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

sim1bSIM bHLH transcription factor 1b. (586 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
arnt2
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator 2; Transcription factor that plays a role in the development of the hypothalamo-pituitary axis. Specifically recognizes the xenobiotic response element (XRE) (By similarity). Isoform 1 acts as a transcriptional activator. Isoform 3 acts as a transcriptional repressor.
    
 
0.943
otpa
Orthopedia homeobox a.
   
  
 0.880
otpb
Homeobox protein orthopedia B; Involved in the specification of isotocin cells. Required for the specification of dopaminergic neurons in the developing hypothalamus and posterior tuberculum; Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily.
   
  
 0.880
oxt
Oxytocin; Belongs to the vasopressin/oxytocin family.
      
 0.829
mc4r
Melanocortin receptor 4; Receptor specific to the heptapeptide core common to adrenocorticotropic hormone and alpha-, beta-, and gamma-MSH. Plays a central role in energy homeostasis and somatic growth. This receptor is mediated by G proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase (cAMP).
      
 0.820
trh
Pro-thyrotropin-releasing hormone; Functions as a regulator of the biosynthesis of TSH in the anterior pituitary gland and as a neurotransmitter/ neuromodulator in the central and peripheral nervous systems; Belongs to the TRH family.
      
 0.746
arnt
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator.
    
 
0.744
agrp
Agouti-related neuropeptide.
      
 0.671
nkx2.2a
Homeobox protein Nkx-2.2a; Transcriptional activator involved in the development of insulin-producting beta cells in the endocrine pancreas (By similarity). May also be involved in specifying diencephalic neuromeric boundaries, and in controlling the expression of genes that play a role in axonal guidance. Binds to elements within the NEUROD1 promoter (By similarity).
   
 
 0.665
pomca
Pro-opiomelanocortin protein.
   
  
 0.654
