regulating actin cytoskeletal organization: required during early development for proper execution of morphogenetic movements of individual cells and groups of cells important for the formation of the embryonic body plan. Plays a role in regulating dorsal closure during embryogenesis. During axis elongation, required for Rho-kinase Rok planar polarity and adherens junction localization as well as for generating a planar polarized distribution of the actin-binding protein Shrm. During embryogenesis, acts upstream of wash to regulate the d [...]

pav
Kinesin-like protein; Pavarotti (pav) encodes a microtubule motor protein from the Kinesin superfamily. It plays important roles during the mitotic cycle including spindle formation, cortical cytoskeleton reorganization and cytokinesis. It also negatively regulates Wnt activity.
   
 
 0.845
sub
Kinesin-like protein subito; Subito (sub) encodes a kinesin-6 homolog. Kinesin-6 proteins are known to bundle antiparallel microtubules. The product of sub is required for cytokinesis in mitosis and spindle organization and chromosome segregation in female meiosis; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family.
   
 
 0.845
Arfip
Arfaptin (Arfip) a protein that functions to tether the dynactin complex to the Golgi membrane in motor neurons. This function is required for normal synaptic growth during larval development.
    
 
 0.808
pbl
Pebble, isoform B; Pebble (pbl) encodes a Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor that contributes to multiple processes involving actin cytoskeleton reorganization, including cytokinesis, axogenesis and wound healing as well as cell shape regulation and cell migration during gastrulation.
   
 
 0.780
Rac1
Ras-related protein Rac1; During various developmental processes, regulates changes in cell morphology in response to extracellular signals. During oogenesis, mediates signaling from the tyrosine kinase (RTK) chemoattractant receptors (Egfr and Pvr) to the guidance pathway that control the directional persistent collective migration of the border cell (BC) cluster through the nurse cells to the oocyte. Once activating by Pvr and Egfr, promotes the formation of forward-directed actin protrusions which stabilize the DE- cadherin (shg)-mediated adhesions. In turn, DE-mediated adhesion bet [...]
   
 0.752
Arf51F
ADP-ribosylation factor 6; GTP-binding protein involved in protein trafficking; may modulate vesicle budding and uncoating within the Golgi apparatus (By similarity). Promotes cell movement and remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton during compound eye morphogenesis. Required for normal ethanol-induced tolerance and preference. Probably after Efa6-mediated activation, counteracts ethanol-induced sedation.
    
 
 0.742
feo
Fascetto (feo) encodes a protein that binds the central spindle microtubules and is required for proper midbody formation and cytokinesis. It also has roles in centrosome duplication and neurogenesis.
   
 
 0.727
sofe
Sister of feo, isoform A; Microtubule binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: mitotic cytokinesis; G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; mitotic spindle midzone assembly; microtubule cytoskeleton organization.
   
 
 0.727
Efa6
PH and SEC7 domain-containing protein; Guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Arf6. Regulates axon growth and branching by inhibiting microtubule polymerisation at the cortex. Together with shot, promotes axonal microtubule bundle integrity. Required for normal ethanol-induced tolerance and preference. Probably by activating Arf6, counteracts ethanol-induced sedation.
