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

Aebp1Adipocyte enhancer-binding protein 1; [Isoform 1]: As a positive regulator of collagen fibrillogenesis, it is probably involved in the organization and remodeling of the extracellular matrix; Belongs to the peptidase M14 family. (1128 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Pcolce
Procollagen C-endopeptidase enhancer 1; Binds to the C-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen and enhances procollagen C-proteinase activity.
   
  
 0.731
Fmod
Fibromodulin; Affects the rate of fibrils formation. May have a primary role in collagen fibrillogenesis.
   
  
 0.725
Mxra8
Matrix remodeling-associated protein 8; Transmembrane protein which can modulate activity of various signaling pathways, probably via binding to integrin ITGAV:ITGB3. Mediates heterophilic cell-cell interactions in vitro. Inhibits osteoclastogenesis downstream of TNFSF11/RANKL and CSF1, where it may function by attenuating signaling via integrin ITGB3 and MAP kinase p38. Plays a role in cartilage formation where it promotes proliferation and maturation of growth plate chondrocytes. Stimulates formation of primary cilia in chondrocytes. Enhances expression of genes involved in the hedge [...]

Col12a1
Collagen alpha-1(XII) chain; Type XII collagen interacts with type I collagen-containing fibrils, the COL1 domain could be associated with the surface of the fibrils, and the COL2 and NC3 domains may be localized in the perifibrillar matrix; Belongs to the fibril-associated collagens with interrupted helices (FACIT) family.
   
  
 0.597
Col1a2
Collagen alpha-2(I) chain; Type I collagen is a member of group I collagen (fibrillar forming collagen); Belongs to the fibrillar collagen family.
   
  
 0.593
Cd68
Macrosialin; Could play a role in phagocytic activities of tissue macrophages, both in intracellular lysosomal metabolism and extracellular cell-cell and cell-pathogen interactions. Binds to tissue- and organ-specific lectins or selectins, allowing homing of macrophage subsets to particular sites. Rapid recirculation of CD68 from endosomes and lysosomes to the plasma membrane may allow macrophages to crawl over selectin-bearing substrates or other cells; Belongs to the LAMP family.

Col1a1
Collagen alpha-1(I) chain; Type I collagen is a member of group I collagen (fibrillar forming collagen); Belongs to the fibrillar collagen family.

Thbs2
Thrombospondin-2; Adhesive glycoprotein that mediates cell-to-cell and cell-to- matrix interactions. Ligand for CD36 mediating antiangiogenic properties.
   
  
 0.574
Aldh3a1
Aldehyde dehydrogenase, dimeric NADP-preferring; ALDHs play a major role in the detoxification of alcohol- derived acetaldehyde (Probable). They are involved in the metabolism of corticosteroids, biogenic amines, neurotransmitters, and lipid peroxidation (Probable). Oxidizes medium and long chain aldehydes into non-toxic fatty acids. Preferentially oxidizes aromatic aldehyde substrates. Comprises about 50 percent of corneal epithelial soluble proteins. May play a role in preventing corneal damage caused by ultraviolet light.
   
  
 0.563
Chrna6
Neuronal acetylcholine receptor subunit alpha-6; After binding acetylcholine, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane.
