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

Steap4Metalloreductase STEAP4; Integral membrane protein that functions as NADPH-dependent ferric-chelate reductase, using NADPH from one side of the membrane to reduce a Fe(3+) chelate that is bound on the other side of the membrane. Mediates sequential transmembrane electron transfer from NADPH to FAD and onto heme, and finally to the Fe(3+) chelate. Can also reduce Cu(2+) to Cu(1+). Plays a role in systemic metabolic homeostasis, integrating inflammatory and metabolic responses (By similarity). Associated with obesity and insulin-resistance (By similarity). Involved in inflammatory arthri [...] (470 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Cyb561
Cytochrome b-561 (Predicted), isoform CRA_a.
      
 0.529
Emp1
Epithelial membrane protein 1; Belongs to the PMP-22/EMP/MP20 family.
   
  
 0.474
Steap1
Six transmembrane epithelial antigen of the prostate 1 (Predicted).

Cybrd1
Cytochrome b reductase 1; Ferric-chelate reductase that reduces Fe(3+) to Fe(2+). Present at the brush border of duodenal enterocytes where it probably reduces dietary Fe(3+) thereby facilitating its transport into the mucosal cells. Uses ascorbate as electron donor. May be involved in extracellular ascorbate recycling in erythrocyte membranes. May also act as a ferrireductase in airway epithelial cells (By similarity).
   
  
 0.441
Gamt
Guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase; Converts guanidinoacetate to creatine, using S- adenosylmethionine as the methyl donor. Important in nervous system development; Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. RMT2 methyltransferase family.
      
 0.439
Fam160a1
Family with sequence similarity 160, member A1.
   
 
 0.432
Serping1
Plasma protease C1 inhibitor; Activation of the C1 complex is under control of the C1- inhibitor. It forms a proteolytically inactive stoichiometric complex with the C1r or C1s proteases. May play a potentially crucial role in regulating important physiological pathways including complement activation, blood coagulation, fibrinolysis and the generation of kinins. Very efficient inhibitor of FXIIa. Inhibits chymotrypsin and kallikrein (By similarity).
