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

AACSAcetoacetyl-CoA synthetase; Activates acetoacetate to acetoacetyl-CoA. May be involved in utilizing ketone body for the fatty acid-synthesis during adipose tissue development (By similarity). (672 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ACAT1
Acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, mitochondrial; This is one of the enzymes that catalyzes the last step of the mitochondrial beta-oxidation pathway, an aerobic process breaking down fatty acids into acetyl-CoA. Using free coenzyme A/CoA, catalyzes the thiolytic cleavage of medium- to long-chain 3-oxoacyl-CoAs into acetyl-CoA and a fatty acyl-CoA shortened by two carbon atoms. The activity of the enzyme is reversible and it can also catalyze the condensation of two acetyl-CoA molecules into acetoacetyl-CoA. Thereby, it plays a major role in ketone body metabolism. Belongs to the thiolase-l [...]
  
 
 0.960
ACAT2
Uncharacterized protein; Belongs to the thiolase-like superfamily. Thiolase family.
  
 
 0.948
HMGCS1
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A synthase; This enzyme condenses acetyl-CoA with acetoacetyl-CoA to form HMG-CoA, which is the substrate for HMG-CoA reductase.
   
 
 0.945
HMGCLL1
3-hydroxymethyl-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase like 1.
  
 
 0.943
EHHADH
Enoyl-CoA hydratase and 3-hydroxyacyl CoA dehydrogenase; Belongs to the enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase family.
  
 
 0.940
HMGCS2
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A synthase; This enzyme condenses acetyl-CoA with acetoacetyl-CoA to form HMG-CoA, which is the substrate for HMG-CoA reductase.
   
 
 0.933
BDH2
3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase 2.
  
 
 0.929
OXCT1
Succinyl-CoA:3-ketoacid-coenzyme A transferase; Key enzyme for ketone body catabolism. Transfers the CoA moiety from succinate to acetoacetate. Formation of the enzyme-CoA intermediate proceeds via an unstable anhydride species formed between the carboxylate groups of the enzyme and substrate.
  
 
 0.920
BDH1
3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase 1; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
     
 0.920
ENSMFAP00000029266
TGF_BETA_2 domain-containing protein.
