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

Flg2Filaggrin-2; Essential for normal cell-cell adhesion in the cornified cell layers. Important for proper integrity and mechanical strength of the stratum corneum of the epidermis; Belongs to the S100-fused protein family. (2336 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Lor
Loricrin; Major keratinocyte cell envelope protein.

Casp14
Caspase-14 subunit p20, intermediate form; Non-apoptotic caspase which is involved in epidermal differentiation. Seems to play a role in keratinocyte differentiation and is required for cornification. Regulates maturation of the epidermis by proteolytically processing filaggrin. In vitro is equally active on the synthetic caspase substrates WEHD-ACF and IETD-AFC. Involved in processing of prosaposin in the epidermis. May be involved in retinal pigment epithelium cell barrier function (By similarity). Belongs to the peptidase C14A family.
   
 
 0.610
Klk9
Kallikrein-related-peptidase 9; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.
   
 
 0.605
Cdsn
Corneodesmosin; Important for the epidermal barrier integrity.
   
  
 0.560
Dsg1a
Desmoglein-1-alpha; Component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell adhesion.
   
 
 0.554
Dsg1b
Desmoglein-1-beta; Component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell adhesion.
   
 
 0.550
Dsg1c
Desmoglein-1-gamma; Component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell adhesion.
    
 
 0.548
Dsc1
Desmocollin-1; Component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell adhesion. May contribute to epidermal cell positioning (stratification) by mediating differential adhesiveness between cells that express different isoforms. Linked to the keratinization of epithelial tissues.

Tgm3
Protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase E 27 kDa non-catalytic chain; Catalyzes the calcium-dependent formation of isopeptide cross-links between glutamine and lysine residues in various proteins, as well as the conjugation of polyamines to proteins. Involved in the formation of the cornified envelope (CE), a specialized component consisting of covalent cross-links of proteins beneath the plasma membrane of terminally differentiated keratinocytes. Catalyzes small proline-rich proteins (SPRR1 and SPRR2) and LOR cross-linking to form small interchain oligomers, which are further cros [...]
    
 
 0.503
Sprr4
Small proline-rich protein 4; Cross-linked envelope protein of keratinocytes. Involved in UV-induced cornification (By similarity).
