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.

Mt1Metallothionein-1; Metallothioneins have a high content of cysteine residues that bind various heavy metals; these proteins are transcriptionally regulated by both heavy metals and glucocorticoids; Belongs to the metallothionein superfamily. Type 1 family. (61 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Mt2
Metallothionein-2; Metallothioneins have a high content of cysteine residues that bind various heavy metals; these proteins are transcriptionally regulated by both heavy metals and glucocorticoids; Belongs to the metallothionein superfamily. Type 1 family.
  
0.992
Mtf1
Metal regulatory transcription factor 1; Activates the metallothionein I promoter. Binds to the metal responsive element (MRE).
   
 
 0.898
Mt3
Metallothionein-3; Binds heavy metals. Contains three zinc and three copper atoms per polypeptide chain and only a negligible amount of cadmium. Inhibits survival and neurite formation of cortical neurons in vitro (By similarity); Belongs to the metallothionein superfamily. Type 1 family.
    
 0.817
Slc30a1
Zinc transporter 1; May be involved in zinc transport out of the cell. Lethality of knockout early in gestation suggests a role of the protein in fetal zinc acquisition and retention; Belongs to the cation diffusion facilitator (CDF) transporter (TC 2.A.4) family. SLC30A subfamily.
   
  
 0.684
Atox1
Copper transport protein ATOX1; Binds and deliver cytosolic copper to the copper ATPase proteins. May be important in cellular antioxidant defense (By similarity); Belongs to the ATX1 family.
   
  
 0.648
Mt4
Metallothionein-4; Seems to bind zinc and copper. Could play a special role in regulating zinc metabolism during the differentiation of stratified epithelia; Belongs to the metallothionein superfamily. Type 1 family.
  
0.610
Gpx1
Glutathione peroxidase 1; Protects the hemoglobin in erythrocytes from oxidative breakdown.
   
  
 0.593
Lox
Protein-lysine 6-oxidase, short form; Responsible for the post-translational oxidative deamination of peptidyl lysine residues in precursors to fibrous collagen and elastin. Regulator of Ras expression. May play a role in tumor suppression. Plays a role in the aortic wall architecture.
   
  
 0.553
Snca
Alpha-synuclein; Neuronal protein that plays several roles in synaptic activity such as regulation of synaptic vesicle trafficking and subsequent neurotransmitter release. Participates as a monomer in synaptic vesicle exocytosis by enhancing vesicle priming, fusion and dilation of exocytotic fusion pores. Mechanistically, acts by increasing local Ca(2+) release from microdomains which is essential for the enhancement of ATP-induced exocytosis. Acts also as a molecular chaperone in its multimeric membrane-bound state, assisting in the folding of synaptic fusion components called SNAREs [...]
   
 
 0.551
Ccs
Copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase; Delivers copper to copper zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1).
