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

Score
TAZ1Lyso-phosphatidylcholine acyltransferase; required for normal phospholipid content of mitochondrial membranes; major determinant of the final acyl chain composition of the mitochondrial-specific phospholipid cardiolipin; mutations in human ortholog tafazzin (TAZ) cause Barth syndrome, a rare X-linked disease characterized by skeletal and cardiomyopathy and bouts of cyclic neutropenia; a specific splice variant of human TAZ can complement yeast null mutant. (381 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
CRD1
Cardiolipin synthase; produces cardiolipin, which is a phospholipid of the mitochondrial inner membrane that is required for normal mitochondrial membrane potential and function and for correct integration of membrane-multispanning proteins into the mitochondrial outer membrane; required to maintain tubular mitochondrial morphology and functions in mitochondrial fusion; also required for normal vacuolar ion homeostasis; Belongs to the CDP-alcohol phosphatidyltransferase class-I family.
     
 0.988
CLD1
Mitochondrial cardiolipin-specific phospholipase; functions upstream of Taz1p to generate monolyso-cardiolipin; transcription increases upon genotoxic stress; involved in restricting Ty1 transposition; has homology to mammalian CGI-58; Belongs to the peptidase S33 family. ABHD4/ABHD5 subfamily.
   
 
 0.966
GEP4
Mitochondrial phosphatidylglycerophosphatase (PGP phosphatase); dephosphorylates phosphatidylglycerolphosphate to generate phosphatidylglycerol, an essential step during cardiolipin biosynthesis; null mutant is sensitive to tunicamycin, DTT; Belongs to the GEP4 family.
    
 
 0.848
PGS1
CDP-diacylglycerol--glycerol-3-phosphate 3-phosphatidyltransferase; Phosphatidylglycerolphosphate synthase; catalyzes the synthesis of phosphatidylglycerolphosphate from CDP-diacylglycerol and sn-glycerol 3-phosphate in the first committed and rate-limiting step of cardiolipin biosynthesis.
      
 0.833
TAM41
Mitochondrial phosphatidate cytidylyltransferase (CDP-DAG synthase); required for cardiolipin biosynthesis; viability of null mutant is strain-dependent; mRNA is targeted to the bud; mutant displays defect in mitochondrial protein import, likely due to altered membrane lipid composition; Belongs to the TAM41 family.
      
 0.827
ALE1
Broad-specificity lysophospholipid acyltransferase; part of MBOAT family of membrane-bound O-acyltransferases; key component of Lands cycle; may have role in fatty acid exchange at sn-2 position of mature glycerophospholipids; Belongs to the membrane-bound acyltransferase family.
   
  
 0.822
RAP1
DNA-binding protein RAP1; Essential DNA-binding transcription regulator that binds many loci; involved in transcription activation, repression, chromatin silencing, telomere length maintenance; relocalizes to cytosol under hypoxia; conserved protein with N-terminal BRCT domain, central region with homology to Myb DNA binding domain, and C-terminal Rap1-specific protein-interaction domain (RCT domain); recruits Sir complex to telomeric DNA; present in quiescent cell telomere hyperclusters.
      
 0.790
CST26
Uncharacterized acyltransferase CST26; Acyltransferase; enzyme mainly responsible for the introduction of saturated very long chain fatty acids into neo-synthesized molecules of phosphatidylinositol; required for incorporation of stearic acid into phosphatidylinositol; affects chromosome stability when overexpressed; CST26 has a paralog, YDR018C, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
   
  
 0.780
MGR3
Subunit of the mitochondrial (mt) i-AAA protease supercomplex; i-AAA degrades misfolded mitochondrial proteins; forms a subcomplex with Mgr1p that binds to substrates to facilitate proteolysis; required for growth of cells lacking mtDNA.
    
   0.749
PUF3
mRNA-binding protein PUF3; Protein of the mitochondrial outer surface; links the Arp2/3 complex with the mitochore during anterograde mitochondrial movement; also binds to and promotes degradation of mRNAs for select nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins.
