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

TMEM140Transmembrane protein 140. (185 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
MVB12A
Multivesicular body subunit 12A; Component of the ESCRT-I complex, a regulator of vesicular trafficking process. Required for the sorting of endocytic ubiquitinated cargos into multivesicular bodies. May be involved in the ligand-mediated internalization and down-regulation of EGF receptor.
   
  
 0.517
TMEM168
Transmembrane protein 168; Belongs to the TMEM168 family.
      
 0.453
SH3RF3
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase SH3RF3; Has E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity.
      
 0.446
RTP4
Receptor-transporting protein 4; Probable chaperone protein which facilitates trafficking and functional cell surface expression of some G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). Promotes functional expression of the bitter taste receptor TAS2R16. Also promotes functional expression of the opioid receptor heterodimer OPRD1-OPRM1 (By similarity).
   
  
 0.438
CNIH4
Protein cornichon homolog 4; Involved in G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) trafficking from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell surface; it promotes the exit of GPCRs from the early secretory pathway, likely through interaction with the COPII machinery. Belongs to the cornichon family.
   
  
 0.437
BST2
Bone marrow stromal antigen 2; IFN-induced antiviral host restriction factor which efficiently blocks the release of diverse mammalian enveloped viruses by directly tethering nascent virions to the membranes of infected cells. Acts as a direct physical tether, holding virions to the cell membrane and linking virions to each other. The tethered virions can be internalized by endocytosis and subsequently degraded or they can remain on the cell surface. In either case, their spread as cell-free virions is restricted. Its target viruses belong to diverse families, including retroviridae: h [...]
   
  
 0.420
KCNK7
Potassium channel subfamily K member 7; Probable potassium channel subunit. No channel activity observed in vitro as protein remains in the endoplasmic reticulum. May need to associate with an as yet unknown partner in order to reach the plasma membrane; Belongs to the two pore domain potassium channel (TC 1.A.1.8) family.
      
 0.404
TRANK1
Tetratricopeptide repeat and ankyrin repeat containing 1.
