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

BECN1Beclin-1; Plays a central role in autophagy (By similarity). Acts as core subunit of different PI3K complex forms that mediate formation of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate and are believed to play a role in multiple membrane trafficking pathways such as initiation of autophagosomes, maturation of autophagosomes and endocytosis (By similarity). Involved in regulation of degradative endocytic trafficking and required for the abcission step in cytokinesis, probably in the context of PI3KC3-C2 (By similarity). Belongs to the beclin family. (447 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ATG14
Autophagy related 14.
    
 0.999
BCL2
Apoptosis regulator Bcl-2; Suppresses apoptosis in a variety of cell systems including factor-dependent lymphohematopoietic and neural cells. Regulates cell death by controlling the mitochondrial membrane permeability. Appears to function in a feedback loop system with caspases. Inhibits caspase activity either by preventing the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria and/or by binding to the apoptosis-activating factor (APAF-1).
   
 
 0.999
PIK3R4
Phosphoinositide-3-kinase regulatory subunit 4.
   
 0.999
UVRAG
C2 domain-containing protein.
   
 0.999
PIK3C3
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase catalytic subunit type 3.
    
 0.999
AMBRA1
Autophagy and beclin 1 regulator 1.
    
 
 0.997
BCL2L1
Bcl-2-like protein 1; Dominant regulator of apoptotic cell death. The long form displays cell death repressor activity, whereas the short isoform promotes apoptosis. Also acts as a regulator of G2 checkpoint and progression to cytokinesis during mitosis (By similarity).
    
 
 0.996
ATG5
Autophagy protein 5; Involved in autophagic vesicle formation.
   
 
 0.995
ATG12
Ubiquitin-like protein ATG12; Ubiquitin-like protein involved in autophagic vesicle formation; Belongs to the ATG12 family.
   
 0.990
ULK1
Unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1.
    
 0.988
