2 items (mouse) - STRING 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

Your Input:
	Mbd3	Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 3; Acts as transcriptional repressor and plays a role in gene silencing. Does not bind DNA by itself. Binds to DNA with a preference for sites containing methylated CpG dinucleotides (in vitro). Binds to a lesser degree DNA containing unmethylated CpG dinucleotides (By similarity). Recruits histone deacetylases and DNA methyltransferases. (285 aa)
	Slc7a6	Y+L amino acid transporter 2; Involved in the sodium-independent uptake of dibasic amino acids and sodium-dependent uptake of some neutral amino acids. Requires coexpression with SLC3A2/4F2hc to mediate the uptake of arginine, leucine and glutamine. Also acts as an arginine/glutamine exchanger, following an antiport mechanism for amino acid transport, influencing arginine release in exchange for extracellular amino acids. Plays a role in nitric oxide synthesis via transport of L-arginine. Involved in the transport of L-arginine in monocytes. Reduces uptake of ornithine in retinal pigme [...] (515 aa)
