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

Score
ElaneNeutrophil elastase; Medullasin modifies the functions of natural killer cells, monocytes and granulocytes. Inhibits C5a-dependent neutrophil enzyme release and chemotaxis (By similarity). Capable of killing E.coli; probably digests outer membrane protein A (ompA) in E.coli ; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Elastase subfamily. (265 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Mpo
Myeloperoxidase heavy chain; Part of the host defense system of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. It is responsible for microbicidal activity against a wide range of organisms. In the stimulated PMN, MPO catalyzes the production of hypohalous acids, primarily hypochlorous acid in physiologic situations, and other toxic intermediates that greatly enhance PMN microbicidal activity; Belongs to the peroxidase family. XPO subfamily.

Ctsg
Cathepsin G; This vimentin-specific protease may regulate the reorganization of vimentin filaments, occurring during cell differentiation, movement and mitosis.
  
0.997
Ltf
Lactotransferrin; Transferrins are iron binding transport proteins which can bind two Fe(3+) ions in association with the binding of an anion, usually bicarbonate. The lactotransferrin transferrin-like domain 1 functions as a serine protease of the peptidase S60 family that cuts arginine rich regions. This function contributes to the antimicrobial activity. Shows a preferential cleavage at -Arg-Ser-Arg-Arg-|- and -Arg-Arg-Ser-Arg-|-, and of Z-Phe-Arg-|-aminomethylcoumarin sites.
   
 
 0.992
Prtn3
Myeloblastin; Serine protease that degrades elastin, fibronectin, laminin, vitronectin, and collagen types I, III, and IV (in vitro). By cleaving and activating receptor F2RL1/PAR-2, enhances endothelial cell barrier function and thus vascular integrity during neutrophil transendothelial migration. May play a role in neutrophil transendothelial migration, probably when associated with CD177; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Elastase subfamily.
  
 
0.986
Serpina1a
Alpha-1-antitrypsin 1-1; Inhibitor of serine proteases. Its primary target is elastase, but it also has a moderate affinity for plasmin and thrombin. Belongs to the serpin family.
   
 
 0.980
Serpina1e
Alpha-1-antitrypsin 1-5; Does not inhibit elastase or chymotrypsin. No target protease has been identified to date; Belongs to the serpin family.
    
 
 0.973
Serpina1b
Alpha-1-antitrypsin 1-2; Inhibitor of serine proteases. Its primary target is elastase, but it also has a moderate affinity for plasmin and thrombin. Belongs to the serpin family.
   
 
 0.973
Serpina1c
Alpha-1-antitrypsin 1-3; Inhibitor of serine proteases. Can inhibit trypsin and chymotrypsin; relatively ineffective against elastase. Belongs to the serpin family.
   
 
 0.971
Serpina1d
Alpha-1-antitrypsin 1-4; Inhibitor of serine proteases. Can inhibit trypsin and chymotrypsin; relatively ineffective against elastase. Belongs to the serpin family.
    
 
 0.970
Slpi
Antileukoproteinase; Acid-stable proteinase inhibitor with strong affinities for trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase, and cathepsin G. Modulates the innate immune response after bacterial infection. Contributes to regulate the inflammatory and immune responses to the intracellular parasite L.major. Down-regulates responses to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Plays a role in regulating the activation of NF-kappa-B and inflammatory responses. Has antimicrobial activity against mycobacteria, but not against salmonella. Contributes to normal resistance against infection by M.tuberculosis. R [...]
