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

VCAM1Vascular cell adhesion protein 1; Important in cell-cell recognition. Appears to function in leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion. Interacts with integrin alpha- 4/beta-1 (ITGA4/ITGB1) on leukocytes, and mediates both adhesion and signal transduction. The VCAM1/ITGA4/ITGB1 interaction may play a pathophysiologic role both in immune responses and in leukocyte emigration to sites of inflammation (By similarity). (823 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ITGB1
Integrin beta; Belongs to the integrin beta chain family.
   
 0.973
ITGA9
Integrin subunit alpha 9; Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family.
   
 0.952
SELE
E-selectin; Cell-surface glycoprotein having a role in immunoadhesion. Mediates in the adhesion of blood neutrophils in cytokine-activated endothelium through interaction with SELPLG/PSGL1. May have a role in capillary morphogenesis.
   
  
 0.949
CYBB
Cytochrome b-245 beta chain.
   
 0.945
MSN
Moesin.
   
 0.941
EZR
FERM domain-containing protein.
    
 0.939
ITGB7
Integrin beta; Belongs to the integrin beta chain family.
   
 0.939
ICAM1
Intercellular adhesion molecule 1; ICAM proteins are ligands for the leukocyte adhesion protein LFA-1 (integrin alpha-L/beta-2). During leukocyte trans-endothelial migration, ICAM1 engagement promotes the assembly of endothelial apical cups through ARHGEF26/SGEF and RHOG activation (By similarity). Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. ICAM family.
   
  
 0.933
NCF4
Neutrophil cytosolic factor 4.
    
 0.901
ITGA4
Integrin subunit alpha 4; Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family.
   
 0.871
