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

OSH7Oxysterol-binding protein; part of family with seven members in S. cerevisiae; family members have overlapping, redundant functions in sterol metabolism and collectively perform a function essential for viability; OSH7 has a paralog, OSH6, that arose from the whole genome duplication. (437 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
OSH6
Member of an oxysterol-binding protein family; family members have overlapping, redundant functions in sterol metabolism and collectively perform a function essential for viability; GFP-fusion protein localizes to the cell periphery; overexpression extends lifespan by promoting vacuolar fusion; OSH6 has a paralog, OSH7, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

VPS4
AAA-ATPase involved in multivesicular body (MVB) protein sorting; ATP-bound Vps4p localizes to endosomes and catalyzes ESCRT-III disassembly and membrane release; ATPase activity is activated by Vta1p; regulates cellular sterol metabolism.
    
 
 0.897
SCS2
Integral ER membrane protein, regulates phospholipid metabolism; one of 6 proteins (Ist2p, Scs2p, Scs22p, Tcb1p, Tcb2p, Tcb3p) that connect ER to plasma membrane (PM) and regulate PI4P levels by controlling access of Sac1p phosphatase to substrate PI4P in the PM; interacts with FFAT motifs in Opi1p, Swh1p, Osh2p, and Osh3p; involved in telomeric silencing; VAP homolog; SCS2 has a paralog, SCS22, that arose from the whole genome duplication; Belongs to the VAMP-associated protein (VAP) (TC 9.B.17) family.
   
 
 0.883
SAC1
Phosphoinositide phosphatase SAC1; Phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PtdInsP) phosphatase; involved in hydrolysis of PtdIns[4]P in the early and medial Golgi; regulated by interaction with Vps74p; ER localized transmembrane protein which cycles through the Golgi; involved in protein trafficking and processing, secretion, and cell wall maintenance; regulates sphingolipid biosynthesis through the modulation of PtdIns(4)P metabolism.
    
 
 0.881
IST2
Increased sodium tolerance protein 2; Cortical ER protein involved in ER-plasma membrane tethering; one of 6 proteins (Ist2p, Scs2p, Scs22p, Tcb1p, Tcb2p, Tcb3p) that connect ER to the plasma membrane (PM) and regulate PM phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI4P) levels by controlling access of Sac1p phosphatase to its substrate PI4P in the PM; localizes to the mother cell in small-budded cells and to the bud in medium- and large-budded cells; mRNA is transported to the bud tip by an actomyosin-driven process.
    
 
 0.801
SCS22
Vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated protein SCS22; Protein involved in regulation of phospholipid metabolism; one of 6 proteins (Ist2p, Scs2p, Scs22p, Tcb1p, Tcb2p, Tcb3p) that connect the ER and plasma membrane (PM); regulates PM PI4P levels by controlling access of the Sac1p phosphatase to its substrate, PI4P; human VAP homolog; similar to D. melanogaster inturned protein; SWAT-GFP and mCherry fusion proteins localize to the cytosol; SCS22 has a paralog, SCS2, that arose from the whole genome duplication; Belongs to the VAMP-associated protein (VAP) (TC 9.B.17) family.
