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

Kiss1Metastasis-suppressor KiSS-1; Metastasis suppressor protein. May regulate events downstream of cell-matrix adhesion, perhaps involving cytoskeletal reorganization. Generates a C-terminally amidated peptide, metastin which functions as the endogenous ligand of the G-protein coupled receptor GPR54. The receptor is also essential for normal gonadotropin-released hormone physiology and for puberty. The hypothalamic KiSS1/GPR54 system is a pivotal factor in central regulation of the gonadotropic axis at puberty and in adulthood. Intracerebroventricular administration induces an increase in [...] (130 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Kiss1r
KiSS-1 receptor; Receptor for metastin, a C-terminally amidated peptide of KiSS1. KiSS1 is a metastasis suppressor protein. Activation of the receptor inhibits cell proliferation and cell migration, key characteristics of tumor metastasis. The receptor is essential for normal gonadotropin-released hormone physiology and for puberty. The hypothalamic KiSS1/KISS1R system is a pivotal factor in central regulation of the gonadotropic axis at puberty and in adulthood. Analysis of the transduction pathways activated by the receptor identifies coupling to phospholipase C and intracellular cal [...]

Umps
Uridine monophosphate synthetase, isoform CRA_a.
  
 
 0.934
Dhodh
Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (quinone), mitochondrial; Catalyzes the conversion of dihydroorotate to orotate with quinone as electron acceptor.
  
 
 0.851
Dpyd
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase [NADP(+)]; Involved in pyrimidine base degradation. Catalyzes the reduction of uracil and thymine (By similarity).
  
 
 0.851
Tacr3
Neuromedin-K receptor; This is a receptor for the tachykinin neuropeptide neuromedin-K (neurokinin B). It is associated with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. The rank order of affinity of this receptor to tachykinins is: neuromedin-K > substance K > substance P.
      
 0.815
Gnrhr
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor; Receptor for gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) that mediates the action of GnRH to stimulate the secretion of the gonadotropic hormones luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This receptor mediates its action by association with G- proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system.
      
 0.801
Tac3
Neurokinin-B; Tachykinins are active peptides which excite neurons, evoke behavioral responses, are potent vasodilators and secretagogues, and contract (directly or indirectly) many smooth muscles. Is a critical central regulator of gonadal function (By similarity); Belongs to the tachykinin family.
      
 0.798
Gnrh1
Prolactin release-inhibiting factor 1; Stimulates the secretion of gonadotropins; it stimulates the secretion of both luteinizing and follicle-stimulating hormones.
      
 0.770
Gart
Trifunctional purine biosynthetic protein adenosine-3; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the GART family. In the central section; belongs to the AIR synthase family.
  
  
 0.754
Npvf
Pro-FMRFamide-related neuropeptide VF; Neuropeptide RFRP-1 acts as a potent negative regulator of gonadotropin synthesis and secretion. Neuropeptides NPSF and NPVF efficiently inhibit forskolin-induced production of cAMP (By similarity). Neuropeptide NPVF blocks morphine-induced analgesia.
