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

ACTA1Actin alpha 1, skeletal muscle. (377 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
MYSM1
Myb like, SWIRM and MPN domains 1.
   
 0.700
ITSN2
Intersectin 2.
     
 0.689
G3U095_LOXAF
Uncharacterized protein.
     
 0.689
DCTN2
Dynactin subunit 2.
   
 0.639
ACTR2
Actin-related protein 2; ATP-binding component of the Arp2/3 complex, a multiprotein complex that mediates actin polymerization upon stimulation by nucleation-promoting factor (NPF). The Arp2/3 complex mediates the formation of branched actin networks in the cytoplasm, providing the force for cell motility. Seems to contact the pointed end of the daughter actin filament.
  
0.628
ACTR10
Actin related protein 10; Belongs to the actin family.
   
0.620
ACTR8
Actin-related protein 8; Plays an important role in the functional organization of mitotic chromosomes. Exhibits low basal ATPase activity, and unable to polymerize; Belongs to the actin family. ARP8 subfamily.
    
 0.616
CAPZB
F-actin-capping protein subunit beta; F-actin-capping proteins bind in a Ca(2+)-independent manner to the fast growing ends of actin filaments (barbed end) thereby blocking the exchange of subunits at these ends. Unlike other capping proteins (such as gelsolin and severin), these proteins do not sever actin filaments.
   
 0.615
TUBA4A
Tubulin alpha chain; Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. It binds two moles of GTP, one at an exchangeable site on the beta chain and one at a non-exchangeable site on the alpha chain.
  
 0.612
TPM2
Tropomyosin 2; Belongs to the tropomyosin family.
   
 0.608
