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

sptl-3Serine palmitoyltransferase 3; Component of the serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) that catalyzes the first committed step in sphingolipid biosynthesis, which is the condensation of an acyl-CoA species and L-serine. The catalytic core is composed of a heterodimer of sptl-1 and sptl-2 or sptl-1 and sptl-3 (By similarity). Required for the specification of abicobasal polarity and development of the gut lumen; Belongs to the class-II pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. (521 aa)
