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

rstIrregular chiasm C-roughest protein; Roughest (rst) encodes a multi-purpose transmembrane protein that is well studied in the fly eye and muscle during development. It interacts with the transmembrane ligand encoded by hbs to guide cell movement. (764 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sns
Sticks and stones (sns) encodes a single-pass transmembrane protein of the immunoglobulin superfamily, which mediates cell-cell recognition and adhesion. The product of sns marks the fusion competent population of myoblasts. It also contributes to formation and function of the nephrocyte diaphragm and cell sorting within the developing ommatidia.
   
0.981
hbs
Hibris, isoform B; Hibris (hbs) encodes a Ig repeat transmembrane protein with a fibronectin type III domain. It functions as a receptor involved in muscle cell fusion.
   
 
0.973
cindr
CIN85 and CD2AP related (cindr) encodes an adaptor protein that links cell surface junctions and adhesion proteins with multiple components of the actin cytoskeleton. It regulates cytoskeletal dynamics, eye patterning and endocytosis. It also cooperates with the product of scra to promote intercellular bridge stability during cytokinesis.
    
 
 0.775
Vrp1
Verprolin 1, isoform G; Verprolin 1 (Vrp1) encodes the sole Drosophila homolog of the conserved Verprolin/WASp-interacting-protein family of actin regulators. It facilitates myoblast fusion in somatic muscles by recruiting the branched-actin polymerization machinery to sites of myoblast-myotube attachment and fusion.
    
 
 0.694
Dl
Neurogenic locus protein delta; Acts as a ligand for Notch (N) receptor. Essential for proper differentiation of ectoderm. Dl is required for the correct separation of neural and epidermal cell lineages. Fringe (fng) acts in the Golgi to determine the type of O-linked fucose on the EGF modules in N, altering the ability of N to bind with Delta (Dl). O-fut1 also has a role in modulating the interaction.
   
   0.670
rols
Rolling pebbles (rols) encodes a protein required for myoblast fusion in founder cells. it interacts with the membrane spanning Immunoglobulin superfamily protein encoded by kirre and with the product of Mhcl.
   
 
 0.667
dock
Dreadlocks, isoform B; It is involved in the biological process described with: axon guidance; myoblast fusion; negative regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway.
   
 0.625
kirre
Kin of irre (kirre) encodes a transmembrane protein of the Ig superfamily that is involved in heterotypic interactions with the product of sns. Interactions with intracellular adaptors regulate cytoskeleton dynamics. Its biological roles include myoblast aggregation and fusion, nephrocyte diaphragm formation, and cell sorting in the eye and wing imaginal discs.
  
0.624
ed
Echinoid, isoform A; Echinoid (ed) encodes a cell adhesion molecule of adherens junctions that mediate cell adhesion/recognition. It participates in multiple signaling pathways including Egfr, Notch and Hippo during organogenesis. It is also required in multiple steps of dorsal closure during embryogenesis.
   
0.557
siz
Schizo, isoform B; Schizo (siz) encodes an Arf1 guanine nucleotide exchange factor involved in commissural axon guidance and myoblast fusion.
   
  
 0.555
