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

KELKell blood group glycoprotein; Zinc endopeptidase with endothelin-3-converting enzyme activity. Cleaves EDN1, EDN2 and EDN3, with a marked preference for EDN3. (732 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
XK
Membrane transport protein XK; May be involved in sodium-dependent transport of neutral amino acids or oligopeptides.
   
 
 0.990
EDN3
Endothelin-3; Endothelins are endothelium-derived vasoconstrictor peptides.
     
 0.951
XKR3
XK-related protein 3; XK related 3; Belongs to the XK family.
   
  
 0.889
XKRX
XK-related protein 2; XK related X-linked.
      
 0.865
GYPB
Glycophorin-B; This protein is a minor sialoglycoprotein in erythrocyte membranes; Belongs to the glycophorin-A family.
   
  
 0.856
GYPA
Glycophorin-A; Glycophorin A is the major intrinsic membrane protein of the erythrocyte. The N-terminal glycosylated segment, which lies outside the erythrocyte membrane, has MN blood group receptors. Appears to be important for the function of SLC4A1 and is required for high activity of SLC4A1. May be involved in translocation of SLC4A1 to the plasma membrane. Is a receptor for influenza virus. Is a receptor for Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte-binding antigen 175 (EBA-175); binding of EBA-175 is dependent on sialic acid residues of the O-linked glycans. Appears to be a receptor for [...]

RHCE
Blood group Rh(CE) polypeptide; May be part of an oligomeric complex which is likely to have a transport or channel function in the erythrocyte membrane; Belongs to the ammonium transporter (TC 2.A.49) family. Rh subfamily.
   
  
 0.785
RHD
Rh blood group D antigen; Belongs to the ammonium transporter (TC 2.A.49) family. Rh subfamily.
   
  
 0.785
PIP
Prolactin induced protein; Belongs to the PIP family.
      
 0.775
RHAG
Ammonium transporter Rh type A; Associated with rhesus blood group antigen expression. May be part of an oligomeric complex which is likely to have a transport or channel function in the erythrocyte membrane. Involved in ammonia transport across the erythrocyte membrane. Seems to act in monovalent cation transport. Belongs to the ammonium transporter (TC 2.A.49) family. Rh subfamily.
