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:
some 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

REG4Regenerating islet-derived protein 4; Calcium-independent lectin displaying mannose-binding specificity and able to maintain carbohydrate recognition activity in an acidic environment. May be involved in inflammatory and metaplastic responses of the gastrointestinal epithelium; C-type lectin domain containing (158 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ADAM30
Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 30; Plays a role in lysosomal amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing by cleaving and activating CTSD/cathepsin D which leads to APP degradation; ADAM metallopeptidase domain containing
      
 0.773
SPINK8
Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 8; Probable serine protease inhibitor; Serine peptidase inhibitors, Kazal type
      
 0.706
IGSF23
Immunoglobulin superfamily member 23; Immunoglobulin like domain containing
      
 0.690
CLDN18
Claudin-18; Plays a major role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium- independent cell-adhesion activity; Belongs to the claudin family
   
  
 0.670
PNOC
Prepronociceptin; Nociceptin: Ligand of the opioid receptor-like receptor OPRL1. It may act as a transmitter in the brain by modulating nociceptive and locomotor behavior. May be involved in neuronal differentiation and development; Belongs to the opioid neuropeptide precursor family
      
 0.662
FFAR1
Free fatty acid receptor 1; G-protein coupled receptor for medium and long chain saturated and unsaturated fatty acids that plays an important role in glucose homeostasis. Fatty acid binding increases glucose- stimulated insulin secretion, and may also enhance the secretion of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). May also play a role in bone homeostasis; receptor signaling activates pathways that inhibit osteoclast differentiation (By similarity). Ligand binding leads to a conformation change that triggers signaling via G-proteins that activate phospholipase C, leading to an increase of th [...]
      
 0.654
PLXNA4
Plexin-A4; Coreceptor for SEMA3A. Necessary for signaling by class 3 semaphorins and subsequent remodeling of the cytoskeleton. Plays a role in axon guidance in the developing nervous system. Class 3 semaphorins bind to a complex composed of a neuropilin and a plexin. The plexin modulates the affinity of the complex for specific semaphorins, and its cytoplasmic domain is required for the activation of down-stream signaling events in the cytoplasm (By similarity)
      
 0.644
EPS8L3
Epidermal growth factor receptor kinase substrate 8-like protein 3; EPS8 like 3
   
  
 0.626
OLFM4
Olfactomedin-4; May promote proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells by favoring the transition from the S to G2/M phase. In myeloid leukemic cell lines, inhibits cell growth and induces cell differentiation and apoptosis. May play a role in the inhibition of EIF4EBP1 phosphorylation/deactivation. Facilitates cell adhesion, most probably through interaction with cell surface lectins and cadherin

SPINK4
Serine peptidase inhibitor, Kazal type 4
   
  
 0.613
