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

fzoTransmembrane GTPase fzo; Essential transmembrane GTPase, which mediates mitochondrial fusion during spermatogenesis. In early spermatocytes, fusion of mitochondria give rise to two organelles named Nebenkern and constitutes an important step in mitochondria morphology, which is balanced between fusion and fission. Essential for fertility. (718 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
park
Parkin (park) encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase with a key role in protein ubiquitination. It is involved in mitochondrion organization, oxidative stress and locomotion; Belongs to the RBR family. Parkin subfamily.
    
 0.986
Pink1
PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (Pink1) is the ortholog of human PINK1, a gene mutated in autosomal recessive Parkinson's disease. Pink1 encodes a mitochondrially targeted Ser-Thr kinase. It has been linked to a number of cellular functions including altering mitochondrial dynamics, the autophagic degradation of dysfunctional mitochondria, and the proper function of Complex I of the electron transport chain.
    
 0.947
Marf
Transmembrane GTPase Marf; Mitochondrial assembly regulatory factor (Marf) encodes a dynamin-family GTPase that mediates outer mitochondrial membrane tethering and fusion. Marf loss causes mitochondrial fragmentation and endoplasmic reticular stress that evoke skeletal muscle, retinal and heart tube dysfunction; Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. Dynamin/Fzo/YdjA family. Mitofusin subfamily.
  
  
0.918
shi
Dynamin; Microtubule-associated force-producing protein which is involved in the production of microtubule bundles and which is able to bind and hydrolyze GTP. Implicated in endocytic protein sorting; Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. Dynamin/Fzo/YdjA family.
   
 
 0.905
Fis1
Mitochondrial fission 1 protein; Involved in the fragmentation of the mitochondrial network and its perinuclear clustering. Functions downstream of Pink1 and upstream of Drp1 to regulate mitochondrial fission.
    
 
 0.903
rpr
Cell death protein rpr; Reaper (rpr) encodes Reaper, Hid, Grim (RHG) protein. It contributes to the caspase dependent apoptosis by inhibiting the anti-apoptotic protein encoded by Diap1.
     
  0.900
Miro
Mitochondrial Rho GTPase; Mitochondrial GTPase involved in mitochondrial trafficking. Milt and Miro form an essential protein complex that links Khc to mitochondria for light chain-independent, anterograde transport of mitochondria. Required for axonal transport to synapses within nerve terminals. Required presynaptically but not postsynaptically at neuromuscular junctions (NMJs).
  
 0.845
porin
Voltage-dependent anion-selective channel; Porin (porin) encodes a beta-barrel channel protein localized in the outer membrane of mitochondria that conducts translocation of various ions and metabolites between cytoplasm and mitochondria. It plays roles in mitochondria dynamics and mitophagy, and is ubiquitinated by the E3 ligases encoded by park and Mul1.
   
 0.839
Opa1
Optic atrophy 1 (Opa1) encodes a dynamin-related GTPase that mediates fusion of the inner membrane of mitochondria. It usually works with the product of Marf to coordinately fuse both mitochondrial membranes. The product of Opa1 activity is regulated by proteolytic processing; Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. Dynamin/Fzo/YdjA family.
   
  
 0.833
Drp1
Dynamin related protein 1 (Drp1) encodes a dynamin-like GTPase that mediates mitochondrial fission through a process that involves translocation to the mitochondrial outer membrane and oligomerization. It is required for normal neuronal development and maintenance of postmitotic neuronal function and viability; Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. Dynamin/Fzo/YdjA family.
