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

nkx2.5NK2 homeobox 5. (314 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
tbx5a
T-box transcription factor TBX5-A; Required for pectoral fin formation. Together with tbx5b, involved in eye and heart development. Required for the looping stage of heart development. May bind to the core DNA motif of promoters.
   
 
 0.999
gata4
GATA-binding protein 4.
   
 
 0.999
mef2ca
Myocyte enhancer factor 2ca.
    
 
 0.984
hand2
Heart- and neural crest derivatives-expressed protein 2; Essential for myocardial and pectoral fin differentiation, patterning and morphogenesis.
   
 
 0.981
tbx20
T-box transcription factor TBX20; Transcriptional regulator that may play a very early role in the differentiation of the cardiac precursors.
   
 
 0.980
gata6
GATA-binding protein 6.
   
 
 0.972
isl1
Insulin gene enhancer protein isl-1; DNA-binding transcriptional activator. Recognizes and binds to the consensus octamer binding site 5'-ATAATTAA-3' in promoter of target genes. Plays a fundamental role in the gene regulatory network essential for retinal ganglion cell (RGC) differentiation. May be involved in subtype specialization of primary motoneurons. May bind to insulin gene enhancer sequences. Essential for heart development (By similarity).
   
 
 0.965
gata5
Transcription factor gata5.
   
 
 0.964
myh6
Myosin, heavy chain 6, cardiac muscle, alpha; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Myosin family.
   
  
 0.952
nppa
Natriuretic peptide A.
   
  
 0.952
