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

C9Complement component C9; Constituent of the membrane attack complex (MAC) that plays a key role in the innate and adaptive immune response by forming pores in the plasma membrane of target cells. C9 is the pore-forming subunit of the MAC; Belongs to the complement C6/C7/C8/C9 family. (580 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
C5
C5a anaphylatoxin; Derived from proteolytic degradation of complement C5, C5 anaphylatoxin is a mediator of local inflammatory process. Binding to the receptor C5AR1 induces a variety of responses including intracellular calcium release, contraction of smooth muscle, increased vascular permeability, and histamine release from mast cells and basophilic leukocytes. C5a is also a potent chemokine which stimulates the locomotion of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and directs their migration toward sites of inflammation.

C6
Complement component C6; Constituent of the membrane attack complex (MAC) that plays a key role in the innate and adaptive immune response by forming pores in the plasma membrane of target cells; Belongs to the complement C6/C7/C8/C9 family.
   
0.984
C8b
Complement component C8 beta chain; Constituent of the membrane attack complex (MAC) that plays a key role in the innate and adaptive immune response by forming pores in the plasma membrane of target cells.
   
0.975
C7
Complement C7.
   
0.967
Ugt2b1
UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B1; UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds; Belongs to the UDP-glycosyltransferase family.
   
  
 0.966
C8a
Complement component 8, alpha polypeptide (Predicted).
   
0.964
C8g
Complement component 8, gamma polypeptide (Predicted), isoform CRA_a.
   
 0.940
Cd59
CD59 glycoprotein; Potent inhibitor of the complement membrane attack complex (MAC) action. Acts at or after the C5b-8 stage of MAC assembly.
   
 0.896
Vtn
Vitronectin.
   
 0.884
Mug2
Murinoglobulin-2.
