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

l(2)glLethal(2) giant larvae protein; Essential for the development of polarized epithelia, for cell polarity associated with asymmetric cell division of neuroblasts during development, and for oocyte polarity formation. Promotes the formation of actin-rich projections at the oocyte cortex and the posterior enrichment of par-1 which is required for oocyte polarization. Regulates the localization of axis-specifying morphogens such as stau and grk. [Isoform p127]: Has an accessory function in control of cell proliferation and differentiation during development. (1161 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
aPKC
Atypical protein kinase C; Serine/threonine protein kinase which is required for apico- basal cell polarity in the germ line as well as in epithelial and neural precursor cells, for epithelial planar cell polarity and for cell proliferation. During oocyte development, required for the posterior translocation of oocyte specification factors and for the posterior establishment of the microtubule organizing center within the presumptive oocyte. Phosphorylates l(2)gl which restricts l(2)gl activity to the oocyte posterior and regulates posterior enrichment of par-1, leading to establishmen [...]

par-6
Par-6, isoform A; Par-6 (par-6) encodes a scaffold protein that forms a complex with the products of baz and aPKC and with other cortical, cytoskeletal and regulatory proteins. It is involved in cell polarization, actin-based protrusion formation and tracheal branching.
   
 
 0.987
dlg1
Disks large 1 tumor suppressor protein; During embryonic development, some isoforms are essential for proper neuronal differentiation and organization. Required for cell polarity; maintenance of apicobasal polarity. Plays a critical role at septate junctions in cellular growth control during larval development. The presence of a guanylate kinase domain suggests involvement in cellular adhesion as well as signal transduction to control cellular proliferation.
   
 
 0.878
baz
Bazooka, isoform B; Bazooka (baz) encodes a scaffold protein that forms a complex with the products of par-6 and aPKC and with other cortical, cytoskeletal and regulatory proteins. It functions in cell polarization pathways in epithelial, neuronal and other cell types.
    
 
 0.861
numb
Numb (numb) encodes a membrane-associated inhibitor of Notch signaling. It controls neuroblast and sense organ precursor asymmetric division. It is asymmetrically localized during mitosis and segregates exclusively to one of two daughter cells.
   
 
 0.773
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.
   
 
 0.709
zip
Myosin heavy chain, non-muscle; Nonmuscle myosin appears to be responsible for cellularization. Required for morphogenesis and cytokinesis. Necessary for auditory transduction: plays a role in Johnston's organ organization by acting in scolopidial apical attachment. Interaction with the myosin ck may be important for this function. Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Myosin family.
   
 
 0.689
ball
Nucleosomal histone kinase 1; Serine/threonine-protein kinase involved in somatic mitosis and female meiosis. Required for spindle organization in mitosis, and for the establishment or maintenance of meiosis- specific chromosomal configurations, including the prophase I karyosome and the metaphase I spindle. Specifically phosphorylates nucleosomal H2A on 'Thr-119'. Required for the development and organization of indirect flight muscle sarcomeres by regulating the formation of M line and H zone and the correct assembly of thick and thin filaments in the sarcomere. Belongs to the protei [...]

RpL35A
Ribosomal protein L35A; Structural constituent of ribosome. It is involved in the biological process described with: cytoplasmic translation; ribosomal large subunit biogenesis.
   
    0.676
Ankle2
Ankyrin repeat and LEM domain containing 2, isoform D; Ankle2 (Ankle2) encodes an important protein for proper development of the third instar larval CNS. Ankle2 loss causes a small brain phenotype, defects in proliferation and excessive apoptosis.
