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

Slc16a2Monocarboxylate transporter 8; Very active and specific thyroid hormone transporter. Stimulates cellular uptake of thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), reverse triiodothyronine (rT3) and diidothyronine. Does not transport Leu, Phe, Trp or Tyr. (545 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Slco1c1
Solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1C1; Mediates the Na(+)-independent high affinity transport of organic anions such as the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and rT3. Other potential substrates, such as triiodothyronine (T3), 17-beta- glucuronosyl estradiol, estrone-3-sulfate and sulfobromophthalein (BSP) are transported with much lower efficiency (By similarity). May play a significant role in regulating T4 flux into and out of the brain.

Slc16a10
Monocarboxylate transporter 10; Sodium-independent transporter that mediates the uptake of aromatic acids. Can function as a net efflux pathway for aromatic amino acids in the basosolateral epithelial cells (By similarity). Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Monocarboxylate porter (TC 2.A.1.13) family.
  
  
0.907
Slco4a1
Solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 4A1; Mediates the Na(+)-independent transport of organic anions such as the thyroid hormone T3 (triiodo-L-thyronine) and of taurocholate; Belongs to the organo anion transporter (TC 2.A.60) family.
   
 
 0.742
Slc5a5
Sodium/iodide cotransporter; Mediates iodide uptake in the thyroid gland; Belongs to the sodium:solute symporter (SSF) (TC 2.A.21) family.
      
 0.721
Thra
Thyroid hormone receptor alpha; Nuclear hormone receptor that can act as a repressor or activator of transcription. High affinity receptor for thyroid hormones, including triiodothyronine and thyroxine; Belongs to the nuclear hormone receptor family. NR1 subfamily.
    
 
 0.715
Tshr
Thyrotropin receptor; Receptor for the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) or thyrotropin. Also acts as a receptor for the heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone (GPHA2:GPHB5) or thyrostimulin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase (By similarity). Plays a central role in controlling thyroid cell metabolism.
      
 0.706
Slc7a8
Large neutral amino acids transporter small subunit 2; Sodium-independent, high-affinity transport of small and large neutral amino acids such as alanine, serine, threonine, cysteine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, leucine, arginine and tryptophan, when associated with SLC3A2/4F2hc. Acts as an amino acid exchanger. Has higher affinity for L-phenylalanine than LAT1 but lower affinity for glutamine and serine. L-alanine is transported at physiological concentrations. Plays a role in basolateral (re)absorption of neutral amino acids. Involved in the uptake of methylmercury (MeHg) when administe [...]
      
 0.686
Thrb
Thyroid hormone receptor beta; Nuclear hormone receptor that can act as a repressor or activator of transcription. High affinity receptor for thyroid hormones, including triiodothyronine and thyroxine.
    
 
 0.679
Trh
Pro-thyrotropin-releasing hormone; Functions as a regulator of the biosynthesis of TSH in the anterior pituitary gland and as a neurotransmitter/ neuromodulator in the central and peripheral nervous systems; Belongs to the TRH family.
      
 0.677
Tshb
Thyrotropin subunit beta; Indispensable for the control of thyroid structure and metabolism.
      
 0.661
