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

GOT1Aspartate aminotransferase, cytoplasmic; Biosynthesis of L-glutamate from L-aspartate or L-cysteine. Important regulator of levels of glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the vertebrate central nervous system. Acts as a scavenger of glutamate in brain neuroprotection. The aspartate aminotransferase activity is involved in hepatic glucose synthesis during development and in adipocyte glyceroneogenesis. Using L-cysteine as substrate, regulates levels of mercaptopyruvate, an important source of hydrogen sulfide. Mercaptopyruvate is converted into H(2)S via the action of 3-m [...] (413 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
GPT2
Glutamic--pyruvic transaminase 2.
   
 0.992
MDH2
Malate dehydrogenase, mitochondrial.
   
 0.992
MDH1
Malate dehydrogenase, cytoplasmic.
   
 0.982
GOT2
Aspartate aminotransferase, mitochondrial; Catalyzes the irreversible transamination of the L-tryptophan metabolite L-kynurenine to form kynurenic acid (KA). Plays a key role in amino acid metabolism. Important for metabolite exchange between mitochondria and cytosol. Facilitates cellular uptake of long-chain free fatty acids (By similarity).
  
0.981
GPT
Alanine aminotransferase 1; Catalyzes the reversible transamination between alanine and 2-oxoglutarate to form pyruvate and glutamate. Participates in cellular nitrogen metabolism and also in liver gluconeogenesis starting with precursors transported from skeletal muscles (By similarity).
   
 0.976
MPST
Mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase.
  
 
 0.972
LDHA
L-lactate dehydrogenase A chain.
   
 0.971
FH
Fumarate hydratase, mitochondrial; Catalyzes the reversible stereospecific interconversion of fumarate to L-malate. Experiments in different species have demonstrated that specific isoforms of this protein act in defined pathways and favor one direction over the other (Probable). [Isoform Cytoplasmic]: Catalyzes the dehydration of L-malate to fumarate. Fumarate metabolism in the cytosol plays a role during urea cycle and arginine metabolism; fumarate being a by-product of the urea cycle and amino-acid catabolism (By similarity). Also plays a role in DNA repair by promoting non-homolog [...]
   
 0.969
HPD
4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase; Key enzyme in the degradation of tyrosine; Belongs to the 4HPPD family.
  
 
 0.966
LDHC
L-lactate dehydrogenase C chain; Possible role in sperm motility.
   
 0.963
