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

MBMyoglobin; Serves as a reserve supply of oxygen and facilitates the movement of oxygen within muscles. (154 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
NGB
Neuroglobin; Belongs to the globin family.
      
 0.891
CYB5B
Cytochrome b5 type B; Belongs to the cytochrome b5 family.
   
 
 0.757
CYB5A
Cytochrome b5 type A; Belongs to the cytochrome b5 family.
   
 
 0.757
MYL1
Myosin light chain 1.
   
 0.728
IL1B
Multifunctional fusion protein; Potent proinflammatory cytokine. Initially discovered as the major endogenous pyrogen, induces prostaglandin synthesis, neutrophil influx and activation, T-cell activation and cytokine production, B- cell activation and antibody production, and fibroblast proliferation and collagen production; Belongs to the IL-1 family.
      
 0.725
PYGL
Alpha-1,4 glucan phosphorylase; Phosphorylase is an important allosteric enzyme in carbohydrate metabolism. Enzymes from different sources differ in their regulatory mechanisms and in their natural substrates. However, all known phosphorylases share catalytic and structural properties.
   
  
 0.681
PYGM
Alpha-1,4 glucan phosphorylase; Phosphorylase is an important allosteric enzyme in carbohydrate metabolism. Enzymes from different sources differ in their regulatory mechanisms and in their natural substrates. However, all known phosphorylases share catalytic and structural properties.
