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

COL12A1Collagen alpha-1(XII) chain; Type XII collagen interacts with type I collagen-containing fibrils, the COL1 domain could be associated with the surface of the fibrils, and the COL2 and NC3 domains may be localized in the perifibrillar matrix; Belongs to the fibril-associated collagens with interrupted helices (FACIT) family. (3063 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
COL22A1
Collagen alpha-1(XXII) chain; Acts as a cell adhesion ligand for skin epithelial cells and fibroblasts; Belongs to the fibril-associated collagens with interrupted helices (FACIT) family.
   
0.876
COL5A2
Collagen alpha-2(V) chain; Type V collagen is a member of group I collagen (fibrillar forming collagen). It is a minor connective tissue component of nearly ubiquitous distribution. Type V collagen binds to DNA, heparan sulfate, thrombospondin, heparin, and insulin. Type V collagen is a key determinant in the assembly of tissue-specific matrices (By similarity).
   
 
0.861
COL16A1
Collagen alpha-1(XVI) chain; Involved in mediating cell attachment and inducing integrin- mediated cellular reactions, such as cell spreading and alterations in cell morphology.
   
 
0.839
COL1A1
Collagen alpha-1(I) chain; Type I collagen is a member of group I collagen (fibrillar forming collagen).
   
 
0.836
MMP12
Macrophage metalloelastase; May be involved in tissue injury and remodeling. Has significant elastolytic activity. Can accept large and small amino acids at the P1' site, but has a preference for leucine. Aromatic or hydrophobic residues are preferred at the P1 site, with small hydrophobic residues (preferably alanine) occupying P3; Belongs to the peptidase M10A family.
   
 0.818
PLOD2
Procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 2; Forms hydroxylysine residues in -Xaa-Lys-Gly- sequences in collagens. These hydroxylysines serve as sites of attachment for carbohydrate units and are essential for the stability of the intermolecular collagen cross-links.
   
 0.808
COL7A1
Collagen alpha-1(VII) chain; Stratified squamous epithelial basement membrane protein that forms anchoring fibrils which may contribute to epithelial basement membrane organization and adherence by interacting with extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins such as type IV collagen.
   
 
0.803
COL9A1
Collagen alpha-1(IX) chain; Structural component of hyaline cartilage and vitreous of the eye.
     
0.802
COL1A2
Collagen alpha-2(I) chain; Type I collagen is a member of group I collagen (fibrillar forming collagen); Belongs to the fibrillar collagen family.
   
 
0.793
COL6A2
Collagen alpha-2(VI) chain; Collagen VI acts as a cell-binding protein.
   
0.793
