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

Defb8Beta-defensin 8; A synthetic peptide displays antimicrobial activities against S.aureus, P.aeruginosa, E.coli and B.cepacia. The antimicrobial activity against S.aureus, E.coli and B.cepacia is reduced in raised concentration of NaCl, but its action against P.aeruginosa is independent of NaCl concentration. (60 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Defb15
Beta-defensin 15; Has antibacterial activity.
      
 0.691
Defb35
Beta-defensin 35; Has antibacterial activity.
   
  
 0.581
Defb36
Beta-defensin 36; Has antibacterial activity; Belongs to the beta-defensin family.
      
 0.499
Defb12
Beta-defensin 12; Has antibacterial activity.
      
 0.485
Brip1
Fanconi anemia group J protein homolog; DNA-dependent ATPase and 5' to 3' DNA helicase required for the maintenance of chromosomal stability. Acts late in the 'Fanconi anemia' pathway, after FANCD2 ubiquitination. Involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination in a manner that depends on its association with BRCA1 (By similarity).
      
 0.478
Defb10
Beta-defensin 10; Has antibacterial activity.
   
  
 0.477
Palb2
Partner and localizer of BRCA2; Plays a critical role in homologous recombination repair (HRR) through its ability to recruit BRCA2 and RAD51 to DNA breaks. Strongly stimulates the DNA strand-invasion activity of RAD51, stabilizes the nucleoprotein filament against a disruptive BRC3-BRC4 polypeptide and helps RAD51 to overcome the suppressive effect of replication protein A (RPA). Functionally cooperates with RAD51AP1 in promoting of D-loop formation by RAD51. Serves as the molecular scaffold in the formation of the BRCA1-PALB2-BRCA2 complex which is essential for homologous recombinat [...]

Defa29
Alpha-defensin-related sequence 1; Apparent precursor of a secreted, cationic, proline- and cysteine-rich peptide that contains Cys-Pro-Xaa repeats. Unlike cryptdin, the proposed mature peptide region lacks the structural motif characteristic of defensins. It may have microbicidal activities; Belongs to the alpha-defensin family.
   
  
 0.451
Defb1
Beta-defensin 1; Has bactericidal activity. May act as a ligand for C-C chemokine receptor CCR6. Positively regulates the sperm motility and bactericidal activity in a CCR6-dependent manner. Binds to CCR6 and triggers Ca2+ mobilization in the sperm which is important for its motility; Belongs to the beta-defensin family.
   
  
 0.438
Defb2
Beta-defensin 2; Has bactericidal activity; Belongs to the beta-defensin family.
