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

ImpIGF-II mRNA-binding protein (Imp) encodes a protein that regulates the stability, translation and/or transport of its associated mRNAs, a large number of them encoding F-actin regulators. It is an essential protein required for neural and germline stem cell maturation, neuronal remodeling, as well as the expression modulation of asymmetrically localized maternal mRNAs. (638 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sqd
RNA-binding protein squid; This protein is a component of ribonucleosomes. Could be needed to organize a concentration gradient of a dorsalizing morphogen (Dm) originating in the germinal vesicle. At least one of the isoforms is essential in somatic tissues.

Syp
Syncrip, isoform J; Syncrip (Syp) encodes an RNA-binding protein that regulates the localization and translation of mRNAs involved in multiple processes. It is required for synapse morphology and synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction as well as being involved in oocyte axis specification and control of neuronal cell fates in the mushroom body.

lin-28
Protein lin-28 homolog; mRNA binding; zinc ion binding; mRNA 3'-UTR binding; Belongs to the lin-28 family.
   
 
 0.665
Ythdc1
YTH domain-containing protein 1; Regulator of alternative splicing that specifically recognizes and binds N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-containing RNAs. Acts by acting as a reader of m6A methylation. Required for sex determination and dosage compensation via Sxl alternative splicing: m6A methylation acts as a key regulator of Sxl pre-mRNA and promotes female-specific alternative splicing of Sxl, which determines female physiognomy. M6A methylation is also required for neuronal functions.
      
 0.658
BicC
Protein bicaudal C; RNA-binding protein that is involved in oogenesis. Required for correct targeting of the migrating anterior follicle cells and the establishment of anterior-posterior polarity in the oocyte. May act as translational repressor of oskar during oogenesis. Function seems to be sensitive to small changes in expression.
      
 0.623
Mettl14
N6-adenosine-methyltransferase non-catalytic subunit; Non-catalytic component of the WMM complex, a complex that mediates N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation of mRNAs, a modification that plays a role in the efficiency of mRNA splicing and is required for sex determination. In the heterodimer formed with Ime4/Mettl3, Mettl14 constitutes the RNA- binding scaffold that recognizes the substrate rather than the catalytic core (By similarity). Required for sex determination and dosage compensation via Sxl alternative splicing: m6A methylation acts as a key regulator of Sxl pre-mRNA and pro [...]

Mkrn1
Makorin 1, isoform A; Ubiquitin protein ligase activity; metal ion binding; ubiquitin-protein transferase activity; zinc ion binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: protein polyubiquitination; positive regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of oogenesis.
    
 
 0.584
ImpL2
Neural/ectodermal development factor IMP-L2; Essential developmental role during embryogenesis, in particular the normal development of the nervous system. May be involved in some aspect of cell adhesion.
      
 0.557
mub
Mushroom-body expressed, isoform K; Mushroom-body expressed (mub) encodes a protein involved in thermosensory behavior and regulation of alternative mRNA splicing.
   
 
0.544
yps
Ypsilon schachtel, isoform A; Nucleic acid binding; protein binding; mRNA binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: oogenesis; mRNA splicing, via spliceosome; regulation of gene expression.
