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

OtpHomeobox protein orthopedia; Involved in the specification of hypothalamic neuroendocrine cells. Specifically required for the specification of diencephalic dopaminergic neurons of the A11 group. (325 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Sim1
Single-minded homolog 1; Transcriptional factor that may have pleiotropic effects during embryogenesis and in the adult.
   
  
 0.802
Arnt2
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator 2; Transcription factor that plays a role in the development of the hypothalamo-pituitary axis, postnatal brain growth, and visual and renal function. Specifically recognizes the xenobiotic response element (XRE).
      
 0.653
Six3
Homeobox protein SIX3; Transcriptional regulator which can act as both a transcriptional repressor and activator by binding a ATTA homeodomain core recognition sequence on these target genes. During forebrain development represses WNT1 expression allowing zona limitans intrathalamica formation and thereby ensuring proper anterio-posterior patterning of the diencephalon and formation of the rostral diencephalon. Acts as a direct upstream activator of SHH expression in the rostral diencephalon ventral midline and that in turn SHH maintains its expression. In addition, Six3 activity is re [...]
   
  
 0.649
Sim2
Single-minded homolog 2; Transcription factor that may be a master gene of CNS development in cooperation with Arnt. It may have pleiotropic effects in the tissues expressed during development.
   
  
 0.648
Foxb1
Forkhead box protein B1.
   
  
 0.628
Trh
Pro-thyrotropin-releasing hormone; Functions as a regulator of the biosynthesis of TSH in the anterior pituitary gland and as a neurotransmitter/ neuromodulator in the central and peripheral nervous systems.
   
  
 0.616
Nhlh2
Helix-loop-helix protein 2; May serve as DNA-binding protein and may be involved in the control of cell-type determination, possibly within the developing nervous system.
   
 
 0.596
Pou3f2
POU domain, class 3, transcription factor 2; Transcription factor that plays a key role in neuronal differentiation. Binds preferentially to the recognition sequence which consists of two distinct half-sites, ('GCAT') and ('TAAT'), separated by a non-conserved spacer region of 0, 2, or 3 nucleotides (By similarity). The combination of three transcription factors, ASCL1, POU3F2/BRN2 and MYT1L, is sufficient to reprogram fibroblasts and other somatic cells into induced neuronal (iN) cells in vitro. Acts downstream of ASCL1, accessing chromatin that has been opened by ASCL1, and promotes [...]
   
 
 0.590
Oxt
Oxytocin-neurophysin 1; Neurophysin 1 specifically binds oxytocin.
   
  
 0.548
Crh
Corticoliberin; Hormone regulating the release of corticotropin from pituitary gland. Induces NLRP6 in intestinal epithelial cells, hence may influence gut microbiota profile.
