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

gdnfaGlial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor; Neurotrophic factor that enhances survival and morphological differentiation of dopaminergic neurons and increases their high- affinity dopamine uptake (By similarity). Essential for the development of the enteric nervous system, but appears dispensable for the development of the kidney and primary motor neuron; Belongs to the TGF-beta family. GDNF subfamily. (235 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
gfra1b
GDNF family receptor alpha-1; Receptor for GDNF. Mediates the GDNF-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. Belongs to the GDNFR family.
   
 0.999
ret
Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase receptor Ret; Receptor tyrosine-protein kinase involved in numerous cellular mechanisms including cell proliferation, neuronal navigation, cell migration, and cell differentiation upon binding with glial cell derived neurotrophic factor family ligands.
   
 0.995
bdnf
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor; Promotes the survival of neuronal populations that are all located either in the central nervous system or directly connected to it; Belongs to the NGF-beta family.
      
 0.983
gfra2a
GDNF family receptor alpha-2; Receptor for neurturin. Mediates the NRTN-induced autophosphorylation and activation of the RET receptor. Also able to mediate GDNF signaling through the RET tyrosine kinase receptor.
   
 0.963
ntf3
Neurotrophin-3; Seems to promote the survival of visceral and proprioceptive sensory neurons; Belongs to the NGF-beta family.
      
 0.878
gfra1a
Gdnf family receptor alpha 1a.
    
 
 0.876
gfral
GDNF family receptor alpha-like.

gfra2b
GDNF family receptor alpha 2b.
    
 
 0.817
Sdc3
Syndecan; Cell surface proteoglycan; Belongs to the syndecan proteoglycan family.
      
 0.777
Edn3
END domain-containing protein.
      
 0.775
