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.

OpalinOpalin; Central nervous system-specific myelin protein that increase myelin genes expression during oligodendrocyte differentiation. Promotes oligodendrocyte terminal differentiation. (143 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Mag
Myelin-associated glycoprotein; Adhesion molecule that mediates interactions between myelinating cells and neurons by binding to neuronal sialic acid- containing gangliosides and to the glycoproteins RTN4R and RTN4RL2. Not required for initial myelination, but seems to play a role in the maintenance of normal axon myelination. Protects motoneurons against apoptosis, also after injury; protection against apoptosis is probably mediated via interaction with neuronal RTN4R and RTN4RL2. Required to prevent degeneration of myelinated axons in adults; this probably depends on binding to gangl [...]

Ermn
Ermin; Plays a role in cytoskeletal rearrangements during the late wrapping and/or compaction phases of myelinogenesis as well as in maintenance and stability of myelin sheath in the adult. May play an important role in late-stage oligodendroglia maturation, myelin/Ranvier node formation during CNS development, and in the maintenance and plasticity of related structures in the mature CNS (By similarity).
   
  
 0.898
Htr5a
5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 5A; This is one of the several different receptors for 5- hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone, and a mitogen. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins.
   
  
 0.895
Htr5b
5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 5B; This is one of the several different receptors for 5- hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone, and a mitogen. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins. Probably involved in anxiety and depression.
   
  
 0.818
Mobp
Myelin-associated oligodendrocyte basic protein; May play a role in compacting or stabilizing the myelin sheath possibly by binding the negatively charged acidic phospholipids of the cytoplasmic membrane.
   
  
 0.814
Cldn11
Claudin-11; Plays a major role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium-independent cell-adhesion activity; Belongs to the claudin family.
   
  
 0.801
Mog
Myelin-oligodendrocyte glycoprotein; Minor component of the myelin sheath. May be involved in completion and/or maintenance of the myelin sheath and in cell-cell communication. Mediates homophilic cell-cell adhesion. Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. BTN/MOG family.
   
  
 0.769
Pllp
Plasmolipin; Appears to be involved in myelination. Could also participate in ion transport events as addition of plasmolipin to lipid bilayers induces the formation of ion channels, which are voltage-dependent and K(+)-selective (By similarity).
   
  
 0.739
Klk6
Kallikrein-related-peptidase 6; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.
   
  
 0.682
Hapln2
Hyaluronan and proteoglycan link protein 2; Mediates a firm binding of versican V2 to hyaluronic acid. May play a pivotal role in the formation of the hyaluronan-associated matrix in the central nervous system (CNS) which facilitates neuronal conduction and general structural stabilization. Binds to hyaluronic acid; Belongs to the HAPLN family.
