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

MAFATranscription factor MafA; Transcription factor involved in transcription regulation during lens development, including that of crystallin and filensin/BFSP1 genes. Binds to CRE-type MARE 5'- TGCTGACGTCAGCA-3' and TRE-type MARE 5'-TGCTGACTCAGCA-3' DNA sequences ; Belongs to the bZIP family. Maf subfamily. (286 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
OTX1
Orthodenticle homeobox 1.
    
 
 0.682
FOS
Proto-oncogene c-Fos; Nuclear phosphoprotein which forms a tight but non-covalently linked complex with the JUN/AP-1 transcription factor. FOS has a critical function in regulating the development of cells destined to form and maintain the skeleton. It is thought to have an important role in signal transduction, cell proliferation and differentiation. In growing cells, may activate phospholipid synthesis (By similarity).
    
 
 0.669
RBP3
Uncharacterized protein.
      
 0.610
ARX
Aristaless related homeobox.
      
 0.609
GRIFIN
Galectin.
   
  
 0.603
PAX6
Paired box protein Pax-6; May be a transcription factor with important functions in eye and nasal development.
   
 
 0.593
BACH2
BTB domain and CNC homolog 2.
   
 
 0.579
FOSL2
Fos-related antigen 2.
    
 
 0.528
SLC2A2
Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 2; Facilitative hexose transporter that mediates the transport of glucose and fructose. Likely mediates the bidirectional transfer of glucose across the plasma membrane of hepatocytes and is responsible for uptake of glucose by the beta cells; may comprise part of the glucose-sensing mechanism of the beta cell. Also able to mediate the transport of dehydroascorbate.
   
  
 0.499
RXRG
Retinoic acid receptor RXR-gamma; Receptor for retinoic acid. Retinoic acid receptors bind as heterodimers to their target response elements in response to their ligands, all-trans or 9-cis retinoic acid, and regulate gene expression in various biological processes. The RAR/RXR heterodimers bind to the retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5'-AGGTCA-3' sites known as DR1-DR5. The high affinity ligand for RXRs is 9-cis retinoic acid (By similarity).
