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

ADAM7Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 7; May play an important role in male reproduction including sperm maturation and gonadotrope function. This is a non catalytic metalloprotease-like protein (By similarity). (754 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
FN1
Fibronectin; Fibronectins bind cell surfaces and various compounds including collagen, fibrin, heparin, DNA, and actin. Fibronectins are involved in cell adhesion, cell motility, opsonization, wound healing, and maintenance of cell shape. Involved in osteoblast compaction through the fibronectin fibrillogenesis cell-mediated matrix assembly process, essential for osteoblast mineralization. Participates in the regulation of type I collagen deposition by osteoblasts.
      
 0.559
LCN9
Epididymal-specific lipocalin-9; Lipocalin 9.
   
  
 0.540
ZNF511
Zinc finger protein 511; May be involved in transcriptional regulation; Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.
 
    
 0.496
DCXR
L-xylulose reductase; Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of several pentoses, tetroses, trioses, alpha-dicarbonyl compounds and L-xylulose. Participates in the uronate cycle of glucose metabolism. May play a role in the water absorption and cellular osmoregulation in the proximal renal tubules by producing xylitol, an osmolyte, thereby preventing osmolytic stress from occurring in the renal tubules.
      
 0.487
TEDDM1
Transmembrane epididymal protein 1.
   
  
 0.472
GPX5
Epididymal secretory glutathione peroxidase; Protects cells and enzymes from oxidative damage, by catalyzing the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxides and organic hydroperoxide, by glutathione. May constitute a glutathione peroxidase-like protective system against peroxide damage in sperm membrane lipids.
   
  
 0.456
LCN8
Epididymal-specific lipocalin-8; May play a role in male fertility. May act as a retinoid carrier protein within the epididymis.
   
  
 0.443
CRISP1
Cysteine-rich secretory protein 1; May have a role in sperm-egg fusion and maturation; Belongs to the CRISP family.
