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.

PctpPhosphatidylcholine transfer protein; Catalyzes the transfer of phosphatidylcholine between membranes. Binds a single lipid molecule. (214 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Acot13
Acyl-coenzyme A thioesterase 13; Acyl-CoA thioesterases are a group of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free fatty acid and coenzyme A (CoASH), providing the potential to regulate intracellular levels of acyl-CoAs, free fatty acids and CoASH. Has acyl-CoA thioesterase activity towards medium (C12) and long-chain (C18) fatty acyl-CoA substrates. Can also hydrolyze 3-hydroxyphenylacetyl-CoA (in vitro). May play a role in controlling adaptive thermogenesis.

Stard5
StAR-related lipid transfer protein 5; May be involved in the intracellular transport of sterols or other lipids. May bind cholesterol or other sterols.
   
  
 0.795
Stard6
StAR-related lipid transfer protein 6; May be involved in the intracellular transport of sterols or other lipids. May bind cholesterol or other sterols (By similarity).
   
  
 0.792
Stard3
StAR-related lipid transfer protein 3; Sterol-binding protein that mediates cholesterol transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to endosomes (By similarity). Creates contact site between the endoplasmic reticulum and late endosomes: localizes to late endosome membranes and contacts the endoplasmic reticulum via interaction with VAPA and VAPB (By similarity). Acts as a lipid transfer protein that redirects sterol to the endosome at the expense of the cell membrane and favors membrane formation inside endosomes (By similarity). May also mediate cholesterol transport between other membra [...]

Stard4
StAR-related lipid transfer protein 4; Involved in the intracellular transport of cholesterol. Binds cholesterol or other sterols.

Star
Steroidogenic acute regulatory protein, mitochondrial; Plays a key role in steroid hormone synthesis by enhancing the metabolism of cholesterol into pregnenolone. Transporter that binds to and transport cholesterol through the intermembrane space of the mitochondrion.
   
  
 0.673
Stard8
StAR-related lipid transfer protein 8; Accelerates GTPase activity of RHOA and CDC42, but not RAC1. Stimulates the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate by PLCD1 (By similarity).
   
  
 0.580
Stard9
StAR-related lipid transfer protein 9; Microtubule-dependent motor protein required for spindle pole assembly during mitosis. Required to stabilize the pericentriolar material (PCM) (By similarity).
      
 0.551
Gramd1c
Protein Aster-C; Cholesterol transporter that mediates non-vesicular transport of cholesterol from the plasma membrane (PM) to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Contains unique domains for binding cholesterol and the PM, thereby serving as a molecular bridge for the transfer of cholesterol from the PM to the ER. Plays a crucial role in cholesterol homeostasis and has the unique ability to localize to the PM based on the level of membrane cholesterol. In lipid-poor conditions localizes to the ER membrane and in response to excess cholesterol in the PM is recruited to the endoplasmic retic [...]

Stard10
START domain-containing protein 10; Phospholipid transfer protein that preferentially selects lipid species containing a palmitoyl or stearoyl chain on the sn-1 and an unsaturated fatty acyl chain (18:1 or 18:2) on the sn-2 position. Able to transfer phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidyetanolamline (PE) between membranes (By similarity). May play metabolic roles in sperm maturation or fertilization.
