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

Slco2a1Solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 2A1; May mediate the release of newly synthesized prostaglandins from cells, the transepithelial transport of prostaglandins, and the clearance of prostaglandins from the circulation. Transports PGD2, as well as PGE1, PGE2 and PGF2A; Belongs to the organo anion transporter (TC 2.A.60) family. (644 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Hpgd
15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase [NAD(+)]; Prostaglandin inactivation. Contributes to the regulation of events that are under the control of prostaglandin levels. Catalyzes the NAD-dependent dehydrogenation of lipoxin A4 to form 15-oxo-lipoxin A4 (By similarity); Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
   
  
 0.740
Ptgfr
Prostaglandin F2-alpha receptor; Receptor for prostaglandin F2-alpha (PGF2-alpha). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Initiates luteolysis in the corpus luteum.
   
  
 0.618
Ptger4
Prostaglandin E2 receptor EP4 subtype; Receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G(s) proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase. Has a relaxing effect on smooth muscle. May play an important role in regulating renal hemodynamics, intestinal epithelial transport, adrenal aldosterone secretion, and uterine function; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
      
 0.614
Ptger2
Prostaglandin E2 receptor EP2 subtype; Receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G(s) proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase. The subsequent raise in intracellular cAMP is responsible for the relaxing effect of this receptor on smooth muscle (By similarity). Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
   
  
 0.598
Slc22a22
Solute carrier family 22 (organic cation transporter), member 22.
   
  
 0.597
Ptges
Inducible prostaglandin E synthase.
      
 0.571
Aoc3
Membrane primary amine oxidase; Cell adhesion protein that participates in lymphocyte recirculation by mediating the binding of lymphocytes to peripheral lymph node vascular endothelial cells in an L-selectin-independent fashion. Has a monoamine oxidase activity. May play a role in adipogenesis (By similarity).
   
  
 0.554
Col8a2
Collagen type VIII alpha 2 chain.
      
 0.551
Ptger3
Prostaglandin E2 receptor EP3 subtype; Receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). Required for normal development of fever in response to pyrinogens, including IL1B, prostaglandin E2 and bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Required for normal potentiation of platelet aggregation by prostaglandin E2, and thus plays a role in the regulation of blood coagulation. Required for increased HCO3(-) secretion in the duodenum in response to mucosal acidification, and thereby contributes to the protection of the mucosa against acid- induced ulceration. Not required for normal kidney function, normal u [...]
   
  
 0.544
Slc22a8
Solute carrier family 22 member 8; Plays an important role in the excretion/detoxification of endogenous and exogenous organic anions, especially from the brain and kidney. Functions as one of the detoxification systems on the choroid plexus (CP) by removing substrates from the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Functions as an organic anion/dicarboxylate exchanger that couples organic anion uptake indirectly to the sodium gradient. Mediates the uptake from brain of organic anions, such as p-aminohippurate (PAH), ochratoxin A, and estrone sulfate (ES) and a cationic compound, cimetidine in a s [...]
