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

Adam7Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 7; May play an important role in male reproduction including sperm maturation and gonadotrope function. This is a non catalytic metalloprotease-like protein. (789 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Lcn9
Epididymal-specific lipocalin-9.
   
  
 0.771
Lcn8
Epididymal-specific lipocalin-8; May play a role in male fertility. May act as a retinoid carrier protein within the epididymis.
   
  
 0.744
Gpx5
Epididymal secretory glutathione peroxidase; Protects cells and enzymes from oxidative damage, by catalyzing the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxides and organic hydroperoxide, by glutathione. May constitute a glutathione peroxidase-like protective system against peroxide damage in sperm membrane lipids.
   
  
 0.717
Lcn5
Epididymal-specific lipocalin-5, major form; Associates with spermatozoa in the epididymal fluid but does not bind tightly to them. Binds both all-trans and 13-cis retinoic acid. May act as a retinoid carrier protein which is required for epididymal function and/or sperm maturation. Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.
   
  
 0.679
Zfp511
Zinc finger protein 511; May be involved in transcriptional regulation.
 
    
 0.623
Cst11
Cystatin-11; Has antibacterial activity against the Gram-negative bacteria E.coli. May play a role in sperm maturation and fertilization. Belongs to the cystatin family.
   
  
 0.597
Adam22
Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 22; Probable ligand for integrin in the brain. This is a non catalytic metalloprotease-like protein. Involved in regulation of cell adhesion and spreading and in inhibition of cell proliferation (By similarity). Neuronal receptor for LGI1.
    
 
0.587
Ces5a
Carboxylesterase 5A; Involved in the detoxification of xenobiotics and in the activation of ester and amide prodrugs; Belongs to the type-B carboxylesterase/lipase family.
   
    0.581
Adam28
Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 28; May play a role in organogenesis and organ-specific functions such as thymic T-cell development.
  
 
0.566
Adam2
Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 2; Sperm surface membrane protein that may be involved in sperm- egg plasma membrane adhesion and fusion during fertilization. Could have a direct role in sperm-zona binding or migration of sperm from the uterus into the oviduct. Interactions with egg membrane could be mediated via binding between its disintegrin-like domain to one or more integrins receptors on the egg. This is a non catalytic metalloprotease-like protein (By similarity).
