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

FZD4Frizzled-4; Receptor for Wnt proteins (By similarity). Most frizzled receptors are coupled to the beta-catenin canonical signaling pathway, which leads to the activation of disheveled proteins, inhibition of GSK-3 kinase, nuclear accumulation of beta-catenin and activation of Wnt target genes (By similarity). A second signaling pathway involving PKC and calcium fluxes has been seen for some family members, but it is not yet clear if it represents a distinct pathway or if it can be integrated in the canonical pathway, as PKC seems to be required for Wnt-mediated inactivation of GSK-3 ki [...] (525 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
LRP6
Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein; Component of the Wnt-Fzd-LRP5-LRP6 complex that triggers beta-catenin signaling through inducing aggregation of receptor-ligand complexes into ribosome-sized signalsomes. Belongs to the LDLR family.
    
 0.991
WNT5A
Protein Wnt; Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors; Belongs to the Wnt family.
   
 0.987
WNT11
Protein Wnt-11; Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors. May play a role in the formation of dermal structure, both limb and feather buds. Is likely to signal over only few cell diameters.
   
 0.983
NDP
CTCK domain-containing protein.
    
 
 0.975
WNT5B
Protein Wnt; Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors; Belongs to the Wnt family.
    
 0.973
RYK
Receptor like tyrosine kinase.
    
 0.967
DVL3
Dishevelled segment polarity protein 3.
   
 0.967
TSPAN12
Tetraspanin-12; Regulator of cell surface receptor signal transduction. Plays a central role in retinal vascularization by regulating norrin (NDP) signal transduction. Acts in concert with norrin (NDP) to promote FZD4 multimerization and subsequent activation of FZD4, leading to promote accumulation of beta-catenin (CTNNB1) and stimulate LEF/TCF-mediated transcriptional programs. Suprisingly, it only activate the norrin (NDP)-dependent activation of FZD4, while it does not activate the Wnt- dependent activation of FZD4, suggesting the existence of a Wnt- independent signaling that also [...]
