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:
AQP8Aquaporin-8; Forms a water-specific channel; mercury-sensitive. Not permeable to glycerol or urea; Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family. (261 aa)
AQP7Aquaporin-7; Forms a channel that mediates water and glycerol transport across cell membranes at neutral pH. The channel is also permeable to urea. Plays an important role in body energy homeostasis under conditions that promote lipid catabolism, giving rise to glycerol and free fatty acids. Mediates glycerol export from adipocytes. After release into the blood stream, glycerol is used for gluconeogenesis in the liver to maintain normal blood glucose levels and prevent fasting hypoglycemia. Required for normal glycerol reabsorption in the kidney (By similarity). Belongs to the MIP/aqua [...] (342 aa)
AQP10Aquaporin-10; [Isoform 1]: Water channel that mediates water transport across cell membranes irrespective of the cytosolic pH. The channel is permeable to glycerol, especially when the cytosolic pH is acidified. Contributes to adipocyte water and glycerol permeability, and may thereby contribute to the utilization of glycerol derived from phospholipid degradation. May contribute to water transport in the intestine (Probable). Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family. (301 aa)
AQP11Aquaporin-11; Channel protein that facilitates the transport of water, glycerol and hydrogen peroxide across membrane of cell or organelles guaranteeing intracellular homeostasis in several organes like liver, kidney and brain. In situation of stress, participates in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis by regulating redox homeostasis through the transport of hydrogen peroxide across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane thereby regulating the oxidative stress through the NADPH oxidase 2 pathway. Plays a role by maintaining an environment suitable for translation or protein foldings in [...] (271 aa)
AQP12AAquaporin-12A; Aquaporins facilitate the transport of water and small neutral solutes across cell membranes; Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family. AQP11/AQP12 subfamily. (307 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 (By similarity). Plays a role in cell- to-cell adhesion and facilitates gap junction coupling ; Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family. (263 aa)
