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

Mical[F-actin]-monooxygenase Mical; Monooxygenase that promotes depolymerization of F-actin by mediating oxidation of specific methionine residues on actin. Acts by modifying actin subunits at 'Met-44' and 'Met-47' through the addition of oxygen to form methionine-sulfoxide, leading to promote actin filament disassembly and prevent repolymerization. Plays a key role in semaphorin-plexin repulsive axon guidance and cell morphological changes, probably via its ability to modify and regulate actin. Belongs to the Mical family. (4743 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
PlexA
Plexin A (PlexA) encodes a transmembrane receptor for Semaphorin ligands encoded by Sema1a and Sema1b. The intracellular region of this receptor has GTPase activating protein (GAP) activity on Ras/Rap small GTPases. The signaling by the product of PlexA alters actin, microtubules and cell adhesion in developmental processes such as axon guidance.
    
 
 0.970
Sema1a
Semaphorin-1A; Semaphorin 1a (Sema1a) encodes a transmembrane protein belonging to the semaphorin protein family. It is a repulsive axon guidance cue, signaling through direct interactions with the receptor encoded by PlexA, and also functions as a receptor to regulate dendrite targeting and axon guidance. Secreted semaphorins encoded by Sema2a and Sema2b can act as the product of Sema1a ligands.
    
 
 0.807
SelR
Methionine-R-sulfoxide reductase B1; Methionine-sulfoxide reductase that specifically reduces methionine (R)-sulfoxide back to methionine. While in many cases methionine oxidation is the result of random oxidation following oxidative stress, methionine oxidation is also a post-translational modification that takes place on specific residues. Acts as a regulator of actin assembly by reducing methionine (R)-sulfoxide mediated by Mical on actin thereby promoting filament repolymerization.
   
 
 0.740
Rab8
Rab8, isoform A; Rab8 (Rab8) encodes a member of the Rab GTPase family that regulates the function of the recycling endosome, where it localizes.
   
 
 0.720
CG7029
Uncharacterized protein, isoform A; Protein phosphatase 1 binding.
   
  
 0.712
CRMP
Collapsin Response Mediator Protein (CRMP) encodes a protein that contributes to pyrimidine catabolism, beta-alanine biosynthesis, neurogenesis and behavior.
    
 
 0.696
Ehbp1
Eps15 homology domain containing protein-binding protein 1 (Ehbp1) encodes a protein that mediates asymmetric protein secretion. It regulates the trafficking and secretion of distinct Notch signaling components and extracellular membrane proteins.
   
 0.629
Rab10
LD39986p; Rab10 (Rab10) encodes a small GTPase that contributes to vesicle trafficking regulation. It is involved in basement membrane organization.
   
 
 0.628
PlexB
Plexin-B; Involved in peripheral and central nervous system axon guidance. Acts as a receptor for Sema-2a and seems to transduce signal by suppressing Rac activity and enhancing Rho activity. Belongs to the plexin family.
    
 
 0.624
Sema5c
Semaphorin 5c (Sema5c) encodes a member of the Semaphorins family, which are membrane and secreted short-range signaling proteins. The product of Sema5c is involved in olfactory behavior.
