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

Predicted Functional Partners:
ANGPT2
Angiopoietin-2A.
   
 0.994
ANGPT1
Fibrinogen C-terminal domain-containing protein.
   
 0.990
ANGPT4
Angiopoietin 4.
   
 0.989
VEGFC
Vascular endothelial growth factor C; Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.
   
 0.860
PDGFC
Platelet-derived growth factor C, receptor-binding form; Growth factor that plays an essential role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell migration, survival and chemotaxis. Potent mitogen and chemoattractant for cells of mesenchymal origin. Required for normal skeleton formation during embryonic development. Required for normal skin morphogenesis during embryonic development. Plays an important role in wound healing, in angiogenesis and blood vessel development (By similarity).
   
 0.810
KITLG
Processed kit ligand; Ligand for the receptor-type protein-tyrosine kinase KIT. Plays an essential role in the regulation of cell survival and proliferation, hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis, mast cell development, migration and function, and in melanogenesis. KITLG/SCF binding can activate several signaling pathways. Acts synergistically with other cytokines, probably interleukins (By similarity).
    
 0.808
PDGFB
PDGF_2 domain-containing protein; Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.
   
 0.798
PGF
Placental growth factor; Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.
    
 0.763
VEGFD
PDGF_2 domain-containing protein; Belongs to the PDGF/VEGF growth factor family.
    
 0.754
GRB2
Growth factor receptor-bound protein 2; Adapter protein that provides a critical link between cell surface growth factor receptors and the Ras signaling pathway. Belongs to the GRB2/sem-5/DRK family.
   
 0.747
