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

Slc25a28Mitoferrin-2; Mitochondrial iron transporter that mediates iron uptake. Probably required for heme synthesis of hemoproteins and Fe-S cluster assembly in non-erythroid cells. The iron delivered into the mitochondria, presumably as Fe(2+), is then probably delivered to ferrochelatase to catalyze Fe(2+) incorporation into protoprophyrin IX to make heme (Probable); Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier (TC 2.A.29) family. (364 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Nars2
Probable asparagine--tRNA ligase, mitochondrial; Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.

Abcb10
ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 10, mitochondrial; May mediate critical mitochondrial transport functions related to heme biosynthesis; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. ABCB family. Mitochondrial peptide exporter (TC 3.A.1.212) subfamily.

Fxn
Frataxin intermediate form; Promotes the biosynthesis of heme and assembly and repair of iron-sulfur clusters by delivering Fe(2+) to proteins involved in these pathways. May play a role in the protection against iron-catalyzed oxidative stress through its ability to catalyze the oxidation of Fe(2+) to Fe(3+); the oligomeric form but not the monomeric form has in vitro ferroxidase activity. May be able to store large amounts of iron in the form of a ferrihydrite mineral by oligomerization. Modulates the RNA-binding activity of ACO1 (By similarity); Belongs to the frataxin family.

Fech
Ferrochelatase, mitochondrial; Catalyzes the ferrous insertion into protoporphyrin IX.
   
  
 0.828
Abcb7
ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 7, mitochondrial; Could be involved in the transport of heme from the mitochondria to the cytosol. Plays a central role in the maturation of cytosolic iron-sulfur (Fe/S) cluster-containing proteins.
   
 
 0.754
Ftmt
Ferritin, mitochondrial; Stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form. Important for iron homeostasis. Has ferroxidase activity. Iron is taken up in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation (By similarity); Belongs to the ferritin family.

Mettl1
tRNA (guanine-N(7)-)-methyltransferase; Methyltransferase that mediates the formation of N(7)- methylguanine in a subset of RNA species, such as tRNAs, mRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs). Catalyzes the formation of N(7)- methylguanine at position 46 (m7G46) in tRNA. Also acts as a methyltransferase for a subset of internal N(7)-methylguanine in mRNAs. Internal N(7)-methylguanine methylation of mRNAs regulates translation. Also methylates a specific subset of miRNAs, such as let-7. N(7)-methylguanine methylation of let- 7 miRNA promotes let-7 miRNA processing by disrupting an inhibitory secon [...]

Slc11a2
Natural resistance-associated macrophage protein 2; May serve to import iron into the mitochondria (By similarity). Important in metal transport, in particular iron. Involved in apical iron uptake into duodenal enterocytes. Involved in iron transport from acidified endosomes into the cytoplasm of erythroid precursor cells. May play an important role in hepatic iron accumulation and tissue iron distribution.

Nfs1
Cysteine desulfurase, mitochondrial; Catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur from cysteine to produce alanine. It supplies the inorganic sulfur for iron-sulfur (Fe- S) clusters. May be involved in the biosynthesis of molybdenum cofactor (By similarity); Belongs to the class-V pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. NifS/IscS subfamily.

Abcb8
Mitochondrial potassium channel ATP-binding subunit; ATP-binding subunit of the mitochondrial potassium channel located in the mitochondrial inner membrane (By similarity). Together with CCDC51/MITOK, forms a protein complex localized in the mitochondria that mediates ATP-dependent potassium currents across the inner membrane (that is, mitoK(ATP) channel) (By similarity). Plays a role in mitochondrial iron transport. Required for maintenance of normal cardiac function, possibly by influencing mitochondrial iron export and regulating the maturation of cytosolic iron sulfur cluster-conta [...]
