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

mcuTryptase alpha/beta 1. (320 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
micu1
Calcium uptake protein 1, mitochondrial; Key regulator of mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) that senses calcium level via its EF-hand domains. micu1 and micu2 form a disulfide-linked heterodimer that stimulates and inhibits mcu activity, depending on the concentration of calcium. Micu1 acts both as an activator or inhibitor of mitochondrial calcium uptake. Acts as a gatekeeper of mcu at low concentration of calcium, preventing channel opening. Enhances mcu opening at high calcium concentration, allowing a rapid response of mitochondria to calcium signals generated in the cytoplasm.

smdt1
Essential MCU regulator, mitochondrial; Essential regulatory subunit of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter complex (uniplex), a complex that mediates calcium uptake into mitochondria. Plays a central role in regulating the uniplex complex response to intracellular calcium signaling.
    
 
 0.723
MICU2
Mitochondrial calcium uptake 2.
