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

IL5Interleukin-5; Factor that induces terminal differentiation of late- developing B-cells to immunoglobulin secreting cells. (135 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Il5ra
Interleukin-5 receptor alpha.
   
 0.999
IL2
Interleukin-2; Produced by T-cells in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation, this protein is required for T-cell proliferation and other activities crucial to regulation of the immune response. Belongs to the IL-2 family.
   
 
 0.962
IL13
Interleukin 13.
   
 
 0.959
Il4
Interleukin-4.
   
 
 0.951
IL7
Interleukin 7.
     
 0.947
CSF2RB
Fibronectin type-III domain-containing protein.
    
 0.936
IL4R
Interleukin 4 receptor.
     
 0.882
IL1B
Interleukin-1 beta; Potent proinflammatory cytokine. Initially discovered as the major endogenous pyrogen, induces prostaglandin synthesis, neutrophil influx and activation, T-cell activation and cytokine production, B- cell activation and antibody production, and fibroblast proliferation and collagen production. Promotes Th17 differentiation of T-cells. Synergizes with IL12/interleukin-12 to induce IFNG synthesis from T- helper 1 (Th1) cells; Belongs to the IL-1 family.
   
  
 0.876
IL2RA
Interleukin 2 receptor subunit alpha.
     
 0.866
IL9
Interleukin 9.
   
  
 0.866
