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

ANGPTL4Angiopoietin-related protein 4. (239 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
LPL
Lipoprotein lipase; Key enzyme in triglyceride metabolism. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of triglycerides from circulating chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), and thereby plays an important role in lipid clearance from the blood stream, lipid utilization and storage. Mediates margination of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein particles in capillaries. Recruited to its site of action on the luminal surface of vascular endothelium by binding to GPIHBP1 and cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans.

ANGPTL8
Angiopoietin like 8.
    
 0.971
GPIHBP1
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored high density lipoprotein-binding protein 1 isoform X2.
   
 
 0.931
TIE1
Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor Tie-1.
   
 0.564
PPARG
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma; Nuclear receptor that binds peroxisome proliferators such as hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Once activated by a ligand, the nuclear receptor binds to DNA specific PPAR response elements (PPRE) and modulates the transcription of its target genes, such as acyl-CoA oxidase. It therefore controls the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway of fatty acids. Key regulator of adipocyte differentiation and glucose homeostasis. ARF6 acts as a key regulator of the tissue-specific adipocyte P2 (aP2) enhancer. Acts as a critical regulator of gut ho [...]

PDK4
Protein-serine/threonine kinase.
   
  
 0.560
TEK
TEK receptor tyrosine kinase.
   
 0.558
PLIN2
Perilipin-2.
   
 0.505
LMF1
Lipase maturation factor; Involved in the maturation of specific proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum; Belongs to the lipase maturation factor family.
    
 0.493
TIMP3
TIMP metallopeptidase inhibitor 3.
