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

OSBPL3Oxysterol-binding protein-related protein 3; Phosphoinositide-binding protein which associates with both cell and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes. Can bind to the ER membrane protein VAPA and recruit VAPA to plasma membrane sites, thus linking these intracellular compartments. The ORP3-VAPA complex stimulates RRAS signaling which in turn attenuates integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) activation at the cell surface. With VAPA, may regulate ER morphology. Has a role in regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, cell polarity and cell adhesion. Binds to phosphoinositides with preference for PI(3,4)P2 [...] (887 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
RRAS
Ras-related protein R-Ras; Regulates the organization of the actin cytoskeleton. With OSPBL3, modulates integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) activity.
   
 
 0.925
VAPA
Vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated protein A; Binds to OSBPL3, which mediates recruitment of VAPA to plasma membrane sites. The ORP3-VAPA complex stimulates RRAS signaling which in turn attenuates integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) activation at the cell surface. With OSBPL3, may regulate ER morphology. May play a role in vesicle trafficking.
   
 
 0.899
VAPB
Vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated protein B/C; Participates in the endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response (UPR) by inducing ERN1/IRE1 activity. Involved in cellular calcium homeostasis regulation.
   
 
 0.873
PLEK2
Pleckstrin-2; May help orchestrate cytoskeletal arrangement. Contribute to lamellipodia formation.
   
  
 0.726
PLEK
Pleckstrin; Major protein kinase C substrate of platelets.
   
  
 0.724
OSBPL9
Oxysterol binding protein like 9; Belongs to the OSBP family.
   
 
0.630
PITPNM3
Membrane-associated phosphatidylinositol transfer protein 3; Catalyzes the transfer of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine between membranes (in vitro) (By similarity). Binds calcium ions; Belongs to the PtdIns transfer protein family. PI transfer class IIA subfamily.
    
 
 0.564
PJVK
Pejvakin; Essential in the activity of auditory pathway neurons.
 
 
  
 0.513
EVA1A
Protein eva-1 homolog A; Acts as a regulator of programmed cell death, mediating both autophagy and apoptosis.
   
  
 0.503
OSBPL7
Oxysterol binding protein like 7; Belongs to the OSBP family.
  
 
 
0.486
