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

BokBcl-2-related ovarian killer protein; Apoptosis regulator that functions through different apoptotic signaling pathways. Plays a roles as pro-apoptotic protein that positively regulates intrinsic apoptotic process in a BAX- and BAK1-dependent manner or in a BAX- and BAK1-independent manner (By similarity). In response to endoplasmic reticulum stress promotes mitochondrial apoptosis through downstream BAX/BAK1 activation and positive regulation of PERK-mediated unfolded protein response (By similarity). Activates apoptosis independently of heterodimerization with survival-promoting BCL2 [...] (213 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Bcl2l11
Bcl-2-like protein 11; Induces apoptosis and anoikis.
    
 
 0.800
Bik
Bcl2-interacting killer, isoform CRA_a.
    
 
 0.738
Pmaip1
Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate-induced protein 1; Promotes activation of caspases and apoptosis. Promotes mitochondrial membrane changes and efflux of apoptogenic proteins from the mitochondria. Contributes to p53/TP53-dependent apoptosis after radiation exposure. Promotes proteasomal degradation of MCL1. Competes with BAK1 and with BIM/BCL2L11 for binding to MCL1; can displace BAK1 and BIM/BCL2L11 from their binding sites (By similarity). Belongs to the PMAIP1 family.
    
 
 0.737
Bid
BH3-interacting domain death agonist p11; Induces caspases and apoptosis. Counters the protective effect of Bcl-2. The major proteolytic product p15 BID allows the release of cytochrome c (By similarity).
   
 
 0.731
Bad
Bcl2-associated agonist of cell death; Promotes cell death. Successfully competes for the binding to Bcl-X(L), Bcl-2 and Bcl-W, thereby affecting the level of heterodimerization of these proteins with BAX. Can reverse the death repressor activity of Bcl-X(L), but not that of Bcl-2 (By similarity). Appears to act as a link between growth factor receptor signaling and the apoptotic pathways.
   
 
 0.684
Apaf1
Apoptotic protease-activating factor 1; Regulates programmed cell death; necessary for normal brain development. Participates with pro-caspase-9 (Apaf-3) in the cytochrome c-dependent activation of caspase-3, leading to apoptosis. This activation requires ATP (By similarity).
    
 
 0.640
Bmf
Bcl-2-modifying factor; May play a role in apoptosis; Belongs to the Bcl-2 family.
    
 
 0.592
Bcl2l1
Bcl-2-like protein 1; Potent inhibitor of cell death. Inhibits activation of caspases. Appears to regulate cell death by blocking the voltage- dependent anion channel (VDAC) by binding to it and preventing the release of the caspase activator, CYC1, from the mitochondrial membrane. Also acts as a regulator of G2 checkpoint and progression to cytokinesis during mitosis. Isoform Bcl-X(S) promotes apoptosis.
      
0.559
Bcl2l10
Bcl-2-like protein 10; Promotes cell survival. Suppresses apoptosis (By similarity). Belongs to the Bcl-2 family.
      
 0.546
Bnip3
BCL2/adenovirus E1B 19 kDa-interacting protein 3.
   
 
 0.545
