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.

OGNMimecan; Induces bone formation in conjunction with TGF-beta-1 or TGF- beta-2. (298 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
COL14A1
Collagen alpha-1(XIV) chain; Plays an adhesive role by integrating collagen bundles. It is probably associated with the surface of interstitial collagen fibrils via COL1. The COL2 domain may then serve as a rigid arm which sticks out from the fibril and protrudes the large N-terminal globular domain into the extracellular space, where it might interact with other matrix molecules or cell surface receptors (By similarity).
   
 
 0.920
OMD
Osteomodulin; May be implicated in biomineralization processes. Has a function in binding of osteoblasts via the alpha(V)beta(3)-integrin (By similarity).
   
 
0.877
CNPY3
Protein canopy homolog 3; Toll-like receptor (TLR)-specific co-chaperone for HSP90B1. Required for proper TLR folding, except that of TLR3, and hence controls TLR exit from the endoplasmic reticulum. Consequently, required for both innate and adaptive immune responses (By similarity). Belongs to the canopy family.
    
   0.832
LUM
Lumican; Belongs to the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family. SLRP class II subfamily.
   
 
0.814
DCN
Decorin; May affect the rate of fibrils formation.
   
  
0.809
ASPN
Asporin; Negatively regulates periodontal ligament (PDL) differentiation and mineralization to ensure that the PDL is not ossified and to maintain homeostasis of the tooth-supporting system. Inhibits BMP2-induced cytodifferentiation of PDL cells by preventing its binding to BMPR1B/BMP type-1B receptor, resulting in inhibition of BMP-dependent activation of SMAD proteins (By similarity). Critical regulator of TGF-beta in articular cartilage and plays an essential role in cartilage homeostasis and osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis. Negatively regulates chondrogenesis in the articular cart [...]

KERA
Keratocan; May be important in developing and maintaining corneal transparency and for the structure of the stromal matrix.
   
 
0.753
PRELP
Prolargin; May anchor basement membranes to the underlying connective tissue.
 
 
 
0.752
FMOD
Fibromodulin; Affects the rate of fibrils formation. May have a primary role in collagen fibrillogenesis (By similarity); Belongs to the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family. SLRP class II subfamily.
   
 
0.739
ACAN
Aggrecan core protein 2; This proteoglycan is a major component of extracellular matrix of cartilagenous tissues. A major function of this protein is to resist compression in cartilage. It binds avidly to hyaluronic acid via an N-terminal globular region.
