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

Score
TMPRSS6TMPRSS6 isoform 2; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. (713 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
HJV
HFE2 isoform 3.
    
 
 0.892
HAMP
Hepcidin; Seems to act as a signaling molecule involved in the maintenance of iron homeostasis. Seems to be required in conjunction with HFE to regulate both intestinal iron absorption and iron storage in macrophages (By similarity); Belongs to the hepcidin family.
   
  
 0.863
NEO1
NEO1 isoform 1.
      
 0.750
TFRC
Transferrin receptor protein 1; Cellular uptake of iron occurs via receptor-mediated endocytosis of ligand-occupied transferrin receptor into specialized endosomes. Endosomal acidification leads to iron release. The apotransferrin-receptor complex is then recycled to the cell surface with a return to neutral pH and the concomitant loss of affinity of apotransferrin for its receptor. Transferrin receptor is necessary for development of erythrocytes and the nervous system (By similarity). Positively regulates T and B cell proliferation through iron uptake (By similarity).
   
  
 0.743
TFR2
TFR2 isoform 2.
   
  
 0.720
HFE
Homeostatic iron regulator; Belongs to the MHC class I family.
      
 0.690
BMP6
BMP6 isoform 1.
      
 0.682
DCN
Decorin; May affect the rate of fibrils formation.
    
 0.647
SLC11A2
SLC11A2 isoform 12.
      
 0.629
SLC25A28
SLC25A28 isoform 2; Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier (TC 2.A.29) family.
      
 0.580
