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

FeCHFerrochelatase, mitochondrial; Catalyzes the ferrous insertion into protoporphyrin IX. Belongs to the ferrochelatase family. (384 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Ppox
Protoporphyrinogen oxidase; Catalyzes the 6-electron oxidation of protoporphyrinogen-IX to form protoporphyrin-IX.
 
 
 0.996
Urod
Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase; Catalyzes the decarboxylation of four acetate groups of uroporphyrinogen-III to yield coproporphyrinogen-III.
 
  
 0.992
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.
   
 0.969
CG5037
Protoheme IX farnesyltransferase, mitochondrial; Converts protoheme IX and farnesyl diphosphate to heme O. Belongs to the ubiA prenyltransferase family.
   
 
 0.950
Ho
Heme oxygenase; Heme oxygenase cleaves the heme ring at the alpha methene bridge to form biliverdin. Biliverdin is subsequently converted to bilirubin by biliverdin reductase.
    
 0.950
Cchl
Cytochrome c heme lyase; Links covalently the heme group to the apoprotein of cytochrome c.
   
 
 0.913
Coprox
Oxygen-dependent coproporphyrinogen-III oxidase; Involved in the heme biosynthesis. Catalyzes the aerobic oxidative decarboxylation of propionate groups of rings A and B of coproporphyrinogen-III to yield the vinyl groups in protoporphyrinogen- IX (By similarity).
  
  
 0.906
l(3)02640
Lethal (3) 02640; Hydroxymethylbilane synthase activity. It is involved in the biological process described with: heme biosynthetic process; peptidyl-pyrromethane cofactor linkage.
  
  
 0.841
Pbgs
Delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase; Zinc ion binding; porphobilinogen synthase activity. It is involved in the biological process described with: heme biosynthetic process; Belongs to the ALAD family.
  
  
 0.824
Alas
Aminolevulinate synthase (Alas) encodes a mitochondrial enzyme involved in cuticle barrier formation and thought to have a role in Heme biosynthesis; Belongs to the class-II pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
