2 items (human) - 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:
	SMAD4	Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4; In muscle physiology, plays a central role in the balance between atrophy and hypertrophy. When recruited by MSTN, promotes atrophy response via phosphorylated SMAD2/4. MSTN decrease causes SMAD4 release and subsequent recruitment by the BMP pathway to promote hypertrophy via phosphorylated SMAD1/5/8. Acts synergistically with SMAD1 and YY1 in bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-mediated cardiac- specific gene expression. Binds to SMAD binding elements (SBEs) (5'- GTCT/AGAC-3') within BMP response element (BMPRE) of cardiac activating regions (By [...] (552 aa)
	ZC3H8	Zinc finger CCCH domain-containing protein 8; Acts as a transcriptional repressor of the GATA3 promoter. Sequence-specific DNA-binding factor that binds to the 5'-AGGTCTC-3' sequence within the negative cis-acting element intronic regulatory region (IRR) of the GATA3 gene (By similarity). Component of the little elongation complex (LEC), a complex required to regulate small nuclear RNA (snRNA) gene transcription by RNA polymerase II and III. Induces thymocyte apoptosis when overexpressed, which may indicate a role in regulation of thymocyte homeostasis. (291 aa)
