STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
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.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

HCRTR2Orexin receptor type 2; Nonselective, high-affinity receptor for both orexin-A and orexin-B neuropeptides. Triggers an increase in cytoplasmic Ca(2+) levels in response to orexin-A binding; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. (444 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
HCRT
Orexin-A; Neuropeptides that play a significant role in the regulation of food intake and sleep-wakefulness, possibly by coordinating the complex behavioral and physiologic responses of these complementary homeostatic functions. A broader role in the homeostatic regulation of energy metabolism, autonomic function, hormonal balance and the regulation of body fluids, is also suggested. Orexin-A binds to both OX1R and OX2R with a high affinity, whereas orexin-B binds only to OX2R with a similar high affinity.
   
 0.989
HCRTR1
Hypocretin receptor 1; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
  
 
0.904
GRK2
G protein-coupled receptor kinase; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GPRK subfamily.
   
 0.647
HLA-DQB2
Major histocompatibility complex, class II, DQ beta 1.
      
 0.645
TRIB2
Tribbles homolog 2; Interacts with MAPK kinases and regulates activation of MAP kinases. Does not display kinase activity. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family. Tribbles subfamily.
   
 
 0.628
GALC
Galactocerebrosidase; Hydrolyzes the galactose ester bonds of galactosylceramide, galactosylsphingosine, lactosylceramide, and monogalactosyldiglyceride. Enzyme with very low activity responsible for the lysosomal catabolism of galactosylceramide, a major lipid in myelin, kidney and epithelial cells of small intestine and colon (By similarity); Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 59 family.
