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

CryaaAlpha-crystallin A(1-151); Contributes to the transparency and refractive index of the lens (By similarity). Has chaperone-like activity, preventing aggregation of various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions (By similarity). Required for the correct formation of lens intermediate filaments as part of a complex composed of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA (By similarity). C-terminal truncated forms alpha-crystallin A(1-162), alpha-crystallin A(1-157) and alpha-crystallin A(1-151) have lower chaperone activity. Belongs to the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family. (196 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Cryab
Alpha-crystallin B chain; May contribute to the transparency and refractive index of the lens. Has chaperone-like activity, preventing aggregation of various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions; Belongs to the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family.
