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

CTCFTranscriptional repressor CTCF; Acts as both a transcriptional activator and repressor of the MYC gene. (739 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
RAD21
Uncharacterized protein.
   
 
 0.966
STAG2
Stromal antigen 2.
   
 
 0.945
CRTAM
Uncharacterized protein.
      
 0.896
SMC3
Structural maintenance of chromosomes protein.

NPM1
Nucleophosmin; Acts as a chaperonin for the core histones H3, H2B and H4. Associated with nucleolar ribonucleoprotein structures and bind single- stranded nucleic acids. It may function in the assembly and/or transport of ribosome. May stimulate endonuclease activity on apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) double-stranded DNA. May inhibit endonuclease activity on AP single-stranded RNA (By similarity). Belongs to the nucleoplasmin family.
    
 
 0.861
IGF2
Insulin-like growth factor II; The insulin-like growth factors, isolated from plasma, are structurally and functionally related to insulin but have a much higher growth-promoting activity. Acts as a ligand for integrin which is required for IGF2 signaling.
      
 0.845
CHIA
Chitin-binding type-2 domain-containing protein; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 18 family.
      
 0.840
USF1
BHLH domain-containing protein.
    
 
 0.824
H3F3C
Histone H3.3; Variant histone H3 which replaces conventional H3 in a wide range of nucleosomes in active genes. Constitutes the predominant form of histone H3 in non-dividing cells and is incorporated into chromatin independently of DNA synthesis. Deposited at sites of nucleosomal displacement throughout transcribed genes, suggesting that it represents an epigenetic imprint of transcriptionally active chromatin. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in [...]

HIST1H3H
Histone H3.2; Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling.
