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

Mt4Metallothionein-4; Seems to bind zinc and copper. Could play a special role in regulating zinc metabolism during the differentiation of stratified epithelia; Belongs to the metallothionein superfamily. Type 1 family. (62 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Mt3
Metallothionein-3; Binds heavy metals. Contains three zinc and three copper atoms per polypeptide chain and only a negligible amount of cadmium. Inhibits survival and neurite formation of cortical neurons in vitro (By similarity); Belongs to the metallothionein superfamily. Type 1 family.
  
   
 0.891
Gpx6
Glutathione peroxidase 6; Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family.
   
  
 0.613
Gpx2
Glutathione peroxidase 2.
   
  
 0.609
Atox1
Copper transport protein ATOX1; Binds and deliver cytosolic copper to the copper ATPase proteins. May be important in cellular antioxidant defense (By similarity); Belongs to the ATX1 family.
   
  
 0.605
Gpx5
Epididymal secretory glutathione peroxidase; Protects cells and enzymes from oxidative damage, by catalyzing the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxides and organic hydroperoxide, by glutathione. May constitute a glutathione peroxidase-like protective system against peroxide damage in sperm membrane lipids.
   
  
 0.605
Gpx7
Glutathione peroxidase 7; It protects esophageal epithelia from hydrogen peroxide- induced oxidative stress. It suppresses acidic bile acid-induced reactive oxigen species (ROS) and protects against oxidative DNA damage and double-strand breaks (By similarity).
   
  
 0.604
Gpx3
Glutathione peroxidase 3; Protects cells and enzymes from oxidative damage, by catalyzing the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxides and organic hydroperoxide, by glutathione.
   
  
 0.601
Gpx1
Glutathione peroxidase 1; Protects the hemoglobin in erythrocytes from oxidative breakdown.
   
  
 0.598
Atp7b
Copper-transporting ATPase 2; Copper ion transmembrane transporter involved in the export of copper out of the cells, such as the efflux of hepatic copper into the bile.
      
 0.597
Atp7a
Copper-transporting ATPase 1; May supply copper to copper-requiring proteins within the secretory pathway, when localized in the trans-Golgi network. Under conditions of elevated extracellular copper, it relocalized to the plasma membrane where it functions in the efflux of copper from cells (By similarity); Belongs to the cation transport ATPase (P-type) (TC 3.A.3) family. Type IB subfamily.
