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

sliSlit (sli) encodes a secreted glycoprotein that acts as a ligand for the Robo receptor family and co-receptors, including the products of Sdc and Dscam1. The product of sli functions as second messenger (via Abl) and receptor dependent, providing repellent (neural growth cone), attractive (trachea), and polarising (cardioblasts) cues for differentiating cells. (2157 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
robo2
Roundabout 2 (robo2) encodes a member of the Robo receptor family that responds to the ligand encoded by sli as a repulsive cue in axons, dendrites, muscles, trachea and heart development. It can also inhibit robo1 signaling, likely explaining why the product of robo2 can appear to be an attractive receptor in certain contexts.
   
 0.999
robo1
Roundabout 1 (robo1) encodes a member of the Robo receptor family that uses the secreted glycoprotein encoded by sli as ligand and the products of Sdc and Dscam1 as co-receptors. It contributes to axon guidance and dendrite morphogenesis as well as regulating trachea and heart tube development.

robo3
Roundabout 3, isoform A.

resilin
Pro-resilin; Plays a central role in insect flight by providing low stiffness, high strain and efficient energy storage.
    
  0.900
Abl
Tyrosine-protein kinase Abl; Arm and Abl proteins function cooperatively at adherens junctions in both the CNS and epidermis; critical for embryonic epithelial morphogenesis regulating cell shape changes and cell migration. Plays a critical role in transducing embryonic midline repulsive cues; may regulate cytoskeletal dynamics underlying a growth cone's response to midline cues. The ability of pCC/MP2 axons to correctly interpret midline repulsive cues and stay on the ipsilateral side is dependent on the strength of both Slit/robo and Abl-dependent signaling pathways.

Toll-6
Toll-like receptor 6; Toll-related receptor which binds to the neurotrophin spz5. Functions in olfactory circuit assembly by promoting synaptic partner matching between olfactory receptor neurons (ORN) axons and projection neurons (PN) dendrites partners in the antennal lobe. Involved in the targeting of specific classes of PN dendrites (Va1d, Va1v, DC3 and DA1). Functions with Toll-7 to regulate motor axon targeting and neuronal survival in the central nervous system (CNS). Possibly functions with 18w and Toll-8 during convergent extension, to help direct proper planar cell polarity, [...]
     
0.826
unc-5
Netrin receptor unc-5; Receptor for netrin required for motor axon guidance. Mediates both short- and long-range axon motor repulsion in the developing nervous system upon ligand binding. Also involved in glial migration. While short-range repulsion requires both fra and unc-5, long-range repulsion only requires unc-5.
   
 
 0.810
Sdc
Syndecan (Sdc) encodes a transmembrane heparan sulfate proteoglycan. It binds to the products of sli and robo1 to regulate axon guidance at the CNS midline, and it cooperates with the product of Lar to promote synapse growth at the larval neuromuscular junction.
    
 
 0.804
Sema5c
Semaphorin 5c (Sema5c) encodes a member of the Semaphorins family, which are membrane and secreted short-range signaling proteins. The product of Sema5c is involved in olfactory behavior.
      
 0.800
dlp
Dally-like, isoform A; Dally-like (dlp) encodes a glypican that regulates the signaling strength and range of the morphogens encoded by hh and wg; Belongs to the glypican family.
