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

SPINK14Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 14; May be a serine protease inhibitor. (97 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
SPINK9
Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 9; Serine protease inhibitor which specifically inhibits KLK5. May contribute to the regulation of the desquamation process in skin by inhibiting KLK5.
      
 0.729
OR1E1
Olfactory receptor 1E1; Odorant receptor; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
      
 0.648
SPINK13
Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 13; May be a serine protease inhibitor (By similarity). Essential for sperm maturation and fertility. Inhibits sperm acrosome reaction, protecting sperm from premature reaction (By similarity).
      
 0.607
FXYD4
FXYD domain containing ion transport regulator 4.
   
  
 0.599
SPINK6
Serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 6; Serine protease inhibitor selective for kallikreins. Efficiently inhibits KLK4, KLK5, KLK6, KLK7, KLK12, KLK13 and KLK14. Doesn't inhibit KLK8.
      
 0.599
PILRA
Paired immunoglobulin-like type 2 receptor alpha; Paired receptors consist of highly related activating and inhibitory receptors and are widely involved in the regulation of the immune system. PILRA is thought to act as a cellular signaling inhibitory receptor by recruiting cytoplasmic phosphatases like PTPN6/SHP-1 and PTPN11/SHP-2 via their SH2 domains that block signal transduction through dephosphorylation of signaling molecules. Receptor for PIANP.
      
 0.541
SPATA18
Mitochondria-eating protein; Key regulator of mitochondrial quality that mediates the repairing or degradation of unhealthy mitochondria in response to mitochondrial damage. Mediator of mitochondrial protein catabolic process (also named MALM) by mediating the degradation of damaged proteins inside mitochondria by promoting the accumulation in the mitochondrial matrix of hydrolases that are characteristic of the lysosomal lumen. Also involved in mitochondrion degradation of damaged mitochondria by promoting the formation of vacuole-like structures (named MIV), which engulf and degrade [...]

NDUFA4L2
NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] 1 alpha subcomplex subunit 4-like 2; NDUFA4 mitochondrial complex associated like 2.
      
 0.532
DSTYK
Dual serine/threonine and tyrosine protein kinase; Acts as a positive regulator of ERK phosphorylation downstream of fibroblast growth factor-receptor activation. Involved in the regulation of both caspase-dependent apoptosis and caspase-independent cell death. In the skin, it plays a predominant role in suppressing caspase-dependent apoptosis in response to UV stress in a range of dermal cell types.
      
 0.524
UNC45B
Protein unc-45 homolog B; Acts as a co-chaperone for HSP90 and is required for proper folding of the myosin motor domain. Plays a role in sarcomere formation during muscle cell development. Is necessary for normal early lens development.
