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

cicPutative transcription factor capicua; Transcriptional repressor required for the specification of numerous cell types during embryonic development. Required for terminal patterning of early embryos. May associate with gro to repress tll and hkb, restricting their expression to embryonic terminal poles where they initiate correct development of head and tail structures. Required for dorsoventral patterning of oocytes and early embryos. Cooperates with dl to repress zen and other dorsal specific genes within the embryo and promotes expression of the ventralizing factor pip in ovarian fo [...] (2150 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Atx-1
IP08458p1; Ataxin 1 (Atx-1) encodes the ortholog of human Atx-1, in which pathogenic variants with expanded glutamine tracts cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 1. It interacts with the product of sens via its AXH domain.

gro
Groucho (gro) encodes a global developmental co-repressor in conjunction with manifold DNA-binding repressor partner proteins, which tether it to target promoters. It functions downstream of key signaling pathways such as Wg/Wnt and Dpp/TGF-beta. Notably, phosphorylation of the product of gro in response to MAPK activation weakens its repressor capacity.
   
 
 0.732
pnt
ETS-like protein pointed; ETS transcription factor with a prominent role during development of the eye and the nervous system. Required for glial- neuronal cell interactions at the ventral midline which are necessary for the proper elaboration of commissures in the embryonic CNS. [Isoform P1]: Required for normal EGFR-induced photoreceptor development. Following transcriptional activation by isoform P2, acts as a constitutive activator of transcription, leading to induction of target genes essential for photoreceptor development. In larval brains, involved in the maintenance of type II [...]

Egfr
Epidermal growth factor receptor; Binds to four ligands: Spitz, Gurken, Vein and Argos, which is an antagonist. Transduces the signal through the ras-raf-MAPK pathway. Involved in a myriad of developmental decisions. Critical for the proliferation of imaginal tissues, and for the determination of both the antero-posterior and dorso-ventral polarities of the oocyte. In the embryo, plays a role in the establishment of ventral cell fates, maintenance of amnioserosa and ventral neuroectodermal cells, germ band retraction, cell fate specification in the central nervous system and production [...]
    
 
 0.676
hkb
Huckebein (hkb) is expressed in patches within the embryonic neuroectoderm and a subset of neuroblasts and their progeny, where it is required for proper neuronal specification and axon targeting. It is a terminal gap gene mediating the maternal terminal information at the posterior end of the blastoderm embryo.
    
 
 0.673
CG17199
Uncharacterized protein; Oxidoreductase activity. It is involved in the biological process described with: oxidation-reduction process.
      
 0.669
Spf45
RNA binding motif protein 17; Spf45 (Spf45) encodes a bi-functional protein with roles in both splicing and DNA repair.
   
  
 0.667
Ras85D
Ras-like protein 1; Ras proteins bind GDP/GTP and possess intrinsic GTPase activity (By similarity). Plays a role in eye development by regulating cell growth, survival of postmitotic ommatidial cells and differentiation of photoreceptor cells. During larval development, mediates Ptth/tor signaling leading to the production of ecdysone, a hormone required for the initiation of metamorphosis.
    
 
 0.637
tll
Protein tailless; Orphan receptor that binds DNA as a monomer to hormone response elements (HRE) containing an extended core motif half-site sequence 5'-AAGTCA-3' in which the 5' flanking nucleotides participate in determining receptor specificity. This receptor binds to the consensus sequence [AG][AG]AAGTCAA. Plays a key role in the establishment of non-metameric domains at the anterior and posterior poles of the embryo. It may also play a role in the nervous system. The maternal terminal pathway activates the tll gene in the termini; TLL activity then represses segmentation and activ [...]

scu
3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase type-2; May function in mitochondrial tRNA maturation. Catalyzes the beta-oxidation at position 17 of androgens and estrogens, and has 3- alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity with androsterone. Catalyzes the third step in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids. Carries out oxidative conversions of 7-beta-hydroxylated bile acids. Also exhibits 20-beta-OH and 21-OH dehydrogenase activities with C21 steroids. Required for cell survival during embryonic development. May play a role in germline formation; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases [...]
