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

msx1bHomeobox protein MSH-B; Probable morphogenetic role; Belongs to the Msh homeobox family. (257 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fgf20a
Fibroblast growth factor; Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family.

arl6
ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 6; Probably involved in membrane protein trafficking at the base of the ciliary organelle. May function in cilia biogenesis. Isoform 2 is required for proper retinal function and organization. Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Arf family.
      
 0.560
fgfr1a
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 1-A; Tyrosine-protein kinase that acts as cell-surface receptor for fibroblast growth factors and plays an essential role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, differentiation and migration. Required for normal mesoderm patterning and normal skeletogenesis. Phosphorylates PLCG1, FRS2, GAB1 and SHB. Ligand binding leads to the activation of several signaling cascades. Activation of PLCG1 leads to the production of the cellular signaling molecules diacylglycerol and inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate. Phosphorylation of FRS2 triggers [...]

wnt10a
Protein Wnt-10a; Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors (Probable). Required for normal tooth development. Regulates the expression of genes involved in tooth development. Belongs to the Wnt family.

lef1
Lymphocyte enhancer binding factor 1 Lef1.

foxd3
Forkhead box D3.

shha
Sonic hedgehog protein A N-product; Sonic hedgehog protein: The C-terminal part of the sonic hedgehog protein precursor displays an autoproteolysis and a cholesterol transferase activity (By similarity). Both activities result in the cleavage of the full-length protein into two parts (ShhN and ShhC) followed by the covalent attachment of a cholesterol moiety to the C-terminal of the newly generated ShhN (By similarity). Both activities occur in the reticulum endoplasmic (By similarity). Once cleaved, ShhC is degraded in the endoplasmic reticulum (By similarity).
