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

cherFilamin-A; Cheerio (cher) encodes a dimeric F-actin crosslinking protein of the filamin protein family. It functions to organize the F-actin cytoskeleton in multiple contexts including ovarian germline ring canals, migrating somatic cells, and neuronal growth cones. (2429 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Zyx
Zyx102.44 isoform; Zyxin (Zyx) encodes an actin cytoskeleton regulator found at cell-matrix junctions and cell-cell adherens junctions. Its roles include mechanotransduction and regulation of the Hippo signaling pathway.
   
 0.939
Vinc
Vinculin (Vinc) encodes a key mechanoeffector of cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix adhesion. It binds to the products of rhea and alpha-Cat, when they are stretched by force, and links them to actin. Vinc mutant flies are viable and fertile although mild defects have been documented in muscle attachment and heart function; Belongs to the vinculin/alpha-catenin family.

mys
Integrin beta-PS; Integrin alpha-PS1/beta-PS is a receptor for laminin. Integrin alpha-PS2/beta-PS is a receptor for Tig, wb and Ten-m. Contributes to endodermal integrity and adhesion between the midgut epithelium and the surrounding visceral muscle. Essential for migration of the primordial midgut cells and for maintaining, but not establishing, cell polarity in the midgut epithelium. The two beta subunits mediate midgut migration by distinct mechanisms: beta-PS requires rhea/talin and Itgbn does not. Required for rhea/talin correct cellular localization in the midgut. Required for m [...]

Pak
P21-activated kinase (Pak) encodes a serine/threonine effector kinase for the small GTPases Rac and the product of Cdc42 involved in cytoskeletal regulation. The product of Pak contributes to growth cone guidance, synaptic development, and epithelial morphogenesis in both the ovary and embryo.
   
 0.860
Cdc42
Cdc42 (Cdc42) encodes a GTPase signaling protein that acts as a molecular switch and functions as key regulator of the actin cytoskeleton. It plays a central role in diverse biological processes including actin cytoskeleton organization, mophogenesis, hemocyte migration, cell polarity, and wound repair.
    
 0.851
Brca2
Breast cancer type 2 susceptibility protein homolog; BRCA2, DNA repair associated (Brca2) encodes the ortholog of the human BRCA2 gene, which acts as a tumor suppressor. It is involved in double-strand break repair via homologous recombination. During meiosis in females it is involved in DNA repair and in the activation of a meiotic checkpoint. It co-immunoprecipitates with the checkpoint protein encoded by Rad9.
    
 
 0.847
rhea
Rhea, isoform B; Rhea (rhea) encodes fly talin, a large adaptor protein that is essential for all adhesive functions of integrins. It also has at least one role independent of integrins: repressing shg transcription in follicle cells.
   
 
 0.844
Pax
Paxillin, isoform F; Paxillin (Pax) encodes an adaptor protein that is generally associated with integrins. It is not required for most integrin-mediated adhesion or migration events, but is required for viability beyond pupal stages. It controls the size of some muscles by regulating the rate of cell fusion.
   
 
 0.773
Itgbn
Integrin beta-nu; Contributes to endodermal integrity and adhesion between the midgut epithelium and the surrounding visceral muscle. Essential for migration of the primordial midgut cells and for maintaining, but not establishing, cell polarity in the midgut epithelium. Can only partially compensate for the loss of beta-PS integrin during primordial midgut cell migration. The two beta subunits mediate midgut migration by distinct mechanisms: beta-PS requires rhea/Talin and beta-nu does not. Integrin alpha-PS3/beta-nu is required for effective phagocytosis of apoptotic cells during emb [...]

flr
Actin-interacting protein 1; Induces disassembly of actin filaments in conjunction with ADF/cofilin family proteins. Essential for organismal and cell viability. Required for the development of normal wing cell planar polarity.
