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

GneBifunctional UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase; Regulates and initiates biosynthesis of N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc), a precursor of sialic acids. Required for normal sialylation in hematopoietic cells. Sialylation is implicated in cell adhesion, signal transduction, tumorigenicity and metastatic behavior of malignant cells. Plays an essential role in early development (By similarity); In the N-terminal section; belongs to the UDP-N- acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase family. (753 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Nans
N-acetylneuraminic acid synthase (Sialic acid synthase) (Predicted), isoform CRA_a.
   
 
 0.985
Npl
N-acetylneuraminate lyase; Catalyzes the cleavage of N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid) to form pyruvate and N-acetylmannosamine via a Schiff base intermediate. It prevents sialic acids from being recycled and returning to the cell surface. Involved in the N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) degradation pathway (By similarity).
     
 0.953
Renbp
N-acylglucosamine 2-epimerase; Catalyzes the interconversion of N-acetylglucosamine to N- acetylmannosamine. Binds to renin forming a protein complex called high molecular weight (HMW) renin and inhibits renin activity. Involved in the N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) degradation pathway.
     
 0.947
Uap1
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase 1.
     
 0.946
Amdhd2
N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate deacetylase; Hydrolyzes the N-glycolyl group from N-glycolylglucosamine 6- phosphate (GlcNGc-6-P) in the N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) degradation pathway; Belongs to the metallo-dependent hydrolases superfamily. NagA family.
  
 
 0.936
Uap1l1
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase 1-like 1.
     
 0.926
Taldo1
Transaldolase; Transaldolase is important for the balance of metabolites in the pentose-phosphate pathway.
  
 
 0.916
Gpi
Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase; In the cytoplasm, catalyzes the conversion of glucose-6- phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate, the second step in glycolysis, and the reverse reaction during gluconeogenesis. Besides it's role as a glycolytic enzyme, also acts as a secreted cytokine: acts as an angiogenic factor (AMF) that stimulates endothelial cell motility. Acts as a neurotrophic factor, neuroleukin, for spinal and sensory neurons. It is secreted by lectin-stimulated T-cells and induces immunoglobulin secretion (By similarity). Belongs to the GPI family.
  
 
 0.914
H6pd
Hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (Glucose 1-dehydrogenase) (Predicted), isoform CRA_b.
  
 
 0.882
Pgghg
Protein-glucosylgalactosylhydroxylysine glucosidase.
    
 0.840
