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.

DISP2Dispatched RND transporter family member 2. (1401 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
SHH
Sonic hedgehog protein N-product; [Sonic hedgehog protein]: The C-terminal part of the sonic hedgehog protein precursor displays an autoproteolysis and a cholesterol transferase activity (By similarity). Both activities result in the cleavage of the full-length protein into two parts (ShhN and ShhC) followed by the covalent attachment of a cholesterol moiety to the C-terminal of the newly generated ShhN (By similarity). Both activities occur in the reticulum endoplasmic (By similarity). Once cleaved, ShhC is degraded in the endoplasmic reticulum (By similarity).
   
 0.891
DHH
Desert hedgehog protein C-product; Intercellular signal essential for a variety of patterning events during development. May function as a spermatocyte survival factor in the testes. Essential for testes development.
   
 0.797
IHH
Indian hedgehog protein C-product; Intercellular signal essential for a variety of patterning events during development. Binds to the patched (PTC) receptor, which functions in association with smoothened (SMO), to activate the transcription of target genes. Implicated in endochondral ossification: may regulate the balance between growth and ossification of the developing bones. Induces the expression of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHRP) (By similarity).
   
 0.794
SCUBE2
Signal peptide, CUB and EGF-like domain-containing protein 2; Lipid-binding protein required for SHH long-range signaling by binding to the dually lipid-modified SHH (ShhNp) and by promoting ShhNp mobilization, solubilization and release from the cell membrane. Acts by enhancing the proteolytic processing (shedding) of the lipid-modified N- and C- terminal of ShhNp at the cell surface. Synergizes with DISP1 to increase SHH secretion. Probable cell surface coreceptor for VEGFR2 involved in VEGFR2-mediated angiogenesis.
   
 
 0.609
PTCH1
Protein patched homolog 1; Acts as a receptor for sonic hedgehog (SHH), indian hedgehog (IHH) and desert hedgehog (DHH). Associates with the smoothened protein (SMO) to transduce the hedgehog's proteins signal. Seems to have a tumor suppressor function, as inactivation of this protein is probably a necessary, if not sufficient step for tumorigenesis. Belongs to the patched family.
   
  
 0.567
DISP3
Protein dispatched homolog 3; Plays a role in neuronal proliferation and differentiation. Plays a role in the accumulation of cellular cholesterol (By similarity). Involved in intracellular lipid droplet formation. May contribute to cholesterol homeostasis in neuronal cells (By similarity).
   
  
0.554
LIX1L
LIX1-like protein; Limb and CNS expressed 1 like; Belongs to the LIX1 family.
   
  
 0.483
COMTD1
Catechol O-methyltransferase domain-containing protein 1; Putative O-methyltransferase; Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Cation-dependent O-methyltransferase family.
   
  
 0.479
MAP6D1
MAP6 domain-containing protein 1; May have microtubule-stabilizing activity; Belongs to the STOP family.
      
 0.476
PAXBP1
PAX3- and PAX7-binding protein 1; Adapter protein linking the transcription factors PAX3 and PAX7 to the histone methylation machinery and involved in myogenesis. Associates with a histone methyltransferase complex that specifically mediates dimethylation and trimethylation of 'Lys-4' of histone H3. Mediates the recruitment of that complex to the transcription factors PAX3 and PAX7 on chromatin to regulate the expression of genes involved in muscle progenitor cells proliferation including ID3 and CDC20 (By similarity); Belongs to the GCF family.
