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

Rln3Relaxin-3 A chain; May play a role in neuropeptide signaling processes. Ligand for LGR7, relaxin-3 receptor-1 and relaxin-3 receptor-2 (By similarity); Belongs to the insulin family. (140 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Rxfp3
Relaxin-3/INSL7 receptor 1 long form.
    
 0.999
Rxfp1
Relaxin receptor 1; Receptor for relaxins. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins leading to stimulation of adenylate cyclase and an increase of cAMP. Binding of the ligand may also activate a tyrosine kinase pathway that inhibits the activity of a phosphodiesterase that degrades cAMP (By similarity); Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
     
 0.998
Rxfp2
Leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 8.
     
 0.987
Rln1
Relaxin A chain; Relaxin is an ovarian hormone that acts with estrogen to produce dilatation of the birth canal in many mammals.
   
 
 0.979
Insl3
Insulin-like 3 A chain; Seems to play a role in testicular function. May be a trophic hormone with a role in testicular descent in fetal life. Is a ligand for LGR8 receptor (By similarity).
   
 
 0.977
Insl6
Insulin-like peptide INSL6 A chain; May have a role in sperm development and fertilization.
   
  
 0.796
Nps
Neuropeptide S; May play an important anorexigenic role. Modulates arousal and anxiety as well as increases locomotor activity. Binds to its receptor NPSR1 with nanomolar affinity to increase intracellular calcium concentrations.
      
 0.731
Gpr135
G-protein coupled receptor 135; Orphan receptor. Has spontaneous activity for beta-arrestin recruitment. Shows a reciprocal regulatory interaction with the melatonin receptor MTNR1B most likely through receptor heteromerization (By similarity).
    
 
 0.724
Rlf
Rearranged L-myc fusion.
      
 0.720
Npy5r
Neuropeptide Y receptor type 5; Receptor for neuropeptide Y and peptide YY. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins that inhibit adenylate cyclase activity. Seems to be associated with food intake. Could be involved in feeding disorders.
