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

CST9LCystatin-9-like; Cystatin 9 like; Belongs to the cystatin family. (147 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
CST9
Cystatin-9; May be involved in testis development (By similarity). May play a role in hematopoietic differentiation or inflammation. Has immunomodulatory and antimicrobial functions against Francisella tularensis, a Gram-negative bacteria ; Belongs to the cystatin family.
   
   
0.661
GZF1
GDNF-inducible zinc finger protein 1; Transcriptional repressor that binds the GZF1 responsive element (GRE) (consensus: 5'-TGCGCN[TG][CA]TATA-3'). May be regulating VSX2/HOX10 expression.
   
 
 0.535
CST11
Cystatin-11; Has antibacterial activity against the Gram-negative bacteria E.coli. May play a role in sperm maturation and fertilization. Belongs to the cystatin family.
   
  
0.518
DEFB119
Defensin beta 119.
   
  
 0.513
VSIG1
V-set and immunoglobulin domain containing 1.
      
 0.487
FAM163A
Protein FAM163A; Family with sequence similarity 163 member A; Belongs to the FAM163 family.
      
 0.474
NXT1
NTF2-related export protein 1; Stimulator of protein export for NES-containing proteins. Also plays a role in the nuclear export of U1 snRNA, tRNA, and mRNA. The NXF1-NXT1 heterodimer is involved in the export of HSP70 mRNA in conjunction with ALYREF/THOC4 and THOC5.
      
 0.460
SPSB2
SPRY domain-containing SOCS box protein 2; Substrate recognition component of a SCF-like ECS (Elongin BC-CUL2/5-SOCS-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Negatively regulates nitric oxide (NO) production and limits cellular toxicity in activated macrophages by mediating the ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of NOS2. Acts as a bridge which links NOS2 with the ECS E3 ubiquitin ligase complex components ELOC and CUL5.
      
 0.452
CST8
Cystatin-8; Performs a specialized role during sperm development and maturation.
   
  
0.450
MAGEB18
Melanoma-associated antigen B18; May enhance ubiquitin ligase activity of RING-type zinc finger-containing E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases. Proposed to act through recruitment and/or stabilization of the Ubl-conjugating enzyme (E2) at the E3:substrate complex.
