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:
RAXRetinal homeobox protein Rx; Plays a critical role in eye formation by regulating the initial specification of retinal cells and/or their subsequent proliferation. Binds to the photoreceptor conserved element-I (PCE- 1/Ret 1) in the photoreceptor cell-specific arrestin promoter. (346 aa)
ALX4Homeobox protein aristaless-like 4; Transcription factor involved in skull and limb development. Plays an essential role in craniofacial development, skin and hair follicle development; Belongs to the paired homeobox family. (411 aa)
PITX2Pituitary homeobox 2; Controls cell proliferation in a tissue-specific manner and is involved in morphogenesis. During embryonic development, exerts a role in the expansion of muscle progenitors. May play a role in the proper localization of asymmetric organs such as the heart and stomach. Isoform PTX2C is involved in left-right asymmetry the developing embryo (By similarity); Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily. (324 aa)
SHOX2Short stature homeobox protein 2; May be a growth regulator and have a role in specifying neural systems involved in processing somatosensory information, as well as in face and body structure formation; Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily. (355 aa)
SHOXShort stature homeobox protein; Controls fundamental aspects of growth and development; Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily. (292 aa)
ARXHomeobox protein ARX; Transcription factor required for normal brain development. May be important for maintenance of specific neuronal subtypes in the cerebral cortex and axonal guidance in the floor plate; Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily. (562 aa)
PAX7Paired box protein Pax-7; Transcription factor playing a role in myogenesis through regulation of muscle precursor cells proliferation. (520 aa)
DRGXDorsal root ganglia homeobox protein; Transcription factor required for the formation of correct projections from nociceptive sensory neurons to the dorsal horn of the spinal cord and normal perception of pain. (263 aa)
PRRX2Paired mesoderm homeobox protein 2; May play a role in the scarless healing of cutaneous wounds during the first two trimesters of development. Belongs to the paired homeobox family. (253 aa)
PITX3Pituitary homeobox 3; Transcriptional regulator which is important for the differentiation and maintenance of meso-diencephalic dopaminergic (mdDA) neurons during development. In addition to its importance during development, it also has roles in the long-term survival and maintenance of the mdDA neurons. Activates NR4A2/NURR1-mediated transcription of genes such as SLC6A3, SLC18A2, TH and DRD2 which are essential for development of mdDA neurons. Acts by decreasing the interaction of NR4A2/NURR1 with the corepressor NCOR2/SMRT which acts through histone deacetylases (HDACs) to keep pro [...] (302 aa)
DMBX1Diencephalon/mesencephalon homeobox protein 1; Functions as a transcriptional repressor. May repress OTX2- mediated transactivation by forming a heterodimer with OTX2 on the P3C (5'-TAATCCGATTA-3') sequence. Required for brain development (By similarity); Belongs to the paired homeobox family. (377 aa)
ALX1ALX homeobox protein 1; Sequence-specific DNA-binding transcription factor that binds palindromic sequences within promoters and may activate or repress the transcription of a subset of genes. Most probably regulates the expression of genes involved in the development of mesenchyme-derived craniofacial structures. Early on in development, it plays a role in forebrain mesenchyme survival. May also induce epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) through the expression of SNAI1. Belongs to the paired homeobox family. (326 aa)
OTPHomeobox protein orthopedia; Probably involved in the differentiation of hypothalamic neuroendocrine cells. (325 aa)
PITX1Pituitary homeobox 1; Sequence-specific transcription factor that binds gene promoters and activates their transcription. May play a role in the development of anterior structures, and in particular, the brain and facies and in specifying the identity or structure of hindlimb. Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily. (314 aa)
VSX2Visual system homeobox 2; Acts as a transcriptional regulator through binding to DNA at the consensus sequence 5'-[TC]TAATT[AG][AG]-3' upstream of gene promoters. 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, such as VSX1. Acts as a positive transcriptional regulator of NXNL1; regulation is significantly increased in synergy with VSX1 (By similar [...] (361 aa)
PRRX1Paired mesoderm homeobox protein 1; Acts as a transcriptional regulator of muscle creatine kinase (MCK) and so has a role in the establishment of diverse mesodermal muscle types. The protein binds to an A/T-rich element in the muscle creatine enhancer (By similarity); Belongs to the paired homeobox family. (245 aa)
