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

Sfxn2Sideroflexin-2; Mitochondrial amino-acid transporter that mediates transport of serine into mitochondria; Belongs to the sideroflexin family. (327 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sea
Scheggia, isoform A; Scheggia (sea) encodes a carrier protein of the inner mitochondrial membrane that plays a central role in fatty acid and sterol biosynthesis. It catalyses an electroneutral exchange of citrate for another tricarboxylate, a dicarboxylate (L-malate), or phosphoenolpyruvate across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The product of sea is also required to prevent chromosome breaks.
   
  
 0.678
nvy
Nervy, isoform D; Nervy (nvy) is a member of the MTG family of genes that have both nuclear and cytosolic functions. nvy encodes a transcriptional repressor and an A kinase anchoring protein (AKAP). It regulates repulsive axon guidance and functions in Plexin and Notch signaling pathways.
   
    0.624
Nfs1
Cysteine desulfurase, mitochondrial; Catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur from cysteine to produce alanine. It supplies the inorganic sulfur for iron-sulfur (Fe- S) clusters; Belongs to the class-V pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. NifS/IscS subfamily.
      
 0.597
Cchl
Cytochrome c heme lyase; Links covalently the heme group to the apoprotein of cytochrome c.
   
 
 0.571
fh
Frataxin homolog, mitochondrial; Promotes the biosynthesis of heme as well as the assembly and repair of iron-sulfur clusters by delivering Fe(2+) to proteins involved in these pathways. May play a role in the protection against iron-catalyzed oxidative stress through its ability to catalyze the oxidation of Fe(2+) to Fe(3+). May be able to store large amounts of the metal in the form of a ferrihydrite mineral by oligomerization. Required for ecdysteroidogenesis in the prothoracic gland which is necessary for larval to pupal transition. Belongs to the frataxin family.
   
 
 0.569
Shmt
Serine hydroxymethyl transferase (Shmt) encodes a conserved pyridoxal phosphate-containing enzyme that converts serine into glycine and N5,N10-methylentetrahydrofolate. This reaction represents a major source for activated C1 units and tetrahydrofolate-mediated C1 metabolism; Belongs to the SHMT family.
   
 
 0.553
IscU
Iron-sulfur cluster assembly enzyme; Scaffold protein for the de novo synthesis of iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters within mitochondria, which is required for maturation of both mitochondrial and cytoplasmic [2Fe-2S] and [4Fe-4S] proteins.
      
 0.516
Irp-1B
Iron regulatory protein 1B (Irp-1B) encodes a cytosolic aconitase highly homologous to the product of Irp-1A; Belongs to the aconitase/IPM isomerase family.
   
  
 0.492
Irp-1A
Iron regulatory protein 1A (Irp-1A) encodes a cytosolic aconitase that under iron deficiency (or if cytosolic superoxide is present) loses its iron-sulfur cluster, changes confirmation and binds iron regulatory elements (so far identified on the products of SdhB and Fer1HCH mRNAs); Belongs to the aconitase/IPM isomerase family.
   
  
 0.473
dnd
Dead end (dnd) encodes an Arf-like3 GTPase that controls the targeting of exocytosis machinery to specific apical domains in fusion cells during the tracheal branch fusion process.
