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

eif1a-3Translation initiation factor 1A; Seems to be required for maximal rate of protein biosynthesis. Enhances ribosome dissociation into subunits and stabilizes the binding of the initiator Met-tRNA(I) to 40 S ribosomal subunits. (106 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpl2
LSU ribosomal protein L8e (L2p); One of the primary rRNA binding proteins. Required for association of the 30S and 50S subunits to form the 70S ribosome, for tRNA binding and peptide bond formation. It has been suggested to have peptidyltransferase activity; this is somewhat controversial. Makes several contacts with the 16S rRNA in the 70S ribosome. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL2 family.
 
 0.999
eif2b
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 beta subunit; eIF-2 functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA. Belongs to the eIF-2-beta/eIF-5 family.
 
 0.989
eif2g
Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 gamma subunit; eIF-2 functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA. Belongs to the TRAFAC class translation factor GTPase superfamily. Classic translation factor GTPase family. EIF2G subfamily.
 
 0.988
rps15
SSU ribosomal protein S13e (S15p).
 
 0.974
rpl7ae
LSU ribosomal protein L7Ae; Multifunctional RNA-binding protein that recognizes the K- turn motif in ribosomal RNA, the RNA component of RNase P, box H/ACA, box C/D and box C'/D' sRNAs.
 
 0.971
rps12
SSU ribosomal protein S23e (S12p); With S4 and S5 plays an important role in translational accuracy. Located at the interface of the 30S and 50S subunits. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS12 family.
 
 0.971
rps9
SSU ribosomal protein S16e (S9p); Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS9 family.
 
 0.970
rps4e
SSU ribosomal protein S4e; Belongs to the eukaryotic ribosomal protein eS4 family.
  
 0.963
rpl24
LSU ribosomal protein L26e (L24p); Located at the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit.
 
 0.963
rps8
SSU ribosomal protein S15Ae (S8p); One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA central domain where it helps coordinate assembly of the platform of the 30S subunit; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS8 family.
