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

bgmVery long-chain-fatty-acid--CoA ligase bubblegum; Mediates activation of long-chain fatty acids for both synthesis of cellular lipids, and degradation via beta-oxidation. Probably by regulating lipid storage and catabolism, plays a role in neuronal function. (666 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Acsl
Acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain, isoform J; Long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity; palmitoyl-CoA ligase activity.

Ppt2
Palmitoyl-protein Thioesterase 2 (Ppt2) encodes a lysosomal enzyme that removes palmitoyl groups form particular target proteins during protein degradation within the lysosomal compartment. Palmitoylation is critical for the cellular localization and modulation of many signaling proteins.

hll
Long-chain-fatty-acid--CoA ligase heimdall; Mediates activation of long-chain fatty acids for both synthesis of cellular lipids, and degradation via beta-oxidation. Probably by regulating lipid storage and catabolism, plays a role in neuronal function ; Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family. Bubblegum subfamily.

CG3961
LD09909p; Long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase activity. It is involved in the biological process described with: fatty acid biosynthetic process; long-chain fatty acid metabolic process.
  
  
 
0.917
FASN3
Fatty acid synthase 3; Oxidoreductase activity; phosphopantetheine binding; fatty acid synthase activity; hydrolase activity, acting on ester bonds. It is involved in the biological process described with: biosynthetic process.
   
 0.917
FASN2
Fatty acid synthase 2 (FASN2) encodes an enzyme required for the synthesis of branched/methylated long chain fatty acids that are the precursors of methylated cuticular hydrocarbons.
   
 0.917
Mfe2
Peroxisomal Multifunctional enzyme type 2 (Mfe2) encodes a multifunctional protein harboring two separate enzyme activities: 2-enoyl-CoA hydratase 2 and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase. They function in the peroxisomal fatty acid breakdown spiral of beta-oxidation utilizing the (R)-isomer of the CoA-containing substrate; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
