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.

ANGPTL6Angiopoietin-related protein 6; May play a role in the wound healing process. May promote epidermal proliferation, remodeling and regeneration. May promote the chemotactic activity of endothelial cells and induce neovascularization. May counteract high-fat diet-induced obesity and related insulin resistance through increased energy expenditure. (470 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ITGA2B
Integrin alpha-IIb light chain, form 1; Integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 is a receptor for fibronectin, fibrinogen, plasminogen, prothrombin, thrombospondin and vitronectin. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in a wide array of ligands. It recognizes the sequence H-H-L-G-G-G-A-K-Q-A-G-D-V in fibrinogen gamma chain. Following activation integrin alpha-IIb/beta-3 brings about platelet/platelet interaction through binding of soluble fibrinogen. This step leads to rapid platelet aggregation which physically plugs ruptured endothelial cell surface.
      
 0.663
ANGPTL8
Angiopoietin-like protein 8; Hormone that acts as a blood lipid regulator by regulating serum triglyceride levels. May be involved in the metabolic transition between fasting and refeeding: required to direct fatty acids to adipose tissue for storage in the fed state (By similarity). Belongs to the ANGPTL8 family.
      
 0.555
LECT2
Leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin-2; Has a neutrophil chemotactic activity. Also a positive regulator of chondrocyte proliferation. Does not show metalloendopeptidase activity. Belongs to the LECT2/MIM-1 family.
   
  
 0.490
SELENOP
Selenoprotein P; Might be responsible for some of the extracellular antioxidant defense properties of selenium or might be involved in the transport of selenium. May supply selenium to tissues such as brain and testis.
      
 0.482
FGF21
Fibroblast growth factor 21; Stimulates glucose uptake in differentiated adipocytes via the induction of glucose transporter SLC2A1/GLUT1 expression (but not SLC2A4/GLUT4 expression). Activity requires the presence of KLB. Belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family.
      
 0.470
TRIM40
Tripartite motif-containing protein 40; May function as an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase of the NEDD8 conjugation pathway. Promotes neddylation of IKBKG/NEMO, stabilizing NFKBIA, and inhibiting of NF-kappaB nuclear translocation and activity. Belongs to the TRIM/RBCC family.
    
   0.457
AHSG
Alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein chain A; Promotes endocytosis, possesses opsonic properties and influences the mineral phase of bone. Shows affinity for calcium and barium ions; Belongs to the fetuin family.
      
 0.435
TIE1
Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor Tie-1; Transmembrane tyrosine-protein kinase that may modulate TEK/TIE2 activity and contribute to the regulation of angiogenesis.
   
  
 0.430
AGA
N(4)-(beta-N-acetylglucosaminyl)-L-asparaginase; Cleaves the GlcNAc-Asn bond which joins oligosaccharides to the peptide of asparagine-linked glycoproteins.
      
 0.406
LRRC24
Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 24; Leucine rich repeat containing 24.
    
 
 0.403
