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

daDaughterless (da) encodes a class I bHLH protein important for sex determination and dosage compensation by controlling the feminizing switch gene Sxl. It participates in transcriptional regulation of a wide variety processes, including oogenesis, neurogenesis, myogenesis and cell proliferation. (775 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
emc
Protein extra-macrochaetae; Participates in sensory organ patterning by antagonizing the neurogenic activity of the Achaete-scute complex (AS-C). It lacks a basic DNA-binding domain but is able to form heterodimers with other HLH proteins, thereby inhibiting DNA binding. May sequester proneural proteins in complexes inefficient for DNA interaction. EMC also affects vein differentiation. Inhibits the activity of AS-C proteins by forming an non-DNA binding heterodimer.
   
 
 0.994
HLH3B
Helix loop helix protein 3B; Protein dimerization activity; RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. It is involved in the biological process described with: regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II.
    
 0.983
sc
Achaete-scute complex protein T4; AS-C proteins are involved in the determination of the neuronal precursors in the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system. Also involved in sex determination and dosage compensation.
   
 
 0.960
nau
Nautilus (nau) encodes a protein that belongs to the bHLH family of transcription factors. It is the unique Drosophila ortholog of the mammalian family of bHLH Myogenic Regulatory Factors. It is involved in somatic muscle myogenesis.
   
 0.952
ato
Protein atonal; Developmental protein involved in neurogenesis. Required for the formation of chordotonal organs and photoreceptors. Seems to bind to E boxes. Specifically required for the photoreceptor R8 selection.
    
 
 0.948
l(1)sc
Achaete-scute complex protein T3; AS-C proteins are involved in the determination of the neuronal precursors in the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system.
   
 
 0.913
ac
Achaete-scute complex protein T5; Achaete (ac) encodes a BHLH transcription factor that interacts antagonistically with the Notch signaling pathway to promote neural precursor formation. Its major role is in nervous system development.
   
 
 0.901
Chi
Chip, isoform B; Chip (Chi) encodes a transcriptional co-factor that regulates gene expression. It contributes to the regulation of Notch signaling, leg development and axon guidance.
   
 0.899
arm
Armadillo segment polarity protein; Isoform neural may associate with CadN and participate in the transmission of developmental information. Can associate with alpha- catenin. Isoform cytoplasmic accumulates through wg signaling; arm function in wg signal transduction is required early in development for determination of neuroblast fate. Arm and Abl proteins function cooperatively at adherens junctions in both the CNS and epidermis. Belongs to the beta-catenin family.
   
 
 0.864
twi
Twist (twi) encodes a transcription factor required for mesoderm cell fate. The product of twi is essential for gastrulation, the development of mesodermal derivatives, including somatic and visceral muscle, fat body and maintenance of muscle stem cells.
