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

Nek4Serine/threonine-protein kinase Nek4; Required for normal entry into proliferative arrest after a limited number of cell divisions, also called replicative senescence. Required for normal cell cycle arrest in response to double-stranded DNA damage (By similarity). Protein kinase that seems to act exclusively upon threonine residues. (792 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Rpgrip1l
Protein fantom; Negatively regulates signaling through the G-protein coupled thromboxane A2 receptor (TBXA2R) (By similarity). May be involved in mechanisms like programmed cell death, craniofacial development, patterning of the limbs, and formation of the left-right axis. 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). Involved in establishment of planar cell polarity such as in cochlear sensory epithelium and is proposed to implicate stabilization of dis [...]

Rpgrip1
X-linked retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator-interacting protein 1; May function as scaffolding protein. Required for normal location of RPGR at the connecting cilium of photoreceptor cells. Required for normal disk morphogenesis and disk organization in the outer segment of photoreceptor cells and for survival of photoreceptor cells.
    
 
 0.670
Glt8d1
Glycosyltransferase 8 domain-containing protein 1; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 8 family.
 
 
  
 0.608
Mtmr3
Myotubularin-related protein 3; Phosphatase that acts on lipids with a phosphoinositol headgroup. Has phosphatase activity towards phosphatidylinositol 3- phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate. May also dephosphorylate proteins phosphorylated on Ser, Thr, and Tyr residues (By similarity); Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Non- receptor class myotubularin subfamily.

Spag17
Sperm-associated antigen 17; Component of the central pair apparatus of ciliary axonemes. Plays a critical role in the function and structure of motile cilia. May play a role in endochondral bone formation, most likely because of a function in primary cilia of chondrocytes and osteoblasts.
    
 
 0.556
Spata7
Spermatogenesis-associated protein 7 homolog; Involved in the maintenance of both rod and cone photoreceptor cells. Required for photoreceptor-specific localization of proximal connecting cilium (CC) proteins RPGR, AHI1, NPHP1, NPHP4, and RPGRIP1 at the distal CC, a photoreceptor-specific extension of the primary cilium transition zone. Maintenance of protein localization at the photoreceptor-specific distal CC is essential for normal microtubule stability and to prevent photoreceptor degeneration.
   
 
 0.539
Cep162
Centrosomal protein of 162 kDa; Required to promote assembly of the transition zone in primary cilia. Acts by specifically recognizing and binding the axonemal microtubule. Localizes to the distal ends of centrioles before ciliogenesis and directly binds to axonemal microtubule, thereby promoting and restricting transition zone formation specifically at the cilia base. Required to mediate CEP290 association with microtubules (By similarity).
   
 
 0.538
Sdccag8
Serologically defined colon cancer antigen 8 homolog; Plays a role in the establishment of cell polarity and epithelial lumen formation. Plays also an essential role in ciliogenesis and subsequent Hedgehog signaling pathway that requires the presence of intact primary cilia for pathway activation. Mechanistically, interacts with and mediates RABEP2 centrosomal localization which is critical for ciliogenesis.

Gm15262
Predicted gene 15262.

Spink2
Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 2; As a strong inhibitor of acrosin, it is required for normal spermiogenesis. It probably hinders premature activation of proacrosin and other proteases, thus preventing the cascade of events leading to spermiogenesis defects. May be involved in the regulation of serine protease-dependent germ cell apoptosis. It also inhibits trypsin.
