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

ACE2Processed angiotensin-converting enzyme 2; Carboxypeptidase which converts angiotensin I to angiotensin 1-9, a peptide of unknown function, and angiotensin II to angiotensin 1-7, a vasodilator (By similarity). Also able to hydrolyze apelin-13 and dynorphin-13 with high efficiency. By cleavage of angiotensin II, may be an important regulator of heart function (By similarity). By cleavage of angiotensin II, may also have a protective role in acute lung injury (By similarity). Plays an important role in amino acid transport by acting as binding partner of amino acid transporter SLC6A19 in [...] (802 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
DPP4
DPP4 isoform 1; Belongs to the peptidase S9B family.
     
 0.988
SLC6A19
Sodium-dependent neutral amino acid transporter B(0)AT1; Transporter that mediates resorption of neutral amino acids across the apical membrane of renal and intestinal epithelial cells. This uptake is sodium-dependent and chloride-independent. Requires CLTRN in kidney or ACE2 in intestine for cell surface expression and amino acid transporter activity.
   
 
 0.988
SLC6A20
Transporter; Belongs to the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter (SNF) (TC 2.A.22) family.
   
 
 0.977
AGT
AGT isoform 1; Belongs to the serpin family.
    
 0.976
PRCP
Lysosomal Pro-X carboxypeptidase; Cleaves C-terminal amino acids linked to proline in peptides such as angiotensin II, III and des-Arg9-bradykinin. This cleavage occurs at acidic pH, but enzymatic activity is retained with some substrates at neutral pH (By similarity); Belongs to the peptidase S28 family.
     
 0.962
MEP1A
Meprin A subunit.
   
 
 0.946
MME
Neprilysin; Thermolysin-like specificity, but is almost confined on acting on polypeptides of up to 30 amino acids. Biologically important in the destruction of opioid peptides such as Met- and Leu-enkephalins by cleavage of a Gly-Phe bond. Able to cleave angiotensin-1, angiotensin-2 and angiotensin 1-9. Involved in the degradation of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF). Displays UV-inducible elastase activity toward skin preelastic and elastic fibers. Belongs to the peptidase M13 family.
     
 0.942
XPNPEP2
XPNPEP2 isoform 2; Belongs to the peptidase M24B family.
   
 
 0.938
MEP1B
Meprin A subunit.
   
 
 0.937
IL2
Interleukin-2; Produced by T-cells in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation, this protein is required for T-cell proliferation and other activities crucial to regulation of the immune response. Belongs to the IL-2 family.
    
 
 0.934
