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

uspProtein ultraspiracle; Receptor for ecdysone. May be an important modulator of insect metamorphosis. Plays an important part in embryonic and post- embryonic development. Binds to ecdysone response elements (ECRES) such as in the promoter region of s15 chorion gene; Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR2 subfamily. (508 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
EcR
Ecdysone receptor (EcR) encodes a protein that interacts with the product of usp to form the nuclear ecdysone receptor heterodimer, which modulates, in conjunction with co-activators and co-repressors, the activities of hundreds of genes in a tissue- and stage-specific way. EcR is widely expressed in embryonic and larval tissues and in some adult tissues where its activities (modulated by the hormone ecdysone) trigger both molting and metamorphosis.

tai
Taiman, isoform G; Taiman (tai) encodes an ecdysone receptor co-activator related to mammalian steroid receptor coactivator (SRC) proteins. It contributes to border cell migration.
    
 0.998
Smr
Smrter, isoform G; It is involved in the biological process described with: wing disc development; regulation of mitotic cell cycle; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; ovarian follicle cell development.

Hr96
Hormone receptor-like in 96 (Hr96) encodes a protein that binds cholesterol as a ligand and is required to maintain cholesterol and lipid homeostasis; Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily.
   
0.946
Eip75B
Ecdysone-induced protein 75B (Eip75B) encodes a nuclear receptor that interacts with the receptor encoded by Hr3. The product of Eip75B regulates feeding behavior, fat deposition, and developmental timing in response to nitric oxide (NO) signaling. It also acts downstream from NO in the nervous system, where it controls neuronal remodeling.

MED1
Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 1; Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in the regulated transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. Mediator functions as a bridge to convey information from gene- specific regulatory proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. Mediator is recruited to promoters by direct interactions with regulatory proteins and serves as a scaffold for the assembly of a functional preinitiation complex with RNA polymerase II and the general transcription factors (By similarity). Required [...]

Hr38
Hormone receptor-like in 38 (Hr38) encodes a protein that can heterodimerize with the U adult cuticle and for the proper uptake and storage of glycogen in larvae; Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR4 subfamily.
    
0.841
Lpt
Lost PHDs of trr (Lpt) encodes a core component of COMPASS-like nuclear receptor coactivator complexes. It is involved in histone methylation and dpp/BMP signaling regulation.
   
  0.798
ecd
Ecdysoneless (ecd) encodes a protein that physically interacts with several components of the U5 snRPN pre-mRNA splicing complex. Its loss result in intron retention within spok, accounting for ecdysone deficiency of some ecd mutants; Belongs to the ECD family.
      
 0.793
alien
COP9 signalosome complex subunit 2; Component of the COP9 signalosome complex (CSN), a complex involved in various cellular and developmental processes. The CSN complex is an essential regulator of the ubiquitin (Ubl) conjugation pathway by mediating the deneddylation of the cullin subunits of the SCF-type E3 ligase complexes, leading to decrease the Ubl ligase activity of SCF. The CSN complex plays an essential role in oogenesis and embryogenesis and is required for proper photoreceptor R cell differentiation and promote lamina glial cell migration or axon targeting. It also promotes [...]
