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

PxnPeroxidasin; Plays a role in extracellular matrix consolidation, phagocytosis and defense. (1527 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
vkg
Viking, isoform A; Viking (vkg) encodes a subunit of Collagen IV and a major component of basement membranes. It is secreted by haemocytes and fat body cells and is required for the normal morphogenesis of many tissues. It also contributes to TGF-beta signalling in the early embryo and the developing Malpighian tubules.
   
 
 0.898
Glt
Glutactin (Glt) encodes a secreted protein that belongs to the family of cholinesterase/carboxylesterase-like proteins but lacks the catalytically active residues. It forms part of the basement membrane and regulates axonal outgrowth.
   
 
 0.752
Hml
Hemolectin, isoform A; Hemolectin (Hml) encodes a large multidomain protein produced by hemocytes and involved in the clotting reaction.
   
 
 0.746
PPO1
Prophenoloxidase 1 (PPO1) encodes a protein produced by crystal cells (a type of hemocyte cell) and is involved in the melanization reaction, notably upon wounding. It is thought to be activated by proteolytic cleavage by the serine protease encoded by Hayan.
   
 
 0.710
PPO2
Prophenoloxidase 2 (PPO2) encodes a protein stored in large crystals in the crystal cells (a type of hemocyte cell) that is involved in the melanization reaction. It contributes to melanization around wounds and wasp encapsulation and is thought to be activated by proteolytic cleavage by the product of Hayan.
   
 
 0.692
He
Hemocyte-specific protein HEMESE; It is involved in the biological process described with: encapsulation of foreign target; negative regulation of lamellocyte differentiation; innate immune response.
   
  
 0.681
crq
Croquemort (crq) encodes a member of the scavenger receptor class B sub-family. It is expressed in plasmatocyte/macrophages and promotes apoptotic cell clearance. In epidermal cells it plays a role in phagosome maturation in both dendrite pruning and injury.
      
 0.680
NimC1
Nimrod C1, isoform B; It is involved in the biological process described with: defense response to bacterium; phagocytosis.
   
  
 0.678
Ndg
Nidogen; Cell adhesion glycoprotein which is widely distributed in basement membranes. Involved in cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions probably by connecting the laminin and collagen IV networks. Required for permeability and mechanical stability of basement membranes, and ECM dependent neural plasticity. Not involved in assembly of the embryonic basement membrane.
      
 0.671
Tig
Tiggrin (Tig) is an extracellular matrix protein and integrin ligand that accumulates at the embryonic and larval muscle attachment site. It is also found as a component of the hemolymph clot.
