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

Adgrf5Adhesion G protein-coupled receptor F5; Receptor that plays a critical role in lung surfactant homeostasis. May play a role in controlling adipocyte function. (1384 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Sftpc
Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein C; Pulmonary surfactant associated proteins promote alveolar stability by lowering the surface tension at the air-liquid interface in the peripheral air spaces.
   
 
 0.861
Cdh5
Cadherin 5; Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins.
   
  
 0.858
Ptprb
Protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type, B.
   
 
 0.836
Sftpb
Pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B; Pulmonary surfactant-associated proteins promote alveolar stability by lowering the surface tension at the air-liquid interface in the peripheral air spaces. SP-B increases the collapse pressure of palmitic acid to nearly 70 millinewtons per meter.
   
 
 0.805
Vwf
Von Willebrand factor; Important in the maintenance of hemostasis, it promotes adhesion of platelets to the sites of vascular injury by forming a molecular bridge between sub-endothelial collagen matrix and platelet- surface receptor complex GPIb-IX-V. Also acts as a chaperone for coagulation factor VIII, delivering it to the site of injury, stabilizing its heterodimeric structure and protecting it from premature clearance from plasma (By similarity).
   
 
 0.769
Ramp2
Receptor activity-modifying protein 2; Transports the calcitonin gene-related peptide type 1 receptor (CALCRL) to the plasma membrane. Acts as a receptor for adrenomedullin (AM) together with CALCRL.
   
  
 0.702
Kdr
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2; Tyrosine-protein kinase that acts as a cell-surface receptor for VEGFA, VEGFC and VEGFD. Plays an essential role in the regulation of angiogenesis, vascular development, vascular permeability, and embryonic hematopoiesis. Promotes proliferation, survival, migration and differentiation of endothelial cells. Promotes reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Isoforms lacking a transmembrane domain may function as decoy receptors for VEGFA, VEGFC and/or VEGFD. Modulates FLT1 and FLT4 signaling by forming heterodimers. Binding of vascular grow [...]
   
  
 0.687
Mmrn2
Multimerin 2.
   
 
 0.663
Acer2
Alkaline ceramidase; Hydrolyzes the sphingolipid ceramide into sphingosine and free fatty acid.
   
    0.660
Sox18
SRY (Sex determining region Y)-box 18.
   
    0.649
