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

CRYBA2Crystallin beta A2; Belongs to the beta/gamma-crystallin family. (189 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
CRYAA
Alpha-crystallin A chain; Contributes to the transparency and refractive index of the lens. Has chaperone-like activity, preventing aggregation of various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions. Required for the correct formation of lens intermediate filaments as part of a complex composed of BFSP1, BFSP2 and CRYAA; Belongs to the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family.
   
  
 0.771
BFSP1
Beaded filament structural protein 1; Belongs to the intermediate filament family.
      
 0.653
CRYAB
Crystallin alpha B; May contribute to the transparency and refractive index of the lens. Has chaperone-like activity, preventing aggregation of various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions.
   
  
 0.535
GJA8
Gap junction protein; One gap junction consists of a cluster of closely packed pairs of transmembrane channels, the connexons, through which materials of low MW diffuse from one cell to a neighboring cell.
  
   
 0.477
MAK16
Protein MAK16 homolog; Belongs to the MAK16 family.
      
 0.456
CLUAP1
Clusterin associated protein 1.
      
 0.455
CRYBB2
Crystallin beta B2; Belongs to the beta/gamma-crystallin family.
   
  
0.450
NXPH3
Neurexophilin; May be signaling molecules that resemble neuropeptides.
  
     0.444
CRYBA1
Crystallin beta A1; Belongs to the beta/gamma-crystallin family.
  
  
0.441
GRIFIN
Galectin.
   
 
 0.427
