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

UV8b_6090Elongation of fatty acids protein. (339 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
UV8b_3614
Acyl-CoA desaturase; Stearyl-CoA desaturase that utilizes O(2) and electrons from reduced cytochrome b5 to introduce the first double bond into saturated fatty acyl-CoA substrates.
    
 0.879
UV8b_4901
Steroid alpha reductase family protein.
    
 0.856
UV8b_3947
Very-long-chain 3-oxoacyl-CoA reductase; Component of the microsomal membrane bound fatty acid elongation system, which produces the 26-carbon very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA) from palmitate. Catalyzes the reduction of the 3- ketoacyl-CoA intermediate that is formed in each cycle of fatty acid elongation. VLCFAs serve as precursors for ceramide and sphingolipids.
    
 0.826
UV8b_2637
Short chain dehydrogenase.
    
 0.824
UV8b_7736
Very-long-chain (3R)-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase; Catalyzes the third of the four reactions of the long-chain fatty acids elongation cycle. This endoplasmic reticulum-bound enzymatic process, allows the addition of two carbons to the chain of long- and very long-chain fatty acids/VLCFAs per cycle. This enzyme catalyzes the dehydration of the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA intermediate into trans-2,3-enoyl-CoA, within each cycle of fatty acid elongation. Thereby, it participates to the production of VLCFAs of different chain lengths that are involved in multiple biological processes as precursors [...]
    
 0.808
UV8b_7454
3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase; Belongs to the thiolase-like superfamily. Beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthases family.
     
 0.767
UV8b_7737
APH domain-containing protein.
    
 0.534
UV8b_4694
Uncharacterized protein.
    
 0.534
UV8b_7781
Fatty acid desaturase.
     
 0.527
UV8b_7782
Cytochrome b5 heme-binding domain-containing protein.
     
 0.527
