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

lapPhosphatidylinositol-binding clathrin assembly protein LAP; Assembly protein recruiting clathrin and adaptor protein complex 2 (AP2) to cell membranes at sites of coated-pit formation and clathrin-vesicle assembly. May be required to determine the amount of membrane to be recycled, possibly by regulating the size of the clathrin cage. Involved in AP2-dependent clathrin-mediated endocytosis at the neuromuscular junction; Belongs to the PICALM/SNAP91 family. (788 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
aux
Auxilin, isoform A; Auxilin (aux) encodes a co-factor for the ATPase Hsc70 that regulates Clathrin dynamics. It regulates Notch signaling, eye morphogenesis, sperm individualization and neuron death.

Eps-15
Epidermal growth factor receptor pathway substrate clone 15 (Eps-15) encodes a multi-domain adaptor protein involved in endocytosis. It interacts with several other endocytic factors such as those encoded by shi, stnB, Dap160 and AP-2alpha. It is enriched at sites of endocytosis and is required for normal synaptic bouton development and vesicle endocytosis during high frequency stimulation.
    
 0.928
Chc
Clathrin heavy chain (Chc) encodes a protein that forms part of the clathrin complex, which is the major component of coated vesicles.
   
 0.922
AP-2alpha
AP-2 complex subunit alpha; Adaptins are components of the adapter complexes which link clathrin to receptors in coated vesicles. Clathrin-associated protein complexes are believed to interact with the cytoplasmic tails of membrane proteins, leading to their selection and concentration. AP- 2alpha is a subunit of the plasma membrane adapter.

Hip1
Huntingtin interacting protein 1, isoform A; It is involved in the biological process described with: positive regulation of receptor-mediated endocytosis; clathrin coat assembly; actin filament organization.
    
 0.901
RpS27A
Ubiquitin-40S ribosomal protein S27a; Ubiquitin exists either covalently attached to another protein, or free (unanchored). When covalently bound, it is conjugated to target proteins via an isopeptide bond either as a monomer (monoubiquitin), a polymer linked via different Lys residues of the ubiquitin (polyubiquitin chains) or a linear polymer linked via the initiator Met of the ubiquitin (linear polyubiquitin chains). Polyubiquitin chains, when attached to a target protein, have different functions depending on the Lys residue of the ubiquitin that is linked: Lys-48-linked is involve [...]

RpL40
Ubiquitin-60S ribosomal protein L40; [Ubiquitin]: exists either covalently attached to another protein, or free (unanchored). When covalently bound, it is conjugated to target proteins via an isopeptide bond either as a monomer (monoubiquitin), a polymer linked via different Lys residues of the ubiquitin (polyubiquitin chains) or a linear polymer linked via the initiator Met of the ubiquitin (linear polyubiquitin chains). Polyubiquitin chains, when attached to a target protein, have different functions depending on the Lys residue of the ubiquitin that is linked: Lys-48-linked is invol [...]

cindr
CIN85 and CD2AP related (cindr) encodes an adaptor protein that links cell surface junctions and adhesion proteins with multiple components of the actin cytoskeleton. It regulates cytoskeletal dynamics, eye patterning and endocytosis. It also cooperates with the product of scra to promote intercellular bridge stability during cytokinesis.

nSyb
Neuronal synaptobrevin, isoform J; Neuronal Synaptobrevin (nSyb) encodes a SNAP receptor involved in vesicle fusion.
   
 0.849
Syb
Synaptobrevin; Unknown, but synaptobrevins are presumed to be involved in targeting and fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane as well as in neurotransmitter release.
