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

LRP8Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 8; Cell surface receptor for Reelin (RELN) and apolipoprotein E (apoE)-containing ligands. Also binds alpha2-macroglobulin. LRP8 participates in transmitting the extracellular Reelin signal to intracellular signaling processes, by binding to DAB1 on its cytoplasmic tail. Reelin acts via both the VLDL receptor (VLDLR) and LRP8 to regulate DAB1 tyrosine phosphorylation and microtubule function in neurons. LRP8 has higher affinity for Reelin than VLDLR. LRP8 is thus a key component of the Reelin pathway which governs neuronal layering of th [...] (917 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
TCN2
Transcobalamin 2.
   
 0.913
RELN
Reelin; Extracellular matrix serine protease that plays a role in layering of neurons in the cerebral cortex and cerebellum. Regulates microtubule function in neurons and neuronal migration. Affects migration of sympathetic preganglionic neurons in the spinal cord, where it seems to act as a barrier to neuronal migration. Enzymatic activity is important for the modulation of cell adhesion. Binding to the extracellular domains of lipoprotein receptors VLDLR and LRP8/APOER2 induces tyrosine phosphorylation of DAB1 and modulation of TAU phosphorylation (By similarity); Belongs to the reel [...]
    
 
 0.910
DAB1
Disabled-1 late isoform.
    
 
 0.896
APOB
Apolipoprotein B; Apolipoprotein B is a major protein constituent of chylomicrons, VLDL and LDL. It functions as a recognition signal for the cellular binding and internalization of LDL particles by the apoB/E receptor.
    
 0.732
MAPK8IP1
Mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 interacting protein 1.
    
 
 0.602
PCSK9
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9; Belongs to the peptidase S8 family.
    
 
 0.592
JCAD
Junctional cadherin 5 associated.
      
 0.588
FAM172A
Cotranscriptional regulator FAM172A homolog; May play role in the regulation of alternative splicing. May have hydrolase activity; Belongs to the FAM172 family.
      
 0.531
FGR
Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Yrk; May participate in signaling pathways; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. SRC subfamily.
    
 0.518
LRPAP1
Uncharacterized protein.
