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

AassAlpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde synthase, mitochondrial; Bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the first two steps in lysine degradation. The N-terminal and the C-terminal contain lysine- oxoglutarate reductase and saccharopine dehydrogenase activity, respectively (By similarity). (926 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Aldh7a1
Alpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase; Multifunctional enzyme mediating important protective effects. Metabolizes betaine aldehyde to betaine, an important cellular osmolyte and methyl donor. Protects cells from oxidative stress by metabolizing a number of lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes. Involved in lysine catabolism (By similarity).
  
 
 0.960
LOC103690164
5-phosphohydroxy-L-lysine phospho-lyase; Belongs to the class-III pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
  
 
 0.937
Btd
Biotinidase; Catalytic release of biotin from biocytin, the product of biotin-dependent carboxylases degradation.
  
 
  0.817
Aasdh
Aminoadipate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase.
  
 
 0.802
Sod2
Superoxide dismutase [Mn], mitochondrial; Destroys superoxide anion radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems. Belongs to the iron/manganese superoxide dismutase family.
     
 0.764
Hgd
Homogentisate 1, 2-dioxygenase.
   
  
 0.752
Amt
Aminomethyltransferase; The glycine cleavage system catalyzes the degradation of glycine; Belongs to the GcvT family.
   
  
 0.732
Ass1
Argininosuccinate synthase; One of the enzymes of the urea cycle, the metabolic pathway transforming neurotoxic amonia produced by protein catabolism into inocuous urea in the liver of ureotelic animals (Probable). Catalyzes the formation of arginosuccinate from aspartate, citrulline and ATP and together with ASL it is responsible for the biosynthesis of arginine in most body tissues (Probable). Indirectly, may be involved in the control of blood pressure. Belongs to the argininosuccinate synthase family. Type 1 subfamily.
   
  
 0.697
Odc1
Ornithine decarboxylase; Catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step of polyamine biosynthesis that converts ornithine into putrescine, which is the precursor for the polyamines, spermidine and spermine. Polyamines are essential for cell proliferation and are implicated in cellular processes, ranging from DNA replication to apoptosis. Belongs to the Orn/Lys/Arg decarboxylase class-II family.
  
 
 0.684
Azin1
Antizyme inhibitor 1; Antizyme inhibitor (AZI) protein that positively regulates ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity and polyamine uptake. AZI is an enzymatically inactive ODC homolog that counteracts the negative effect of ODC antizymes (AZs) OAZ1, OAZ2 and OAZ3 on ODC activity by competing with ODC for antizyme-binding. Inhibits antizyme-dependent ODC degradation and releases ODC monomers from their inactive complex with antizymes, leading to formation of the catalytically active ODC homodimer and restoring polyamine production.
