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

Adam2Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 2; Sperm surface membrane protein that may be involved in sperm- egg plasma membrane adhesion and fusion during fertilization. Could have a direct role in sperm-zona binding or migration of sperm from the uterus into the oviduct. Interactions with egg membrane could be mediated via binding between its disintegrin-like domain to one or more integrins receptors on the egg. This is a non catalytic metalloprotease-like protein (By similarity). (737 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
LOC100360238
Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 1; May be involved in sperm-egg fusion.
  
 
0.837
Spam1
Hyaluronidase PH-20; Involved in sperm-egg adhesion. Upon fertilization sperm must first penetrate a layer of cumulus cells that surrounds the egg before reaching the zona pellucida. The cumulus cells are embedded in a matrix containing hyaluronic acid which is formed prior to ovulation. This protein aids in penetrating the layer of cumulus cells by digesting hyaluronic acid (By similarity).
   
 
 0.756
Prm2
Protamine-2; Protamines substitute for histones in the chromatin of sperm during the haploid phase of spermatogenesis. They compact sperm DNA into a highly condensed, stable and inactive complex.
   
  
 0.749
Clgn
Calmegin.
   
 
 0.680
Ropn1l
Rhophilin-associated tail protein 1-like.
   
  
 0.678
Gapdhs
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, testis-specific; May play an important role in regulating the switch between different pathways for energy production during spermiogenesis and in the spermatozoon. Required for sperm motility and male fertility (By similarity).
   
  
 0.675
Semg1
Seminal vesicle secretory protein 2; The rat seminal vesicle contains six major androgen-dependent secretory proteins referred to as SVS I-VI. The SVS I-III proteins appear to be components of the rat copulatory plug, with the SVS II protein being the major component.
   
  
 0.672
Zpbp2
Zona pellucida-binding protein 2; Is implicated in sperm-oocyte interaction during fertilization; Belongs to the zona pellucida-binding protein Sp38 family.
      
 0.672
Calr3
Calreticulin.
    
 
 0.644
Pdilt
Protein disulfide-isomerase-like protein of the testis; Probable redox-inactive chaperone involved in spermatogenesis.
   
 
 0.626
