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

KRT71
Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 71; Plays a central role in hair formation. Essential component of keratin intermediate filaments in the inner root sheath (IRS) of the hair follicle.
  
 
0.532
KRT17
Keratin, type I cytoskeletal 17; Type I keratin involved in the formation and maintenance of various skin appendages, specifically in determining shape and orientation of hair (By similarity). Required for the correct growth of hair follicles, in particular for the persistence of the anagen (growth) state (By similarity). Modulates the function of TNF-alpha in the specific context of hair cycling. Regulates protein synthesis and epithelial cell growth through binding to the adapter protein SFN and by stimulating Akt/mTOR pathway (By similarity). Involved in tissue repair. May be a mark [...]

KRT2
Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 2 epidermal; Probably contributes to terminal cornification. Associated with keratinocyte activation, proliferation and keratinization. Plays a role in the establishment of the epidermal barrier on plantar skin (By similarity).
  
 
0.497
KRT82
Keratin, type II cuticular Hb2; Keratin 82; Belongs to the intermediate filament family.
  
 
0.488

KRT83
Keratin, type II cuticular Hb3; Keratin 83; Belongs to the intermediate filament family.
  
 
0.481
KRT1
Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 1; May regulate the activity of kinases such as PKC and SRC via binding to integrin beta-1 (ITB1) and the receptor of activated protein C kinase 1 (RACK1). In complex with C1QBP is a high affinity receptor for kininogen-1/HMWK.
