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

Letm1Mitochondrial proton/calcium exchanger protein; Mitochondrial proton/calcium antiporter that mediates proton- dependent calcium efflux from mitochondrion. Belongs to the LETM1 family. (1013 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
MICU1
Calcium uptake protein 1 homolog, mitochondrial; Key regulator of mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) that senses calcium level via its EF-hand domains (Probable). During development, required in alpha/beta or gamma mushroom body neurons to support olfactory intermediate-term memory in the adult ; Belongs to the MICU1 family. MICU1 subfamily.
      
 0.934
MCU
Calcium uniporter protein, mitochondrial; Mitochondrial inner membrane calcium uniporter that mediates calcium uptake into mitochondria. Constitutes a pore- forming and calcium-conducting subunit. Mitochondrial calcium homeostasis plays key roles in cellular physiology and regulates cell bioenergetics, cytoplasmic calcium signals and activation of cell death pathways. Together with Itpr, has a role in oxidative stress-induced ER-mitochondria calcium transfer. During pupation, required for memory function in mushroom body neurons. Belongs to the MCU (TC 1.A.77) family.
      
 0.874
EMRE
Essential MCU regulator, mitochondrial; Essential regulatory subunit of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter MCU channel, a protein that mediates calcium uptake into mitochondria.
      
 0.795
mRpL45
Probable 39S ribosomal protein L45, mitochondrial; Structural constituent of ribosome. It is involved in the biological process described with: mitochondrial translation.
   
 
 0.767
OXA1L
OXA1L mitochondrial inner membrane protein, isoform A; Membrane insertase activity. It is involved in the biological process described with: protein insertion into mitochondrial inner membrane from matrix; mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase assembly; respiratory chain complex IV assembly; protein insertion into membrane.

RpS9
Ribosomal protein S9 (RpS9) encodes a structural constituent of ribosomes.
    
 
 0.732
RpL23
60S ribosomal protein L23; Large ribosomal subunit rRNA binding; structural constituent of ribosome; myosin binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: translation; cytoplasmic translation; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL14 family.
    
   0.728
RpS18
Ribosomal protein S18 (RpS18) encodes a ribosomal protein located at the top of the head of the 40S subunit and contacts several helices of the 18S rRNA.
    
   0.728
RpS11
40S ribosomal protein S11; Structural constituent of ribosome. It is involved in the biological process described with: translation; cytoplasmic translation; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS17 family.
    
   0.728
RpL11
60S ribosomal protein L11; Component of the ribosome, a large ribonucleoprotein complex responsible for the synthesis of proteins in the cell. The small ribosomal subunit (SSU) binds messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and translates the encoded message by selecting cognate aminoacyl-transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules. The large subunit (LSU) contains the ribosomal catalytic site termed the peptidyl transferase center (PTC), which catalyzes the formation of peptide bonds, thereby polymerizing the amino acids delivered by tRNAs into a polypeptide chain. The nascent polypeptides leave the ribosome through [...]
