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

LTC4SLeukotriene C4 synthase; Catalyzes the conjugation of leukotriene A4 with reduced glutathione to form leukotriene C4; Belongs to the MAPEG family. (150 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
LTA4H
Leukotriene A-4 hydrolase; Epoxide hydrolase that catalyzes the final step in the biosynthesis of the proinflammatory mediator leukotriene B4. Has also aminopeptidase activity (By similarity).
     
 0.976
ALOX5
Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase.
   
 0.930
GGT5
Gamma-glutamyltransferase 5.
     
 0.906
GGT1
Uncharacterized protein.
     
 0.906
ALOX5AP
Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein; Required for leukotriene biosynthesis by ALOX5 (5- lipoxygenase). Anchors ALOX5 to the membrane. Binds arachidonic acid, and could play an essential role in the transfer of arachidonic acid to ALOX5. Binds to MK-886, a compound that blocks the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (By similarity); Belongs to the MAPEG family.
   
0.651
PTGES
Prostaglandin E synthase; Catalyzes the oxidoreduction of prostaglandin endoperoxide H2 (PGH2) to prostaglandin E2 (PGE2).
    
 
 0.610
PLA2G4A
Cytosolic phospholipase A2; Selectively hydrolyzes arachidonyl phospholipids in the sn-2 position releasing arachidonic acid. Together with its lysophospholipid activity, it is implicated in the initiation of the inflammatory response (By similarity).
      
 0.569
MGST1
Microsomal glutathione S-transferase 1; Conjugation of reduced glutathione to a wide number of exogenous and endogenous hydrophobic electrophiles. Has a wide substrate specificity (By similarity); Belongs to the MAPEG family.
    
 
 0.557
TBXAS1
Thromboxane-A synthase; Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
   
  
 0.541
SH2D7
SH2 domain containing 7.
      
 0.538
