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

NXPH1Neurexophilin-1; May be signaling molecules that resemble neuropeptides and that act by binding to alpha-neurexins and possibly other receptors. Belongs to the neurexophilin family. (271 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
NRXN1
Neurexin-1; Cell surface protein involved in cell-cell-interactions, exocytosis of secretory granules and regulation of signal transmission. Function is isoform-specific. Alpha-type isoforms have a long N- terminus with six laminin G-like domains and play an important role in synaptic signal transmission. Alpha-type isoforms play a role in the regulation of calcium channel activity and Ca(2+)-triggered neurotransmitter release at synapses and at neuromuscular junctions. They play an important role in Ca(2+)-triggered exocytosis of secretory granules in pituitary gland. They may effect [...]

NRXN2
Neurexin-2; Neuronal cell surface protein that may be involved in cell recognition and cell adhesion. May mediate intracellular signaling.
   
 
 0.827
NRXN3
Neurexin-3; Neuronal cell surface protein that may be involved in cell recognition and cell adhesion. May mediate intracellular signaling.
   
 
 0.671
BRINP2
BMP/retinoic acid-inducible neural-specific protein 2; Inhibits neuronal cell proliferation by negative regulation of the cell cycle transition.
  
  
 0.659
LRRTM1
Leucine-rich repeat transmembrane neuronal protein 1; Exhibits strong synaptogenic activity, restricted to excitatory presynaptic differentiation, acting at both pre- and postsynaptic level; Belongs to the LRRTM family.
   
  
 0.576
CBLN4
Cerebellin-4; Acts as a synaptic organizer in specific subsets of neurons in the brain (By similarity). Essential for the formation and maintenance of inhibitory GABAergic synapses (By similarity). Promotes the development of dendrite-targeting inhibitory GABAergic synapses made by somatostatin-positive interneurons (By similarity). May contribute to the function of ventral medial habenula region of the brain implicated in the regulation of anxiety-related behaviors (By similarity). May play a role in CBLN3 export from the endoplasmic reticulum and secretion (By similarity).
  
  
 0.565
LRRTM3
Leucine-rich repeat transmembrane neuronal protein 3; Exhibits a limited synaptogenic activity in vitro, restricted to excitatory presynaptic differentiation (By similarity). May play a role in the development and maintenance of the vertebrate nervous system; Belongs to the LRRTM family.
   
  
 0.556
BRINP3
BMP/retinoic acid-inducible neural-specific protein 3; Inhibits neuronal cell proliferation by negative regulation of the cell cycle transition. Promotes pituitary gonadotrope cell proliferation, migration and invasion, when overexpressed. May play a role in cell pituitary tumor development. Belongs to the BRINP family.
  
  
 0.552
GRM5
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5; G-protein coupled receptor for glutamate. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of down-stream effectors. Signaling activates a phosphatidylinositol- calcium second messenger system and generates a calcium-activated chloride current. Plays an important role in the regulation of synaptic plasticity and the modulation of the neural network activity.
