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

Cpa3Mast cell carboxypeptidase A. (411 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Cma1
Chymase; Major secreted protease of mast cells with suspected roles in vasoactive peptide generation, extracellular matrix degradation, and regulation of gland secretion; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Granzyme subfamily.
   
 
 0.977
Mcpt1l1
Mast cell protease 1; Major secreted protease of mast cells with suspected roles in vasoactive peptide generation, extracellular matrix degradation, and regulation of gland secretion. May participate in generating perivascular beta-protein which ultimately aggregates into amyloid-beta deposits.
   
 
 0.944
Cpa1
Carboxypeptidase A1; Carboxypeptidase that catalyzes the release of a C-terminal amino acid, but has little or no action with -Asp, -Glu, -Arg, -Lys or -Pro.
  
 
0.921
Cpa2
Carboxypeptidase A2.
  
  
0.918
Tpsb2
Tryptase beta-2; Tryptase is the major neutral protease present in mast cells and is secreted upon the coupled activation-degranulation response of this cell type. Plays a role in innate immunity; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Tryptase subfamily.
   
 
 0.895
Ms4a2
High affinity immunoglobulin epsilon receptor subunit beta; High affinity receptor that binds to the Fc region of immunoglobulins epsilon. Aggregation of FCER1 by multivalent antigens is required for the full mast cell response, including the release of preformed mediators (such as histamine) by degranulation and de novo production of lipid mediators and cytokines. Also mediates the secretion of important lymphokines. Binding of allergen to receptor- bound IgE leads to cell activation and the release of mediators responsible for the manifestations of allergy; Belongs to the MS4A family.
   
  
 0.848
Fcer1a
High affinity immunoglobulin epsilon receptor subunit alpha; Binds to the Fc region of immunoglobulins epsilon. High affinity receptor. Responsible for initiating the allergic response. Binding of allergen to receptor-bound IgE leads to cell activation and the release of mediators (such as histamine) responsible for the manifestations of allergy. The same receptor also induces the secretion of important lymphokines.
   
  
 0.835
Tpsab1
Tryptase; Tryptase is the major neutral protease present in mast cells and is secreted upon the coupled activation-degranulation response of this cell type. May play a role in innate immunity (By similarity). Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Tryptase subfamily.
   
 
 0.834
Ctsg
Cathepsin G.
   
 
 0.777
Mcpt1
Mast cell protease 2; This enzyme, isolated from small intestine, specifically inactivates the apo forms of a certain group of intracellular pyridoxal phosphate-requiring enzymes. It has chymotrypsin-like specificity towards small substrates.
   
 
 0.776
