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:
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)
PAX6Paired box protein Pax-6; May be a transcription factor with important functions in eye and nasal development. (500 aa)
ENSGALP00000069661Histone H3; Belongs to the histone H3 family. (98 aa)
GATA3GATA-binding factor 3; Transcriptional activator which probably serves as a general switch factor for cell-specific development. It binds to DNA sites with the consensus sequence 5'-[AT]GATA[AG]-3' within regulatory regions of genes. (444 aa)
CASP3Caspase-3; Belongs to the peptidase C14A family. (283 aa)
NHLH2BHLH domain-containing protein. (138 aa)
NEUROG1Neurogenin 1. (179 aa)
CALB1Calbindin; Buffers cytosolic calcium. May stimulate a membrane Ca(2+)- ATPase and a 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase. (262 aa)
ENSGALP00000055994Histone H3; Belongs to the histone H3 family. (136 aa)
FOXG1Forkhead box protein G1; May determine the nasotemporal axis of the retina, and consequently specify the topographical projection of the retinal ganglion-cell axons to the tectum by controlling expression of their target genes. (451 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)
H3F3CHistone H3.3; Variant histone H3 which replaces conventional H3 in a wide range of nucleosomes in active genes. Constitutes the predominant form of histone H3 in non-dividing cells and is incorporated into chromatin independently of DNA synthesis. Deposited at sites of nucleosomal displacement throughout transcribed genes, suggesting that it represents an epigenetic imprint of transcriptionally active chromatin. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in [...] (136 aa)
FGF8Fibroblast growth factor 8; Plays an important role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell migration. Involved in initiation, outgrowth and patterning of the limbs; Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family. (214 aa)
CALB2Calretinin; Calretinin is a calcium-binding protein which is abundant in auditory neurons. (311 aa)
NHLH1BHLH domain-containing protein. (130 aa)
HIST1H3HHistone H3.2; Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. (136 aa)
ISL1Insulin gene enhancer protein ISL-1; Acts as a transcriptional regulator. Recognizes and binds to the consensus octamer binding site 5'-ATAATTAA- 3' in promoter of target genes. Plays a fundamental role in the gene regulatory network essential for retinal ganglion cell (RGC) differentiation. Binds to insulin gene enhancer sequences (By similarity). Defines subclasses of motoneurons that segregate into columns in the spinal cord and select distinct axon pathways. Acts in conjunction with LHX1, LHX3 and ISL2. Binds to insulin gene enhancer sequences (By similarity). Essential for heart d [...] (349 aa)
PAX2Paired-box containing protein Pax-2. (394 aa)
PVALBParvalbumin, muscle; In muscle, parvalbumin is thought to be involved in relaxation after contraction. It binds two calcium ions (By similarity); Belongs to the parvalbumin family. (134 aa)
