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

VLDLRVery low density lipoprotein receptor. (879 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
RELN
Reelin.
    
 0.960
APOE
Uncharacterized protein.
    
 0.893
DAB1
DAB adaptor protein 1.
    
 0.879
PCSK9
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9.
    
 0.870
LIPC
Lipase C, hepatic type.
    
 0.775
LPL
Lipoprotein lipase; Key enzyme in triglyceride metabolism. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of triglycerides from circulating chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), and thereby plays an important role in lipid clearance from the blood stream, lipid utilization and storage. Mediates margination of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein particles in capillaries. Recruited to its site of action on the luminal surface of vascular endothelium by binding to GPIHBP1 and cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans.
    
 0.724
LDLRAP1
Low density lipoprotein receptor adaptor protein 1.
    
 0.724
G3VJ24_SARHA
Vitellogenin domain-containing protein.
    
 0.680
SH3KBP1
SH3 domain containing kinase binding protein 1.
     
 0.634
CETP
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein; Involved in the transfer of neutral lipids, including cholesteryl ester and triglyceride, among lipoprotein particles. Allows the net movement of cholesteryl ester from high density lipoproteins/HDL to triglyceride-rich very low density lipoproteins/VLDL, and the equimolar transport of triglyceride from VLDL to HDL; Belongs to the BPI/LBP/Plunc superfamily. BPI/LBP family.
