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:
GPX5Epididymal secretory glutathione peroxidase; May constitute a glutathione peroxidase-like protective system against peroxide damage in sperm membrane lipids. Since the purified porcine enzyme has very little activity towards hydrogen peroxide or organic hydroperoxides the protective effect is not likely to be exerted by its enzymatic activity. Instead, may protect sperm from premature acrosome reaction in the epididymis by binding to lipid peroxides, which might otherwise interact with phospholipase A2 and induce the acrosome reaction. (219 aa)
GPX8Glutathione peroxidase; Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family. (158 aa)
GPX7Glutathione peroxidase; Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family. (317 aa)
GPX6Glutathione peroxidase; Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family. (220 aa)
GPX3Glutathione peroxidase; Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family. (225 aa)
GPX1Glutathione peroxidase 1; Protects the hemoglobin in erythrocytes from oxidative breakdown. (205 aa)
CATCatalase; Occurs in almost all aerobically respiring organisms and serves to protect cells from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide. Promotes growth of cells; Belongs to the catalase family. (550 aa)
GPX2Glutathione peroxidase; Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family. (190 aa)
