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:
CrygsGamma-crystallin S; Crystallins are the dominant structural components of the vertebrate eye lens. (178 aa)
MipLens fiber major intrinsic protein; Water channel. Channel activity is down-regulated by CALM when cytoplasmic Ca(2+) levels are increased. May be responsible for regulating the osmolarity of the lens. Interactions between homotetramers from adjoining membranes may stabilize cell junctions in the eye lens core. Plays a role in cell-to-cell adhesion and facilitates gap junction coupling (By similarity). Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family. (263 aa)
Bfsp2Phakinin; Required for the correct formation and organization of lens intermediate filaments as part of a complex composed of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA. (416 aa)
CryaaAlpha-crystallin A chain; Contributes to the transparency and refractive index of the lens (By similarity). Has chaperone-like activity, preventing aggregation of various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions (By similarity). Required for the correct formation of lens intermediate filaments as part of a complex composed of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA (By similarity). (196 aa)
CryabAlpha-crystallin B chain; May contribute to the transparency and refractive index of the lens. Has chaperone-like activity, preventing aggregation of various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions. (175 aa)
Bfsp1Filensin C-terminal fragment; Required for the correct formation of lens intermediate filaments as part of a complex composed of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA (By similarity). Involved in altering the calcium regulation of MIP water permeability (By similarity). (669 aa)
