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

TazTafazzin (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. (378 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
CLS
Probable 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.
   
 
 0.998
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.
      
 0.890
CIA30
Complex I intermediate-associated protein 30, mitochondrial; Chaperone protein involved in the assembly of the mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex (complex I).
    
 
 0.816
mt:ND2
NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase chain 2; Core subunit of the mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (Complex I) that is believed to belong to the minimal assembly required for catalysis. Complex I functions in the transfer of electrons from NADH to the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme is believed to be ubiquinone (By similarity).
    
   0.808
Agpat3
1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity; transferase activity, transferring acyl groups.
   
  
 0.772
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.
    
 
 0.764
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.
      
 0.721
Usp15-31
Ubiquitin specific protease 15/31 (Usp15-31) encodes a ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase that is involved in the positive regulation of the apoptosome components encoded by Dark and Dronc; Belongs to the peptidase C19 family.
 
      0.684
CG33331
Phosphatidate cytidylyltransferase, mitochondrial; Catalyzes the formation of CDP-diacylglycerol (CDP-DAG) from phosphatidic acid (PA) in the mitochondrial inner membrane. Required for the biosynthesis of the dimeric phospholipid cardiolipin, which stabilizes supercomplexes of the mitochondrial respiratory chain in the mitochondrial inner membrane.
      
 0.629
oys
Oysgedart, isoform A; Oysgedart (oys) encodes a lysophospholipid acyltransferase that is required redundantly with the product of nes for germ cell migration and spermatid individualization; Belongs to the membrane-bound acyltransferase family.
