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

FADS6Fatty acid desaturase 6. (368 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ALDH18A1
Delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase; Bifunctional enzyme that converts glutamate to glutamate 5- semialdehyde, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of proline, ornithine and arginine.
    
 0.885
FDX1
Adrenodoxin, mitochondrial; Essential for the synthesis of various steroid hormones. Participates in the reduction of mitochondrial cytochrome P450 for steroidogenesis. Transfers electrons from adrenodoxin reductase to CYP11A1, a cytochrome P450 that catalyzes cholesterol side-chain cleavage. Does not form a ternary complex with adrenodoxin reductase and CYP11A1 but shuttles between the two enzymes to transfer electrons (By similarity). Belongs to the adrenodoxin/putidaredoxin family.
    
 0.868
FDX2
Ferredoxin-2, mitochondrial; Essential for heme A and Fe/S protein biosynthesis.
    
 0.868
TMEM109
Transmembrane protein 109; May mediate cellular response to DNA damage by protecting against ultraviolet C-induced cell death. Can form voltage-gated calcium and potassium channels in vitro (By similarity).
  
 
 0.815
ETFB
Electron transfer flavoprotein subunit beta; Heterodimeric electron transfer flavoprotein that accepts electrons from several mitochondrial dehydrogenases, including acyl-CoA dehydrogenases, glutaryl-CoA and sarcosine dehydrogenase. It transfers the electrons to the main mitochondrial respiratory chain via ETF- ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Probable). Required for normal mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and normal amino acid metabolism. ETFB binds an AMP molecule that probably has a purely structural role.
  
 
 0.814
GATB
Glutamyl-tRNA(Gln) amidotransferase subunit B, mitochondrial; Allows the formation of correctly charged Gln-tRNA(Gln) through the transamidation of misacylated Glu-tRNA(Gln) in the mitochondria. The reaction takes place in the presence of glutamine and ATP through an activated gamma-phospho-Glu-tRNA(Gln). Belongs to the GatB/GatE family. GatB subfamily.
    
 0.810
GMPS
GMP synthase [glutamine-hydrolyzing]; Involved in the de novo synthesis of guanine nucleotides which are not only essential for DNA and RNA synthesis, but also provide GTP, which is involved in a number of cellular processes important for cell division.
     
 0.797
IAH1
Isoamyl acetate-hydrolyzing esterase 1 homolog; Probable lipase; Belongs to the 'GDSL' lipolytic enzyme family. IAH1 subfamily.
    
  0.794
TYMP
Thymidine phosphorylase; May have a role in maintaining the integrity of the blood vessels. Has growth promoting activity on endothelial cells, angiogenic activity in vivo and chemotactic activity on endothelial cells in vitro.
    
  0.792
GLUD1
Glutamate dehydrogenase 1, mitochondrial; Mitochondrial glutamate dehydrogenase that converts L- glutamate into alpha-ketoglutarate. Plays a key role in glutamine anaplerosis by producing alpha-ketoglutarate, an important intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. May be involved in learning and memory reactions by increasing the turnover of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate (By similarity).
