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

TSPO2Translocator protein 2; Binds cholesterol and mediates its redistribution during erythropoiesis which may play a role in erythrocyte maturation. (170 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
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 [...]

VDAC1
Voltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 1; Forms a channel through the mitochondrial outer membrane and also the plasma membrane. The channel at the outer mitochondrial membrane allows diffusion of small hydrophilic molecules; in the plasma membrane it is involved in cell volume regulation and apoptosis. It adopts an open conformation at low or zero membrane potential and a closed conformation at potentials above 30-40 mV. The open state has a weak anion selectivity whereas the closed state is cation-selective. May participate in the formation of the permeability transition p [...]

GYPB
Glycophorin-B; This protein is a minor sialoglycoprotein in erythrocyte membranes; Belongs to the glycophorin-A family.
   
  
 0.645
KLF1
Krueppel-like factor 1; Transcription regulator of erythrocyte development that probably serves as a general switch factor during erythropoiesis. Is a dual regulator of fetal-to-adult globin switching. Binds to the CACCC box in the beta-globin gene promoter and acts as a preferential activator of this gene. Furthermore, it binds to the BCL11A promoter and activates expression of BCL11A, which in turn represses the HBG1 and HBG2 genes. This dual activity ensures that, in most adults, fetal hemoglobin levels are low. Able to activate CD44 and AQP1 promoters. When sumoylated, acts as a tr [...]

TMCC2
Transmembrane and coiled-coil domains protein 2; May be involved in the regulation of the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) possibly also implicating APOE.
   
  
 0.585
TRIM10
Tripartite motif-containing protein 10; Seems to play an important role in erythropoiesis. Belongs to the TRIM/RBCC family.
   
  
 0.582
GYPE
Glycophorin-E; This protein is a minor sialoglycoprotein in human erythrocyte membranes; Belongs to the glycophorin-A family.
   
  
 0.538
L3HYPDH
Trans-3-hydroxy-L-proline dehydratase; Catalyzes the dehydration of trans-3-hydroxy-L-proline to Delta(1)-pyrroline-2-carboxylate (Pyr2C). May be required to degrade trans-3-hydroxy-L-proline from the diet and originating from the degradation of proteins such as collagen-IV that contain it.
   
    0.536
EPS8L1
Epidermal growth factor receptor kinase substrate 8-like protein 1; Stimulates guanine exchange activity of SOS1. May play a role in membrane ruffling and remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton. Belongs to the EPS8 family.
      
 0.516
RHD
Rh blood group D antigen; Belongs to the ammonium transporter (TC 2.A.49) family. Rh subfamily.
