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

AREL1Apoptosis-resistant E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1; E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. Inhibits apoptosis by ubiquitinating and targeting for degradation a number of proapoptotic proteins including DIABLO/SMAC, HTRA2 and SEPT4/ARTS which are released from the mitochondrion into the cytosol following apoptotic stimulation. (823 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
UBE2D1
Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 D1; Accepts ubiquitin from the E1 complex and catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins. In vitro catalyzes 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitination. Mediates the selective degradation of short-lived and abnormal proteins. Functions in the E6/E6-AP-induced ubiquitination of p53/TP53. Mediates ubiquitination of PEX5 and auto-ubiquitination of STUB1, TRAF6 and TRIM63/MURF1. Ubiquitinates STUB1-associated HSP90AB1 in vitro. Lacks inherent specificity for any particular lysine residue of ubiquitin. Essential for viral activation of IRF3. Mediates polyubi [...]

UBE2L3
Ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2 L3.
    
 
 0.752
UBC
Polyubiquitin-C; [Ubiquitin]: Exists either covalently attached to another protein, or free (unanchored). When covalently bound, it is conjugated to target proteins via an isopeptide bond either as a monomer (monoubiquitin), a polymer linked via different Lys residues of the ubiquitin (polyubiquitin chains) or a linear polymer linked via the initiator Met of the ubiquitin (linear polyubiquitin chains). Polyubiquitin chains, when attached to a target protein, have different functions depending on the Lys residue of the ubiquitin that is linked: Lys-6-linked may be involved in DNA repair [...]

VRTN
Vertnin; Vertebrae development associated; Belongs to the vertnin family.
      
 0.621
PROX2
Prospero homeobox protein 2; Transcription regulator. Does not seem to be essential for embryonic development and postnatal survival (By similarity). Belongs to the Prospero homeodomain family.
      
 0.598
MTX2
Metaxin-2; Involved in transport of proteins into the mitochondrion.
    
 
 0.583
MTX1
Metaxin-1; Involved in transport of proteins into the mitochondrion. Essential for embryonic development (By similarity).
   
 
 0.575
YLPM1
YLP motif-containing protein 1; Plays a role in the reduction of telomerase activity during differentiation of embryonic stem cells by binding to the core promoter of TERT and controlling its down-regulation.
   
  
 0.563
HTRA2
Serine protease HTRA2, mitochondrial; Serine protease that shows proteolytic activity against a non-specific substrate beta-casein. Promotes or induces cell death either by direct binding to and inhibition of BIRC proteins (also called inhibitor of apoptosis proteins, IAPs), leading to an increase in caspase activity, or by a BIRC inhibition-independent, caspase- independent and serine protease activity-dependent mechanism. Cleaves THAP5 and promotes its degradation during apoptosis. Isoform 2 seems to be proteolytically inactive; Belongs to the peptidase S1C family.

DIP2B
Disco interacting protein 2 homolog B.
