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

IFNW1Interferon type B; Has antiviral activities; Belongs to the alpha/beta interferon family. (203 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
IRF7
Interferon regulatory factor 3; Key transcriptional regulator of type I interferon (IFN)- dependent immune responses which plays a critical role in the innate immune response against DNA and RNA viruses. Regulates the transcription of type I IFN genes (IFN-alpha and IFN-beta) and IFN- stimulated genes (ISG) by binding to an interferon-stimulated response element (ISRE) in their promoters. May activate transcription by complex formation with other transcriptional factors, possibly members of the STAT family. Binds specifically to the IFN-stimulated response element (ISRE) but not to the [...]

IFNAR2
Uncharacterized protein.
     
 0.978
IFNAR1
Uncharacterized protein.
     
 0.974
NFKB1
Nuclear factor NF-kappa-B p105 subunit; P105 is the precursor of the p50 subunit of the nuclear factor NF-kappa-B, which binds to the kappa-B consensus sequence 5'- GGRNNYYCC-3', located in the enhancer region of genes involved in immune response and acute phase reactions. The precursor protein itself does not bind to DNA.

RELA
Transcription factor p65; NF-kappa-B is a pleiotropic transcription factor present in almost all cell types and is the endpoint of a series of signal transduction events that are initiated by a vast array of stimuli related to many biological processes such as inflammation, immunity, differentiation, cell growth, tumorigenesis and apoptosis. NF-kappa-B is a homo- or heterodimeric complex formed by the Rel-like domain- containing proteins. The dimers bind at kappa-B sites in the DNA of their target genes and the individual dimers have distinct preferences for different kappa-B sites tha [...]

STAT1
Signal transducer and activator of transcription.
   
 
 0.845
TLR3
Toll-like receptor 3; Belongs to the Toll-like receptor family.
   
  
 0.844
IL6
Interleukin-6; Cytokine with a wide variety of biological functions. It is a potent inducer of the acute phase response (By similarity). Belongs to the IL-6 superfamily.
   
  
 0.844
LITAF
Lipopolysaccharide-induced tumor necrosis factor-alpha factor homolog; Plays a role in endosomal protein trafficking and in targeting proteins for lysosomal degradation. May also contribute to the regulation of gene expression in the nucleus. Binds DNA (in vitro) and may play a synergistic role in the nucleus in regulating the expression of numerous cytokines.
      
 0.843
IL1B
Interleukin-1; Belongs to the IL-1 family.
