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

GLP2RGlucagon like peptide 2 receptor; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family. (525 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
GCG
Glicentin-related polypeptide; Glucagon plays a key role in glucose metabolism and homeostasis. Regulates blood glucose by increasing gluconeogenesis and decreasing glycolysis. A counterregulatory hormone of insulin, raises plasma glucose levels in response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia (By similarity). GLP-2 stimulates intestinal growth and up-regulates villus height in the small intestine, concomitant with increased crypt cell proliferation and decreased enterocyte apoptosis. The gastrointestinal tract, from the stomach to the colon is the principal target for GLP-2 action. Plays a [...]
    
 0.954
GIP
Gastric inhibitory polypeptide.
    
 0.925
FAP
Fibroblast activation protein alpha; Belongs to the peptidase S9B family.
    
 0.884
GLP1R
Glucagon like peptide 1 receptor; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family.
  
 
0.812
CRH
Corticotropin releasing hormone.
    
 0.812
GNG2
Guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit gamma; Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems. The beta and gamma chains are required for the GTPase activity, for replacement of GDP by GTP, and for G protein-effector interaction.
    
  0.810
ADCYAP1
Adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide 1.
    
 0.804
GHRH
Growth hormone releasing hormone.
    
 0.793
DPP4
Dipeptidyl peptidase 4; Belongs to the peptidase S9B family.
   
 0.793
VIP
Vasoactive intestinal peptide; VIP causes vasodilation, lowers arterial blood pressure, stimulates myocardial contractility, increases glycogenolysis and relaxes the smooth muscle of trachea, stomach and gall bladder; Belongs to the glucagon family.
