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.

OATOrnithine aminotransferase, mitochondrial. (439 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ARG2
Arginase-2, mitochondrial; May play a role in the regulation of extra-urea cycle arginine metabolism and also in down-regulation of nitric oxide synthesis. Extrahepatic arginase functions to regulate L-arginine bioavailability to nitric oxid synthase (NOS). Arginine metabolism is a critical regulator of innate and adaptive immune responses. Seems to be involved in negative regulation of the survival capacity of activated T cells. May suppress inflammation-related signaling in asthmatic airway epithelium. May play a role in promoting prenatal immune suppression. Regulates RPS6KB1 signal [...]

ARG1
Arginase-1.
  
 0.996
ALDH18A1
Delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the gamma-glutamyl phosphate reductase family.
  
 0.993
ASL
Argininosuccinate lyase; Belongs to the lyase 1 family. Argininosuccinate lyase subfamily.
  
 
 0.991
OTC
Ornithine carbamoyltransferase, mitochondrial; Belongs to the aspartate/ornithine carbamoyltransferase superfamily. OTCase family.
 
 
 0.990
NAGS
N-acetylglutamate synthase.
  
 
 0.985
ASS1
Argininosuccinate synthase; One of the enzymes of the urea cycle, the metabolic pathway transforming neurotoxic amonia produced by protein catabolism into inocuous urea in the liver of ureotelic animals. Catalyzes the formation of arginosuccinate from aspartate, citrulline and ATP and together with ASL it is responsible for the biosynthesis of arginine in most body tissues; Belongs to the argininosuccinate synthase family. Type 1 subfamily.
  
 0.973
ALDH4A1
Delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase, mitochondrial; Irreversible conversion of delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C), derived either from proline or ornithine, to glutamate. This is a necessary step in the pathway interconnecting the urea and tricarboxylic acid cycles. The preferred substrate is glutamic gamma- semialdehyde, other substrates include succinic, glutaric and adipic semialdehydes (By similarity).
  
 0.967
ODC1
Ornithine decarboxylase; Catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step of polyamine biosynthesis that converts ornithine into putrescine, which is the precursor for the polyamines, spermidine and spermine. Polyamines are essential for cell proliferation and are implicated in cellular processes, ranging from DNA replication to apoptosis. Belongs to the Orn/Lys/Arg decarboxylase class-II family.
  
 
 0.952
AZIN2
Antizyme inhibitor 2; Belongs to the Orn/Lys/Arg decarboxylase class-II family.
  
 
 0.947
