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.

B4GALNT1Beta-1,4 N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1; Involved in the biosynthesis of gangliosides GM2, GD2 and GA2. (533 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ST8SIA1
Alpha-N-acetylneuraminide alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase; Involved in the production of gangliosides GD3 and GT3 from GM3; gangliosides are a subfamily of complex glycosphinglolipds that contain one or more residues of sialic acid.
     
 0.984
ST3GAL5
Lactosylceramide alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase; Catalyzes the formation of ganglioside GM3 (alpha-N- acetylneuraminyl-2,3-beta-D-galactosyl-1, 4-beta-D-glucosylceramide).
     
 0.962
B3GALT4
Beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase 4; Involved in GM1/GD1B/GA1 ganglioside biosynthesis.
     
 0.955
ST8SIA5
Alpha-2,8-sialyltransferase 8E; May be involved in the synthesis of gangliosides GD1c, GT1a, GQ1b and GT3 from GD1a, GT1b, GM1b and GD3 respectively. Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 29 family.
   
 
 0.945
HEXA
Beta-hexosaminidase subunit alpha; Responsible for the degradation of GM2 gangliosides, and a variety of other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines, in the brain and other tissues. The form B is active against certain oligosaccharides. The form S has no measurable activity; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 20 family.
     
 0.942
SLC33A1
Acetyl-coenzyme A transporter 1; Probable acetyl-CoA transporter necessary for O-acetylation of gangliosides. Negatively regulates BMP signaling.
     
 0.937
HEXB
Beta-hexosaminidase subunit beta chain A; Responsible for the degradation of GM2 gangliosides, and a variety of other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines, in the brain and other tissues; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 20 family.
     
 0.931
GAL3ST1
Galactosylceramide sulfotransferase; Catalyzes the sulfation of membrane glycolipids. Seems to prefer beta-glycosides at the non-reducing termini of sugar chains attached to a lipid moiety. Catalyzes the synthesis of galactosylceramide sulfate (sulfatide), a major lipid component of the myelin sheath and of monogalactosylalkylacylglycerol sulfate (seminolipid), present in spermatocytes (By similarity). Also acts on lactosylceramide, galactosyl 1-alkyl-2-sn-glycerol and galactosyl diacylglycerol (in vitro); Belongs to the galactose-3-O-sulfotransferase family.
     
 0.924
ARSA
Arylsulfatase A component B; Hydrolyzes cerebroside sulfate.
     
 0.922
GLB1
Beta-galactosidase; [Isoform 1]: Cleaves beta-linked terminal galactosyl residues from gangliosides, glycoproteins, and glycosaminoglycans.
