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

Predicted Functional Partners:
FBgn0002735
Enhancer of split mgamma protein; Transcriptional repressor of genes that require a bHLH protein for their transcription. May serve as a transcriptional regulator of the Achaete-scute complex (AS-C) genes. Contributes to the neural-epidermal lineage decision during early neurogenesis. Part of the Notch signaling pathway, plays a role in neuroblasts proliferation in embryos and larvae. In the larval brain, together with other self-renewal transcriptional repressors such as klu and dpn, required for type II neuroblast self-renewal and for maintaining erm in an inactive state in intermedi [...]

dpn
Protein deadpan; Transcriptional repressor of genes that require a bHLH protein for their transcription. In the larval brain, required to maintain the self- renewal and identity of type II neuroblasts by regulating the expression of the transcriptional repressor erm together with other self-renewal transcriptional repressors such as klu and E(spl)mgamma- HLH. As part of its role in neuroblasts development, has been shown to be a direct target of the Notch signaling pathway, however might work also independently of N/Notch. In the developing larval and pupal brain, required for mushroom [...]

hth
Homeobox protein homothorax; All isoforms are required for patterning of the embryonic cuticle. Acts with exd to delimit the eye field and prevent inappropriate eye development. Isoforms that carry the homeodomain are required for proper localization of chordotonal organs within the peripheral nervous system and antennal identity; required to activate antennal-specific genes, such as sal and to repress the leg-like expression of dac. Necessary for the nuclear localization of the essential HOX cofactor, extradenticle (exd). Both necessary and sufficient for inner photoreceptors to adopt [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

slp1
Sloppy paired 1 (slp1) encodes a transcription factor of the fork-head family that functions by interacting with the corepressor encoded by gro. The product of slp1 regulates a wide variety of developmental processes including embryonic segmentation, ventral fate specification in the retina, and temporal patterning of the neuroblasts that produce medulla neurons.

brat
Brain tumor protein; A NHL-domain family protein that functions a translational repressor to inhibit cell proliferation. Plays a central role in translation repression of hb mRNA by being recruited by nos and pum to the Nanos Response Element (NRE), a 16 bp sequence in the hb mRNA 3'-UTR. Probably recruited by other proteins to repress translation of other mRNAs in other tissues. Involved in the regulation of ribosomal RNA synthesis and cell growth. Participates in abdominal segmentation and imaginal disk development. During neuroblast division, segregates asymmetrically and inhibits s [...]
   
   0.620
ase
Achaete-scute complex protein T8; Asense (ase) encodes a transcription factor in the achaete-scute complex. It acts together with other proneural genes in nervous system development, which involves N-mediated lateral inhibition. ase is expressed in the CNS type-I neuroblasts and the PNS sensory organ precursors (SOPs) but not in the proneural clusters that give rise to the SOP via lateral inhibition.
   
 
 0.614
grh
Protein grainyhead; Grainy head (grh) encodes the founding member of a highly conserved family of transcription factors essential for embryonic development. It is both a transcriptional activator and repressor, responsible for the proper expression of many genes primarily involved in epithelial cell fate, barrier formation, wound healing, tube morphogenesis and proliferation of larval neuroblasts; Belongs to the grh/CP2 family. Grainyhead subfamily.

mira
Miranda, isoform A; Miranda (mira) encodes a cytoplasmic and cortical scaffolding protein that binds the products of pros, stau and brat. It is asymmetrically localized to the basal cortex during neuroblast asymmetric cell division, resulting in its partioning into GMC daughter cells, where it is degraded and releases its cargo proteins.
