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

Defa42Defensin, alpha, 42. (116 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Mptx1
Mucosal pentraxin; Belongs to the pentraxin family.
      
 0.661
Ceacam2
Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 2; Controls energy balance and peripheral insulin action. Involved in the regulation of feeding behavior particularly in the ventromedial nucleus of hypothalamus (VMH) regulation of food intake. Has a role in the regulation of metabolic rate and insulin sensitivity or resistance via effects on brown adipogenesis, sympathetic nervous outflow to brown adipose tissue, spontaneous activity and energy expenditure in skeletal muscle. In case of murine coronavirus (MHV) infection, does probably not serve as functional receptor for the vi [...]

Bcl2l15
Bcl-2-like protein 15.
   
  
 0.607
Nat8l
N-acetylaspartate synthetase; Plays a role in the regulation of lipogenesis by producing N- acetylaspartate acid (NAA), a brain-specific metabolite. NAA occurs in high concentration in brain and its hydrolysis plays a significant part in the maintenance of intact white matter. Promotes dopamine uptake by regulating TNF-alpha expression. Attenuates methamphetamine-induced inhibition of dopamine uptake. Belongs to the camello family.
      
 0.551
Rims2
Regulating synaptic membrane exocytosis protein 2; Rab effector involved in exocytosis. May act as scaffold protein. Plays a role in dendrite formation by melanocytes (By similarity).
