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

STARD4StAR related lipid transfer domain containing 4. (207 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
STAR
Steroidogenic acute regulatory protein, mitochondrial; Plays a key role in steroid hormone synthesis by enhancing the metabolism of cholesterol into pregnenolone. Mediates the transfer of cholesterol from the outer mitochondrial membrane to the inner mitochondrial membrane where it is cleaved to pregnenolone.
     
0.628
ZCCHC9
Zinc finger CCHC-type containing 9.

ENSAPLP00000018986
PKS_AT domain-containing protein.
      
 0.586
HMGCS1
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A synthase; This enzyme condenses acetyl-CoA with acetoacetyl-CoA to form HMG-CoA, which is the substrate for HMG-CoA reductase.
   
  
 0.548
CYP46A1
Cytochrome P450 family 46 subfamily A member 1; Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.

Phosphatidylcholine transfer protein.
      
 0.499
SC5D
Sterol-C5-desaturase; Belongs to the sterol desaturase family.
   
  
 0.491
SH3GL1
SH3 domain containing GRB2 like 1, endophilin A2.
      
 0.485
HSD17B12
Hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase 12; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
      
 0.485
HDLBP
Uncharacterized protein.
      
 0.480
