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:
LHX2LIM homeodomain. (400 aa)
SHHSonic hedgehog protein N-product; [Sonic hedgehog protein]: The C-terminal part of the sonic hedgehog protein precursor displays an autoproteolysis and a cholesterol transferase activity (By similarity). Both activities result in the cleavage of the full-length protein into two parts (ShhN and ShhC) followed by the covalent attachment of a cholesterol moiety to the C-terminal of the newly generated ShhN (By similarity). Both activities occur in the reticulum endoplasmic (By similarity). Once cleaved, ShhC is degraded in the endoplasmic reticulum (By similarity). (425 aa)
NEUROD1Neurogenic differentiation factor 1; Acts as a transcriptional activator. Mediates transcriptional activation by binding to E box-containing promoter. Acts as a differentiation factor during neurogenesis. Induces photoreceptor cell overproduction in vivo and de novo generation in vitro. May play a role in photoreceptor cell production. Binds DNA on E-box consensus sequence 5'-CANNTG-3'. (357 aa)
MYT1LMyelin transcription factor 1 like. (1190 aa)
TYRTyrosinase; This is a copper-containing oxidase that functions in the formation of pigments such as melanins and other polyphenolic compounds. Catalyzes the initial and rate limiting step in the cascade of reactions leading to melanin production from tyrosine. In addition to hydroxylating tyrosine to DOPA (3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine), also catalyzes the oxidation of DOPA to DOPA-quinone, and possibly the oxidation of DHI (5,6-dihydroxyindole) to indole-5,6 quinone. (537 aa)
FGF2Fibroblast growth factor 2; Acts as a ligand for FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. Also acts as an integrin ligand which is required for FGF2 signaling. Plays an important role in the regulation of cell survival, cell division, cell differentiation and cell migration. Functions as a potent mitogen in vitro. Can induce angiogenesis; Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family. (158 aa)
RAX2Retinal homeobox protein Rx1; Plays a critical role in eye formation by regulating the initial specification of retinal cells and/or their subsequent proliferation; Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily. (228 aa)
KLF4Uncharacterized protein. (111 aa)
NANOGHomeobox protein NANOG; Transcription factor required for the maintenance of pluripotency and self-renewal of embryonic stem cells. Belongs to the Nanog homeobox family. (308 aa)
RAXRetinal homeobox protein Rx2; Plays a critical role in eye formation by regulating the initial specification of retinal cells and/or their subsequent proliferation. (317 aa)
OTX2Homeodomain transcription factor. (289 aa)
SOX2Transcription factor SOX-2; Transcriptional activator. Binds to the consensus DNA sequence 5'-TCATTGTTGTTG-3'. In cooperation with other transcription factors, binds to the promoter sequence of the crystallin gene to activate transcription in the lens. Downstream SRRT target that mediates the promotion of neural stem cell self-renewal (By similarity). Keeps neural cells undifferentiated by counteracting the activity of proneural proteins and suppresses neuronal differentiation. May function as a switch in neuronal development. (312 aa)
MSX2Homeobox protein MSX-2; Acts as a transcriptional regulator in bone development. Binds to DNA (By similarity). Morphogenetic role; Belongs to the Msh homeobox family. (259 aa)
ASCL1BHLH domain-containing protein. (219 aa)
VSX2Visual system homeobox 2; Acts as a transcriptional regulator (By similarity). Plays a significant role in the specification and morphogenesis of the sensory retina (By similarity). Mediates differentiation of V2a interneurons by repression of motor neuron gene transcription, via competitively binding to response elements that are activated by the ISL1-LHX3 complex. May also participate in the development of the cells of the inner nuclear layer, particularly bipolar cells (By similarity); Belongs to the paired homeobox family. (377 aa)
LIN28AProtein lin-28 homolog A; RNA-binding protein that inhibits processing of pre-let-7 miRNAs and regulates translation of mRNAs that control developmental timing, pluripotency and metabolism. Seems to recognize a common structural G-quartet (G4) feature in its miRNA and mRNA targets (By similarity). 'Translational enhancer' that drives specific mRNAs to polysomes and increases the efficiency of protein synthesis. Its association with the translational machinery and target mRNAs results in an increased number of initiation events per molecule of mRNA and, indirectly, in mRNA stabilization [...] (202 aa)
CDK2Cyclin dependent kinase 2; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. (298 aa)
NEUROG1Neurogenin 1. (179 aa)
SIX3Homeobox protein SIX3; Transcriptional regulator which can act as both a transcriptional repressor and activator by binding a ATTA homeodomain core recognition sequence on these target genes. During forebrain development represses WNT1 expression allowing zona limitans intrathalamica formation and thereby ensuring proper anterio-posterior patterning of the diencephalon and formation of the rostral diencephalon. Acts as a direct upstream activator of SHH expression in the rostral diencephalon ventral midline and that in turn SHH maintains its expression. In addition, Six3 activity is re [...] (314 aa)
GAPDHGlyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; Has both glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and nitrosylase activities, thereby playing a role in glycolysis and nuclear functions, respectively. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is a key enzyme in glycolysis that catalyzes the first step of the pathway by converting D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) into 3-phospho-D-glyceroyl phosphate. Modulates the organization and assembly of the cytoskeleton. Also participates in nuclear events including transcription, RNA transport, DNA replication and apoptosis. Nuclear functions are proba [...] (333 aa)
