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.

RAET1ERetinoic acid early transcript 1E; Binds and activates the KLRK1/NKG2D receptor, mediating natural killer cell cytotoxicity; Belongs to the MHC class I family. (263 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
KLRK1
NKG2-D type II integral membrane protein; Functions as an activating and costimulatory receptor involved in immunosurveillance upon binding to various cellular stress- inducible ligands displayed at the surface of autologous tumor cells and virus-infected cells. Provides both stimulatory and costimulatory innate immune responses on activated killer (NK) cells, leading to cytotoxic activity. Acts as a costimulatory receptor for T-cell receptor (TCR) in CD8(+) T-cell-mediated adaptive immune responses by amplifying T-cell activation. Stimulates perforin-mediated elimination of ligand-exp [...]

RAET1G
UL-16 binding protein 5; [Isoform 1]: Binds and activates the KLRK1/NKG2D receptor, mediating natural killer cell cytotoxicity. [Isoform 2]: Stimulates natural killer cells to secrete IFNG. Belongs to the MHC class I family.
  
 
0.932
RAET1L
UL16-binding protein 6; Binds and activates the KLRK1/NKG2D receptor, mediating natural killer cell cytotoxicity; Belongs to the MHC class I family.
  
  
0.926
HCST
Hematopoietic cell signal transducer; Transmembrane adapter protein which associates with KLRK1 to form an activation receptor KLRK1-HCST in lymphoid and myeloid cells; this receptor plays a major role in triggering cytotoxicity against target cells expressing cell surface ligands such as MHC class I chain- related MICA and MICB, and UL16-binding proteins (ULBPs); these ligands are up-regulated by stress conditions and pathological state such as viral infection and tumor transformation. Functions as docking site for PI3-kinase PIK3R1 and GRB2. Interaction of ULBPs with KLRK1-HCST trigg [...]
     
 0.831
RYK
Tyrosine-protein kinase RYK; May be a coreceptor along with FZD8 of Wnt proteins, such as WNT1, WNT3, WNT3A and WNT5A. Involved in neuron differentiation, axon guidance, corpus callosum establishment and neurite outgrowth. In response to WNT3 stimulation, receptor C-terminal cleavage occurs in its transmembrane region and allows the C-terminal intracellular product to translocate from the cytoplasm to the nucleus where it plays a crucial role in neuronal development; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family.
    
   0.828
NCR3LG1
Natural cytotoxicity triggering receptor 3 ligand 1; Triggers NCR3-dependent natural killer cell activation.
    
 
 0.717
IFNGR1
Interferon gamma receptor 1; Associates with IFNGR2 to form a receptor for the cytokine interferon gamma (IFNG). Ligand binding stimulates activation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway. Plays an essential role in the IFN-gamma pathway that is required for the cellular response to infectious agents.
  
 
 0.650
ULBP2
UL16-binding protein 2; Binds and activates the KLRK1/NKG2D receptor, mediating natural killer cell cytotoxicity.
  
 
0.604
TNFSF9
Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 9; Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF9. Induces the proliferation of activated peripheral blood T-cells. May have a role in activation- induced cell death (AICD). May play a role in cognate interactions between T-cells and B-cells/macrophages; Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family.
   
 
 0.544
NECTIN2
Nectin-2; Modulator of T-cell signaling. Can be either a costimulator of T-cell function, or a coinhibitor, depending on the receptor it binds to. Upon binding to CD226, stimulates T-cell proliferation and cytokine production, including that of IL2, IL5, IL10, IL13, and IFNG. Upon interaction with PVRIG, inhibits T-cell proliferation. These interactions are competitive. Probable cell adhesion protein ; Belongs to the nectin family.
