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

KRT73Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 73; Has a role in hair formation. Specific component of keratin intermediate filaments in the inner root sheath (IRS) of the hair follicle (Probable). (540 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
KRT72
Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 72; Has a role in hair formation. Specific component of keratin intermediate filaments in the inner root sheath (IRS) of the hair follicle (Probable).
  
 
0.999
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).
  
0.537
KRTAP3-3
Keratin-associated protein 3-3; In the hair cortex, hair keratin intermediate filaments are embedded in an interfilamentous matrix, consisting of hair keratin- associated proteins (KRTAP), which are essential for the formation of a rigid and resistant hair shaft through their extensive disulfide bond cross-linking with abundant cysteine residues of hair keratins. The matrix proteins include the high-sulfur and high-glycine-tyrosine keratins; Belongs to the KRTAP type 3 family.

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.
  
 
0.497
KRT74
Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 74; Has a role in hair formation. Specific component of keratin intermediate filaments in the inner root sheath (IRS) of the hair follicle (Probable).
  
 
0.496
S100A3
Protein S100-A3; Binds both calcium and zinc. May be involved in calcium- dependent cuticle cell differentiation, hair shaft and hair cuticular barrier formation.
   
 
 0.490
KRT83
Keratin, type II cuticular Hb3; Keratin 83; Belongs to the intermediate filament family.
  
 
0.480
KRT81
Keratin, type II cuticular Hb1; Keratin 81.
  
 
0.476
KRT86
Keratin, type II cuticular Hb6.
  
 
0.476
DSC1
Desmocollin-1; Component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell adhesion. May contribute to epidermal cell positioning (stratification) by mediating differential adhesiveness between cells that express different isoforms. Linked to the keratinization of epithelial tissues.
