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

CLSProbable cardiolipin synthase (CMP-forming); Catalyzes the synthesis of cardiolipin (CL) (diphosphatidylglycerol) by specifically transferring a phosphatidyl group from CDP-diacylglycerol to phosphatidylglycerol (PG). CL is a key phospholipid in mitochondrial membranes and plays important roles in maintaining the functional integrity and dynamics of mitochondria under both optimal and stress conditions. (322 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Taz
Tafazzin (Taz) encodes a mitochondrial phospholipid-lysophospholipid transacylase that exchange acyl groups between cardiolipin molecules and other phospholipids. It plays a critical role in maintaining a normal cardiolipin composition required for optimal mitochondrial function.

CG7718
CDP-diacylglycerol--glycerol-3-phosphate 3-phosphatidyltransferase; Functions in the biosynthesis of the anionic phospholipids phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin; Belongs to the CDP-alcohol phosphatidyltransferase class-II family.
  
 
 0.988
Cds
Phosphatidate cytidylyltransferase, photoreceptor-specific; Catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidic acid (PA) to CDP- diacylglycerol (CDP-DAG), an important precursor for the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) and phosphatidylglycerol (PG). Required for the regeneration of the signaling molecule phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) from PA and maintenance of its steady supply during signaling thus playing an essential role during phospholipase C-mediated transduction. In the salivary glands and possibly other adipose tissues, function is essential for regulating ce [...]

Pis
CDP-diacylglycerol--inositol 3-phosphatidyltransferase; Catalyzes the biosynthesis of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) as well as PtdIns:inositol exchange reaction. May thus act to reduce an excessive cellular PtdIns content (By similarity). The exchange activity is due to the reverse reaction of PtdIns synthase and is dependent on CMP, which is tightly bound to the enzyme (By similarity). Required for the regeneration of the signaling molecule phosphatidylinositol 4,5- bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) from phosphatidic acid (PA) and maintenance of its steady supply during signaling, thus playing [...]
     
 0.950
LPCAT
Lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase; Acetyltransferase which mediates the conversion of 1-acyl-sn- glycero-3-phosphocholine (LPC) into phosphatidylcholine (PC) (By similarity). Has a calcium-independent activity (By similarity). Displays a clear preference for saturated fatty acyl-CoAs, and 1- myristoyl or 1-palmitoyl LPC as acyl donors and acceptors, respectively (By similarity). Involved in the regulation of lipid droplet number and size.
  
 0.925
Pisd
Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase proenzyme, mitochondrial; Catalyzes the formation of phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn) from phosphatidylserine (PtdSer). Plays a central role in phospholipid metabolism and in the interorganelle trafficking of phosphatidylserine. Belongs to the phosphatidylserine decarboxylase family. PSD-B subfamily. Eukaryotic type I sub-subfamily.

Nmdmc
Bifunctional methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase, mitochondrial; May play a role in spermatogenesis.
  
  
 0.771
Gart
Trifunctional purine biosynthetic protein adenosine-3; GART trifunctional enzyme (Gart) encodes a multifunctional enzyme that exhibits phosphoribosylamine-glycine ligase, phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine cyclo-ligase and phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase activities; In the N-terminal section; belongs to the GARS family. In the C-terminal section; belongs to the GART family.
  
  
 0.757
PTPMT1
Phosphatidylglycerophosphatase and protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1; Lipid phosphatase that may mediate dephosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins (By similarity). Protein phosphatase that may mediate dephosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins (By similarity). Does not dephosphorylate Akt.

iPLA2-VIA
Calcium-independent phospholipase A2 VIA (iPLA2-VIA) encodes a protein that localizes to cytosol and mitochondria involved in repairing oxidized mitochondrial lipids, such as cardiolipin, and thus preventing cytochrome c release. It is partially responsible for cardiolipin depletion and monolysocardiolipin accumulation in Taz-deficient flies, which is a model of Barth syndrome.
