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

UcmaUnique cartilage matrix-associated protein C-terminal fragment; May be involved in the negative control of osteogenic differentiation of osteochondrogenic precursor cells in peripheral zones of fetal cartilage and at the cartilage-bone interface. Belongs to the UCMA family. (138 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Mgp
Matrix Gla protein; Associates with the organic matrix of bone and cartilage. Thought to act as an inhibitor of bone formation.
   
  
 0.748
Ggcx
Vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylase; Mediates the vitamin K-dependent carboxylation of glutamate residues to calcium-binding gamma-carboxyglutamate (Gla) residues with the concomitant conversion of the reduced hydroquinone form of vitamin K to vitamin K epoxide.
      
 0.740
Pros1
Vitamin K-dependent protein S; Anticoagulant plasma protein; it is a cofactor to activated protein C in the degradation of coagulation factors Va and VIIIa. It helps to prevent coagulation and stimulating fibrinolysis.
      
 0.639
Spertl
Spermatid-associated-like.
      
 0.600
Runx2
Runt-related transcription factor 2; Transcription factor involved in osteoblastic differentiation and skeletal morphogenesis. Essential for the maturation of osteoblasts and both intramembranous and endochondral ossification. CBF binds to the core site, 5'-PYGPYGGT-3', of a number of enhancers and promoters, including murine leukemia virus, polyomavirus enhancer, T-cell receptor enhancers, osteocalcin, osteopontin, bone sialoprotein, alpha 1(I) collagen, LCK, IL-3 and GM-CSF promoters. Inhibits KAT6B-dependent transcriptional activation (By similarity). In osteoblasts, supports transc [...]

Ahsg
Alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein; Probably involved in differentiation; Belongs to the fetuin family.
      
 0.576
Sp7
Transcription factor Sp7; Transcriptional activator essential for osteoblast differentiation. Binds to SP1 and EKLF consensus sequences and to other G/C-rich sequences. Belongs to the Sp1 C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.
   
 
 0.569
Bglap2
Osteocalcin-2; Constitutes 1-2% of the total bone protein. It binds strongly to apatite and calcium; Belongs to the osteocalcin/matrix Gla protein family.
   
  
 0.535
Bglap
Osteocalcin; Constitutes 1-2% of the total bone protein. It binds strongly to apatite and calcium; Belongs to the osteocalcin/matrix Gla protein family.
   
  
 0.534
Bglap3
Osteocalcin-related protein; Binds strongly to apatite and calcium. Belongs to the osteocalcin/matrix Gla protein family.
