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

AtrnAttractin; Involved in the initial immune cell clustering during inflammatory response and may regulate chemotactic activity of chemokines (By similarity). May play a role in melanocortin signaling pathways that regulate energy homeostasis and hair color. Low-affinity receptor for agouti (By similarity). Has a critical role in normal myelination in the central nervous system. (1432 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Mgrn1
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase MGRN1; E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. Mediates TSG101 monoubiquitination at multiple sites. Plays a role in the regulation of endosome-to-lysosome trafficking. Impairs MC1R- and MC4R-signaling by competing with GNAS-binding to MCRs and inhibiting agonist-induced cAMP production. Does not inhibit ADRB2-signaling. Does not promote MC1R ubiquitination. Acts also as a negative regulator of hedgehog signaling (By similarity).
   
 
 0.897
Asip
Agouti-signaling protein; Involved in the regulation of melanogenesis. The binding of ASP to MC1R precludes alpha-MSH initiated signaling and thus blocks production of cAMP, leading to a down-regulation of eumelanogenesis (brown/black pigment) and thus increasing synthesis of pheomelanin (yellow/red pigment).
    
 
 0.801
Pced1a
PC-esterase domain-containing 1A.
      
 0.787
Slx4ip
SLX4-interacting protein.
      
 0.745
Rnf157
E3 ubiquitin ligase Rnf157; E3 ubiquitin ligase that ubiquitinates APBB1 for its degradation by the proteasome and thus prevents apoptosis and promotes survival of neurons (By similarity). Has a dual role in neurons as it is also required for dendrite growth and maintenance for which its ligase activity is not critical (By similarity). May act as a scaffold molecule to regulate this process (By similarity). Acts as a downstream effector of the interconnected PI3K and MAPK signaling pathways and thus participates in the regulation of the cell cycle (By similarity).
   
 
 0.665
Slc30a5
Solute carrier family 30 (Zinc transporter), member 5 (Predicted).
   
  
 0.620
Tmem216
Transmembrane protein 216; Part of the tectonic-like complex which is required for tissue-specific ciliogenesis and may regulate ciliary membrane composition.
      
 0.617
Mc4r
Melanocortin receptor 4; Receptor specific to the heptapeptide core common to adrenocorticotropic hormone and alpha-, beta-, and gamma-MSH. Plays a central role in energy homeostasis and somatic growth. This receptor is mediated by G proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase (cAMP). Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
    
 
 0.610
Ino80d
INO80 complex subunit D.
      
 0.609
Ntn5
Netrin-5; Plays a role in neurogenesis. Prevents motor neuron cell body migration out of the neural tube.
      
 0.601
