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.

Angptl6Angiopoietin-related protein 6; May play a role in the wound healing process. May promote epidermal proliferation, remodeling and regeneration. May promote the chemotactic activity of endothelial cells and induce neovascularization. May counteract high-fat diet-induced obesity and related insulin resistance through increased energy expenditure. (457 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Angptl8
Angiopoietin-like protein 8; Hormone that acts as a blood lipid regulator by regulating serum triglyceride levels. May be involved in the metabolic transition between fasting and refeeding: required to direct fatty acids to adipose tissue for storage in the fed state. According to a report, may act by promoting ANGPTL3 cleavage. According to another study, not required for cleavage of ANGPTL3. Belongs to the ANGPTL8 family.

Ahsg
Alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein; Probably involved in differentiation; Belongs to the fetuin family.
   
 
 0.512
Lect2
Leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin-2; Has a neutrophil chemotactic activity. Also a positive regulator of chondrocyte proliferation.
   
  
 0.512
Fgf21
Fibroblast growth factor 21; Stimulates glucose uptake in differentiated adipocytes via the induction of glucose transporter SLC2A1/GLUT1 expression (but not SLC2A4/GLUT4 expression). Activity probably requires the presence of KLB; Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family.

Nphp4
Nephrocystin-4; Involved in the organization of apical junctions; the function is proposed to implicate a NPHP1-4-8 module. Does not seem to be strictly required for ciliogenesis (By similarity). Required for building functional cilia. Involved in the organization of the subapical actin network in multiciliated epithelial cells. Seems to recruit INT to basal bodies of motile cilia which subsequently interacts with actin-modifying proteins such as DAAM1 (By similarity). In cooperation with INVS may downregulate the canonical Wnt pathway and promote the Wnt-PCP pathway by regulating expr [...]
   
   0.492
Lrrc24
Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 24.
   
 
 0.491
Selenop
Selenoprotein P; Might be responsible for some of the extracellular antioxidant defense properties of selenium or might be involved in the transport of selenium (By similarity). May supply selenium to tissues such as brain and testis.
      
 0.470
Tie1
Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor Tie-1; Transmembrane tyrosine-protein kinase that may modulate TEK/TIE2 activity and contribute to the regulation of angiogenesis.
    
 0.463
Smoc1
SPARC-related modular calcium-binding protein 1; Probable regulator of osteoblast differentiation. Plays essential roles in both eye and limb development.
   
 
 0.432
Glg1
Golgi apparatus protein 1; Binds fibroblast growth factor and E-selectin (cell-adhesion lectin on endothelial cells mediating the binding of neutrophils).
