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

DLX5Homeobox protein DLX-5; Transcriptional factor involved in bone development. Could be involved in apical ectodermal ridge activity, pattern formation, and cartilage differentiation. Binds to DNA; Belongs to the distal-less homeobox family. (286 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
RUNX2
Runt-related transcription factor.
   
  
 0.790
SIX1
Sine oculis-related homeobox 1 homolog.
   
  
 0.784
LHX6
LIM homeobox 6.
   
  
 0.766
DLX6
Homeobox domain-containing protein.

FOXG1
Forkhead box protein G1; May determine the nasotemporal axis of the retina, and consequently specify the topographical projection of the retinal ganglion-cell axons to the tectum by controlling expression of their target genes.
   
 
 0.724
EYA1
Eyes absent homolog 1; Functions both as protein phosphatase and as transcriptional coactivator for SIX1, and probably also for other transcription factors of this family. Tyrosine phosphatase that dephosphorylates 'Tyr-142' of histone H2AX (H2AXY142ph) and promotes efficient DNA repair via the recruitment of DNA repair complexes containing MDC1. 'Tyr-142' phosphorylation of histone H2AX plays a central role in DNA repair and acts as a mark that distinguishes between apoptotic and repair responses to genotoxic stress. Its function as histone phosphatase may contribute to its function i [...]

BMP4
Bone morphogenetic protein 4; Negatively regulates the structure and function of the limb apical ectodermal ridge.
      
 0.711
SOX9
Transcription factor SOX-9; Transcription factor that selectively activates enhancer through its interaction with a DNA-binding partner factor. Activates enhancer of COL2A1 through its binding with DNA sequence 5'-ATTCAT-3'. In response to bone morphogenetic protein stimulus, phosphorylation is induced and then sumoylation, allowing cooperation with SNAI2 to trigger neural crest delamination. Functions at the level of mesenchymal cell condensation by inducing cartilage development in limbs and by changing the aggregation properties of limb mesenchymal cells. Regulates the cell fate dec [...]
