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

Score
FAT2Protocadherin Fat 2; Plays a role in the migration of epidermal cells. May modulate the extracellular space surronding parallel fibers of cerebellar during development (By similarity); Cadherin related (4349 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
GABRA6
Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit alpha-6; GABA, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the vertebrate brain, mediates neuronal inhibition by binding to the GABA/benzodiazepine receptor and opening an integral chloride channel; Gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunits
   
  
 0.801
SLC36A1
Proton-coupled amino acid transporter 1; Neutral amino acid/proton symporter. Has a pH-dependent electrogenic transport activity for small amino acids such as glycine, alanine and proline. Besides small apolar L-amino acids, it also recognize their D-enantiomers and selected amino acid derivatives such as gamma-aminobutyric acid (By similarity); Solute carriers
   
  
 0.782
FJX1
Four-jointed box protein 1; Acts as an inhibitor of dendrite extension and branching; Belongs to the FJX1/FJ family
    
 
 0.715
HEPHL1
Hephaestin-like protein 1; May function as a ferroxidase and may be involved in copper transport and homeostasis
      
 0.693
ESPNL
Espin-like protein; Binds to but does not cross-link actin. Required for the formation and maintenance of inner ear hair cell stereocilia and staircase formation. Essential for normal hearing; Ankyrin repeat domain containing
    
 
 0.692
PLD5
Inactive phospholipase D5; Phospholipase D family member 5; Belongs to the phospholipase D family
      
 0.687
GLRB
Glycine receptor subunit beta; Glycine receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels. GLRB does not form ligand-gated ion channels by itself, but is part of heteromeric ligand-gated chloride channels. Channel opening is triggered by extracellular glycine. Heteropentameric channels composed of GLRB and GLRA1 are activated by lower glycine levels than homopentameric GLRA1. Plays an important role in the down-regulation of neuronal excitability. Contributes to the generation of inhibitory postsynaptic currents
   
  
 0.681
PCP2
Purkinje cell protein 2 homolog; May function as a cell-type specific modulator for G protein-mediated cell signaling
   
  
 0.673
RCE1
Ras converting caax endopeptidase 1; CAAX prenyl protease 2; Proteolytically removes the C-terminal three residues of farnesylated and geranylated proteins. Seems to be able to process K-Ras, N-Ras, H-Ras, RAP1B and G-gamma-1
      
 0.667
KCNS1
Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily S member 1; Potassium channel subunit that does not form functional channels by itself. Can form functional heterotetrameric channels with KCNB1 and KCNB2; modulates the delayed rectifier voltage- gated potassium channel activation and deactivation rates of KCNB1 and KCNB2
