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

Score
HFEHomeostatic iron regulator; Belongs to the MHC class I family. (403 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
TFRC
Transferrin receptor protein 1.
    
 0.994
B2M
Beta-2-microglobulin; Component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system.
   
 0.868
HJV
Hemojuvelin BMP co-receptor.
     
 0.830
EPO
Erythropoietin; Hormone involved in the regulation of erythrocyte proliferation and differentiation and the maintenance of a physiological level of circulating erythrocyte mass. Binds to EPOR leading to EPOR dimerization and JAK2 activation thereby activating specific downstream effectors, including STAT1 and STAT3. Belongs to the EPO/TPO family.
    
 0.807
RPA2
Replication protein A2.
   
 0.802
SLC40A1
Solute carrier family 40 protein; May be involved in iron transport and iron homeostasis. Belongs to the ferroportin (FP) (TC 2.A.100) family. SLC40A subfamily.
      
 0.747
TMPRSS6
Transmembrane serine protease 6; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.
     
 0.655
BMP6
Bone morphogenetic protein 6.
      
 0.652
ALB
Albumin.
   
 
 0.517
GKN1
Gastrokine 1.
      
 0.511
