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

MMP7ZnMc domain-containing protein. (267 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
CD44
CD44 molecule (Indian blood group).
   
 0.863
SPP1
Osteopontin; Binds tightly to hydroxyapatite. Appears to form an integral part of the mineralized matrix. Probably important to cell-matrix interaction; Belongs to the osteopontin family.
   
 
 0.848
DCN
Decorin; May affect the rate of fibrils formation.
   
 0.838
TIMP1
Metalloproteinase inhibitor 1; Metalloproteinase inhibitor that functions by forming one to one complexes with target metalloproteinases, such as collagenases, and irreversibly inactivates them by binding to their catalytic zinc cofactor. Acts on MMP1, MMP2, MMP3, MMP7, MMP8, MMP9, MMP10, MMP11, MMP12, MMP13 and MMP16. Does not act on MMP14. Also functions as a growth factor that regulates cell differentiation, migration and cell death and activates cellular signaling cascades via CD63 and ITGB1. Plays a role in integrin signaling (By similarity).
   
 
 0.824
CTSV
Cathepsin L1 heavy chain; Thiol protease important for the overall degradation of proteins in lysosomes (By similarity). Involved in the solubilization of cross-linked TG/thyroglobulin and in the subsequent release of thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4) by limited proteolysis of TG/thyroglobulin in the thyroid follicle lumen (By similarity). Belongs to the peptidase C1 family.
   
 0.821
MMP2
Uncharacterized protein.
   
0.806
ELANE
Elastase, neutrophil expressed; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.
   
 0.791
TIMP3
TIMP metallopeptidase inhibitor 3.
   
 
 0.791
OPTC
Opticin.
    
 0.759
PRSS2
Putative trypsinogen; Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.
   
 0.759
