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

TM4SF20Transmembrane 4 L6 family member 20; Polytopic transmembrane protein that inhibits regulated intramembrane proteolysis (RIP) of CREB3L1, inhibiting its activation and the induction of collagen synthesis. In response to ceramide, which alters TM4SF20 membrane topology, stimulates RIP activation of CREB3L1. Ceramide reverses the direction through which transmembrane helices are translocated into the endoplasmic reticulum membrane during translation of TM4SF20, this mechanism is called 'regulated alternative translocation' (RAT) and regulates the function of the transmembrane protein.

Predicted Functional Partners:
TM4SF18
Transmembrane 4 L six family member 18.
      
 0.607
TM4SF19
Transmembrane 4 L six family member 19; Belongs to the L6 tetraspanin family.
      
 0.528
TM4SF4
Transmembrane 4 L6 family member 4; Regulates the adhesive and proliferative status of intestinal epithelial cells. Can mediate density-dependent cell proliferation.
   
  
0.524
CREB3L1
Processed cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein 3-like protein 1; Transcription factor involved in unfolded protein response (UPR). Binds the DNA consensus sequence 5'-GTGXGCXGC-3'. In the absence of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, inserted into ER membranes, with N-terminal DNA-binding and transcription activation domains oriented toward the cytosolic face of the membrane. In response to ER stress, transported to the Golgi, where it is cleaved in a site-specific manner by resident proteases S1P/MBTPS1 and S2P/MBTPS2. The released N-terminal cytosolic domain is translocated [...]

CD74
HLA class II histocompatibility antigen gamma chain; Plays a critical role in MHC class II antigen processing by stabilizing peptide-free class II alpha/beta heterodimers in a complex soon after their synthesis and directing transport of the complex from the endoplasmic reticulum to the endosomal/lysosomal system where the antigen processing and binding of antigenic peptides to MHC class II takes place. Serves as cell surface receptor for the cytokine MIF.
    
 
 0.491
GPA33
Cell surface A33 antigen; May play a role in cell-cell recognition and signaling.
   
  
 0.452
IGSF23
Immunoglobulin superfamily member 23.
      
 0.449
TEX261
Protein TEX261; Testis expressed 261.
      
 0.445
TTC16
Tetratricopeptide repeat domain 16.
      
 0.443
PLLP
Plasmolipin; Appears to be involved in myelination. Could also participate in ion transport events as addition of plasmolipin to lipid bilayers induces the formation of ion channels, which are voltage-dependent and K(+)-selective (By similarity); Belongs to the MAL family.
