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.

ASIPAgouti signaling protein. (134 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
MGRN1
Mahogunin ring finger 1.
      
 0.812
MC4R
Melanocortin 4 receptor.
    
 0.720
MC3R
Melanocortin 3 receptor.
    
 0.705
EDNRB
Endothelin receptor type B; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
    
 0.702
RHO
Rhodopsin; Photoreceptor required for image-forming vision at low light intensity. Required for photoreceptor cell viability after birth (By similarity). Light-induced isomerization of 11-cis to all-trans retinal triggers a conformational change that activates signaling via G- proteins. Subsequent receptor phosphorylation mediates displacement of the bound G-protein alpha subunit by the arrestin SAG and terminates signaling (By similarity).
    
 0.694
MC2R
Melanocortin 2 receptor.
    
 0.661
POMC
Corticotropin-like intermediary peptide; [Corticotropin]: Stimulates the adrenal glands to release cortisol. [Melanocyte-stimulating hormone beta]: Increases the pigmentation of skin by increasing melanin production in melanocytes. [Met-enkephalin]: Endogenous opiate; Belongs to the POMC family.
      
 0.654
LOC111751269
Uncharacterized protein.
      
 0.645
TYRP1
Tyrosinase related protein 1.
      
 0.629
ITCH
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase.
      
 0.625
