STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
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

Cabp5Calcium-binding protein 5; Inhibits calcium-dependent inactivation of L-type calcium channel and shifts voltage dependence of activation to more depolarized membrane potentials. Involved in the transmission of light signals. May positively regulate neurotransmitter vesicle endocytosis and exocytosis in a salt-dependent manner. May play a role in the extension and network organization of neurites. (173 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Bsph2
Binder of sperm protein homolog 2; Binds sperm in vitro but has no effect on sperm capacitation. Also binds gelatin and heparin, but not chondroitin sulfate B or phospholipid liposomes.

Alpk1
Alpha-protein kinase 1; Serine/threonine-protein kinase that detects bacterial pathogen-associated molecular pattern metabolites (PAMPs) and initiates an innate immune response, a critical step for pathogen elimination and engagement of adaptive immunity (By similarity). Specifically recognizes and binds ADP-D-glycero-beta-D-manno-heptose (ADP-Heptose), a potent PAMP present in all Gram-negative and some Gram-positive bacteria. ADP-Heptose-binding stimulates its kinase activity to phosphorylate and activate TIFA, triggering proinflammatory NF-kappa-B signaling (By similarity). May be i [...]

Guca1b
Guanylyl cyclase-activating protein 2; Stimulates two retinal guanylyl cyclase (GCs) GUCY2E and GUCY2F when free calcium ions concentration is low, and inhibits GUCY2E and GUCY2F when free calcium ions concentration is elevated (By similarity). This Ca(2+)-sensitive regulation of GCs is a key event in recovery of the dark state of rod photoreceptors following light exposure (By similarity). May be involved in cone photoreceptor response and recovery of response in bright light.
   
 
 0.594
Myo1b
Unconventional myosin-Ib; Motor protein that may participate in process critical to neuronal development and function such as cell migration, neurite outgrowth and vesicular transport.
    
 
 0.576
Guca1a
Guanylyl cyclase-activating protein 1; Stimulates retinal guanylyl cyclase when free calcium ions concentration is low and inhibits guanylyl cyclase when free calcium ions concentration is elevated (By similarity). This Ca(2+)-sensitive regulation of retinal guanylyl cyclase is a key event in recovery of the dark state of rod photoreceptors following light exposure (By similarity). May be involved in cone photoreceptor light response and recovery of response in bright light.

Grm6
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 6; G-protein coupled receptor for glutamate. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors, such as adenylate cyclase. Signaling inhibits adenylate cyclase activity (By similarity). Signaling stimulates TRPM1 channel activity and Ca(2+) uptake. Required for normal vision.
   
 
 0.537
Wdr90
WD repeat-containing protein 90; Required for efficient primary cilium formation.
    
 
 0.511
Guk1
Guanylate kinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of GMP to GDP. Essential enzyme for recycling GMP and indirectly, cyclic GMP (cGMP). Involved in the cGMP metabolism in photoreceptors (By similarity). Belongs to the guanylate kinase family.
   
 
 0.506
Vsx1
Visual system homeobox 1; Binds to the 37-bp core of the locus control region (LCR) of the red/green visual pigment gene cluster (By similarity). May regulate the activity of the LCR and the cone opsin genes at earlier stages of development (By similarity). Dispensable in early retinal development.
   
  
 0.501
Rs1
Retinoschisin; Binds negatively charged membrane lipids, such as phosphatidylserine and phosphoinositides. May play a role in cell-cell adhesion processes in the retina, via homomeric interaction between octamers present on the surface of two neighboring cells (By similarity). Required for normal structure and function of the retina.
