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

CGAGlycoprotein hormones alpha chain; Belongs to the glycoprotein hormones subunit alpha family. (147 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
FSHB
Follitropin subunit beta; Together with the alpha chain CGA constitutes follitropin, the follicle-stimulating hormone, and provides its biological specificity to the hormone heterodimer. Binds FSHR, a G protein-coupled receptor, on target cells to activate downstream signaling pathways. Follitropin is involved in follicle development and spermatogenesis in reproductive organs.
   
 0.999
TSHB
Thyroid stimulating hormone subunit beta.
   
 0.996
FANCM
Fanconi anemia, complementation group M.
    
 0.965
FSHR
Follicle-stimulating hormone receptor; G protein-coupled receptor for follitropin, the follicle- stimulating hormone. Through cAMP production activates the downstream PI3K-AKT and ERK1/ERK2 signaling pathways.
    
 0.963
LOC107973292
Choriogonadotropin subunit beta 7.
   
 0.962
ENSPTRP00000048563
annotation not available

CK820_G0042350
CGB7 isoform 1.
   
 0.962
ENSPTRP00000054347
annotation not available
   
 0.962
LHB
Lutropin subunit beta; Promotes spermatogenesis and ovulation by stimulating the testes and ovaries to synthesize steroids.
   
 0.950
TSHR
Thyrotropin receptor; Receptor for the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) or thyrotropin. Also acts as a receptor for the heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone (GPHA2:GPHB5) or thyrostimulin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. Plays a central role in controlling thyroid cell metabolism. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. FSH/LSH/TSH subfamily.
