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.

DEGS1Delta 4-desaturase, sphingolipid 1. (323 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
CERS2
Ceramide synthase 2.
   
 0.955
CERS6
Ceramide synthase 6.
   
 0.952
KDSR
3-ketodihydrosphingosine reductase; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
   
 
 0.947
SMPD2
Sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 2.
     
 0.947
ASAH1
Acid ceramidase subunit alpha; Lysosomal ceramidase that hydrolyzes sphingolipid ceramides into sphingosine and free fatty acids at acidic pH (By similarity). Ceramides, sphingosine, and its phosphorylated form sphingosine-1- phosphate are bioactive lipids that mediate cellular signaling pathways regulating several biological processes including cell proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation (By similarity). Has a higher catalytic efficiency towards C12-ceramides versus other ceramides (By similarity). Also catalyzes the reverse reaction allowing the synthesis of ceramides from fatt [...]
