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

Foxa3Hepatocyte nuclear factor 3-gamma; Transcription factor that is thought to act as a 'pioneer' factor opening the compacted chromatin for other proteins through interactions with nucleosomal core histones and thereby replacing linker histones at target enhancer and/or promoter sites (By similarity). Originally described as a transcription activator for a number of liver genes such as AFP, albumin, tyrosine aminotransferase, PEPCK, etc. Interacts with the cis-acting regulatory regions of these genes. Involved in glucose homeostasis. Involved in regulation of neuronal-specific transcripti [...] (354 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Hnf4a
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-alpha; Transcriptional regulator which controls the expression of hepatic genes during the transition of endodermal cells to hepatic progenitor cells, facilitating the recruitment of RNA pol II to the promoters of target genes (By similarity). Activates the transcription of CYP2C38 (By similarity). Represses the CLOCK-ARNTL/BMAL1 transcriptional activity and is essential for circadian rhythm maintenance and period regulation in the liver and colon cells (By similarity); Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR2 subfamily.

Hnf1a
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-alpha; Transcriptional activator that regulates the tissue specific expression of multiple genes, especially in pancreatic islet cells and in liver (By similarity). Binds to the inverted palindrome 5'- GTTAATNATTAAC-3' (By similarity). Activates the transcription of CYP1A2, CYP2E1 and CYP3A11 (By similarity). Belongs to the HNF1 homeobox family.
   
  
 0.701
Onecut1
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 6; Transcriptional activator. Binds the consensus sequence 5'- DHWATTGAYTWWD-3' on a variety of gene promoters such as those of HNF3B and TTR. Important for liver genes transcription. The affinity of HNF- 6-alpha and HNF-6-beta for DNA differs depending on the target sequence.

Spdef
SAM pointed domain-containing ets transcription factor.
   
  
 0.681
Hhex
Hematopoietically-expressed homeobox.
   
  
 0.677
Hnf1b
Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-beta; Transcription factor, probably binds to the inverted palindrome 5'-GTTAATNATTAAC-3'.
   
  
 0.647
Gata4
Transcription factor GATA-4; Transcriptional activator that binds to the consensus sequence 5'-AGATAG-3' and plays a key role in cardiac development (By similarity). In cooperation with TBX5, it binds to cardiac super- enhancers and promotes cardiomyocyte gene expression, while it downregulates endocardial and endothelial gene expression (By similarity). Acts as a transcriptional activator of ANF in cooperation with NKX2-5 (By similarity). Promotes cardiac myocyte enlargement (By similarity). Required during testicular development (By similarity). Involved in bone morphogenetic protein [...]
   
 
 0.627
Gata6
Transcription factor GATA-6; Transcriptional activator that regulates SEMA3C and PLXNA2. May regulate genes that protect epithelial cells from bacterial infection. Involved in gene regulation specifically in the gastric epithelium. Involved in bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-mediated cardiac-specific gene expression. Binds to BMP response element (BMPRE) DNA sequences within cardiac activating regions.
   
 
 0.579
Ttr
Transthyretin; Thyroid hormone-binding protein. Probably transports thyroxine from the bloodstream to the brain. Belongs to the transthyretin family.
   
  
 0.523
Cebpa
CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha; Transcription factor that coordinates proliferation arrest and the differentiation of myeloid progenitors, adipocytes, hepatocytes, and cells of the lung and the placenta. Binds directly to the consensus DNA sequence 5'-T[TG]NNGNAA[TG]-3' acting as an activator on distinct target genes. During early embryogenesis, plays essential and redundant functions with CEBPB (By similarity). Essential for the transition from common myeloid progenitors (CMP) to granulocyte/monocyte progenitors (GMP). Critical for the proper development of the liver and the lun [...]
