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:
some 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

IGJJoining chain of multimeric iga and igm; Immunoglobulin J chain; Serves to link two monomer units of either IgM or IgA. In the case of IgM, the J chain-joined dimer is a nucleating unit for the IgM pentamer, and in the case of IgA it induces larger polymers. It also help to bind these immunoglobulins to secretory component (159 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
PIGR
Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor; This receptor binds polymeric IgA and IgM at the basolateral surface of epithelial cells. The complex is then transported across the cell to be secreted at the apical surface. During this process a cleavage occurs that separates the extracellular (known as the secretory component) from the transmembrane segment; V-set domain containing

UTP3
U3 small nucleolar RNA-associated protein 3; Something about silencing protein 10; Essential for gene silencing: has a role in the structure of silenced chromatin. Plays a role in the developing brain (By similarity); Belongs to the SAS10 family
      
 0.920
CD79A
B-cell antigen receptor complex-associated protein alpha chain; Required in cooperation with CD79B for initiation of the signal transduction cascade activated by binding of antigen to the B-cell antigen receptor complex (BCR) which leads to internalization of the complex, trafficking to late endosomes and antigen presentation. Also required for BCR surface expression and for efficient differentiation of pro- and pre-B-cells. Stimulates SYK autophosphorylation and activation. Binds to BLNK, bringing BLNK into proximity with SYK and allowing SYK to phosphorylate BLNK. Also interacts with [...]

PIGA
Phosphatidylinositol N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase subunit A; Necessary for the synthesis of N-acetylglucosaminyl- phosphatidylinositol, the very early intermediate in GPI-anchor biosynthesis; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase group 1 family. Glycosyltransferase 4 subfamily

IGLL1
Immunoglobulin lambda-like polypeptide 1; Critical for B-cell development; C1-set domain containing
   
 
 0.886
TNFRSF17
Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17; Receptor for TNFSF13B/BLyS/BAFF and TNFSF13/APRIL. Promotes B-cell survival and plays a role in the regulation of humoral immunity. Activates NF-kappa-B and JNK; CD molecules
   
  
 0.873
MZB1
Marginal zone B- and B1-cell-specific protein; Associates with immunoglobulin M (IgM) heavy and light chains and promotes IgM assembly and secretion. May exert its effect by acting as a molecular chaperone or as an oxidoreductase as it displays a low level of oxidoreductase activity (By similarity). Isoform 2 may be involved in regulation of apoptosis. Helps to diversify peripheral B-cell functions by regulating Ca(2+) stores, antibody secretion and integrin activation

IGLL5
Immunoglobulin lambda like polypeptide 5; C1-set domain containing

IGHV4-38-2
Immunoglobulin heavy variable 4-38-2-like; V region of the variable domain of immunoglobulin heavy chains that participates in the antigen recognition . Immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, are membrane-bound or secreted glycoproteins produced by B lymphocytes. In the recognition phase of humoral immunity, the membrane-bound immunoglobulins serve as receptors which, upon binding of a specific antigen, trigger the clonal expansion and differentiation of B lymphocytes into immunoglobulins- secreting plasma cells. Secreted immunoglobulins mediate the effector phase of humoral immuni [...]

ERP44
Endoplasmic reticulum resident protein 44; Mediates thiol-dependent retention in the early secretory pathway, forming mixed disulfides with substrate proteins through its conserved CRFS motif. Inhibits the calcium channel activity of ITPR1. May have a role in the control of oxidative protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum. Required to retain ERO1A and ERO1B in the endoplasmic reticulum
