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

MESTMesoderm-specific transcript homolog protein; Mesoderm specific transcript; Belongs to the AB hydrolase superfamily. (335 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
PEG3
Paternally-expressed gene 3 protein; Induces apoptosis in cooperation with SIAH1A. Acts as a mediator between p53/TP53 and BAX in a neuronal death pathway that is activated by DNA damage. Acts synergistically with TRAF2 and inhibits TNF induced apoptosis through activation of NF-kappa-B (By similarity). Possesses a tumor suppressing activity in glioma cells; Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.

COPG2
Coatomer subunit gamma-2; The coatomer is a cytosolic protein complex that binds to dilysine motifs and reversibly associates with Golgi non-clathrin- coated vesicles, which further mediate biosynthetic protein transport from the ER, via the Golgi up to the trans Golgi network. Coatomer complex is required for budding from Golgi membranes, and is essential for the retrograde Golgi-to-ER transport of dilysine-tagged proteins. In mammals, the coatomer can only be recruited by membranes associated to ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs), which are small GTP-binding proteins; the complex also i [...]

GRB10
Growth factor receptor-bound protein 10; Adapter protein which modulates coupling of a number of cell surface receptor kinases with specific signaling pathways. Binds to, and suppress signals from, activated receptors tyrosine kinases, including the insulin (INSR) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF1R) receptors. The inhibitory effect can be achieved by 2 mechanisms: interference with the signaling pathway and increased receptor degradation. Delays and reduces AKT1 phosphorylation in response to insulin stimulation. Blocks association between INSR and IRS1 and IRS2 and prevents insulin [...]
   
  
 0.906
CEP41
Centrosomal protein of 41 kDa; Required during ciliogenesis for tubulin glutamylation in cilium. Probably acts by participating in the transport of TTLL6, a tubulin polyglutamylase, between the basal body and the cilium. Belongs to the CEP41 family.
   
  
 0.877
PLAGL1
Zinc finger protein PLAGL1; Acts as a transcriptional activator. Involved in the transcriptional regulation of type 1 receptor for pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide.
   
  
 0.871
PEG10
Retrotransposon-derived protein PEG10; Prevents apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells through interaction with SIAH1, a mediator of apoptosis. May also have a role in cell growth promotion and hepatoma formation. Inhibits the TGF-beta signaling by interacting with the TGF-beta receptor ALK1. When overexpressed, induces the formation of cellular extension, such as filipodia in association with ALK1. Involved at the immediate early stage of adipocyte differentiation (By similarity). May bind to the 5'- GCCTGTCTTT-3' DNA sequence of the MB1 domain in the myelin basic protein ( [...]
   
  
 0.865
ZIM2
Zinc finger imprinted 2; May be involved in transcriptional regulation; Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.
   
  
 0.821
SNRPN
Small nuclear ribonucleoprotein-associated protein N; May be involved in tissue-specific alternative RNA processing events.
      
 0.804
DLK1
Protein delta homolog 1; May have a role in neuroendocrine differentiation.
   
 
 0.779
ZFP57
Zinc finger protein 57 homolog; Transcription regulator required to maintain maternal and paternal gene imprinting, a process by which gene expression is restricted in a parent of origin-specific manner by epigenetic modification of genomic DNA and chromatin, including DNA methylation. Acts by controlling DNA methylation during the earliest multicellular stages of development at multiple imprinting control regions (ICRs). Acts together with ZNF445, but ZNF445 seems to be the major factor in human early embryonic imprinting maintenance. In contrast, in mice, ZFP57 plays the predominant [...]
