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

angpt2bAngiopoietin 2b. (489 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
tek
Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor Tie-2; Tyrosine-protein kinase that acts as cell-surface receptor for angiopoietins and regulates angiogenesis, endothelial cell survival, proliferation, migration, adhesion and cell spreading, reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, but also maintenance of vascular quiescence. Can activate or inhibit angiogenesis, depending on the context. Angiopoietin signaling triggers receptor dimerization and autophosphorylation at specific tyrosine residues that then serve as binding sites for scaffold proteins and effectors (By similarity).
   
 0.999
kdr
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2; Receptor for VEGF or VEGFC. Has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity. Combinations of multiple VEGF receptors are required for development of different blood vessel types in the embryo. Involved in angiogenesis, specifically in VEGF-induced sprouting of new blood vessels. Particularly involved in artery formation. Does not appear to be required for hematopoiesis.
   
 0.947
kdrl
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor kdr-like; Receptor for VEGF or VEGFC. Has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity. Combinations of multiple VEGF receptors are required for development of different blood vessel types in the embryo. Involved in angiogenesis, specifically in VEGF-induced sprouting of new blood vessels. Particularly involved in artery formation. Does not appear to be required for hematopoiesis.
   
 0.946
flt1
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 isoform 1 precursor; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. CSF-1/PDGF receptor subfamily.
   
 0.919
tie1
Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor Tie-1; Transmembrane tyrosine-protein kinase that may modulate TEK/TIE2 activity and contribute to the regulation of angiogenesis.
   
 
 0.914
flt4
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3; Tyrosine-protein kinase that acts as a cell-surface receptor for vegf or vegfc. Combinations of multiple VEGF receptors are required for development of different blood vessel types in the embryo. Involved in angiogenesis, specifically in VEGF-induced sprouting of new blood vessels, but not required for proper vasculogenesis or hematopoiesis.
   
 0.911
pdgfba
Platelet-derived growth factor beta polypeptide a; Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.
      
 0.810
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 [...]

pdgfrb
Platelet-derived growth factor receptor, beta polypeptide; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. CSF-1/PDGF receptor subfamily.
    
 0.780
fgfr2
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2; Tyrosine-protein kinase that acts as cell-surface receptor for fibroblast growth factors and plays an essential role in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, migration and apoptosis, and in the regulation of embryonic development. Required for normal embryonic patterning, limb bud development, lung morphogenesis, osteogenesis and skin development. Plays an essential role in the regulation of osteoblast differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis, and is required for normal skeleton development. Promotes cell proliferation in kerati [...]
