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

HEXABeta-hexosaminidase subunit alpha; Responsible for the degradation of GM2 gangliosides, and a variety of other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines, in the brain and other tissues. (529 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
HEXB
Beta-hexosaminidase.
  
0.984
LOC786974
Beta-hexosaminidase.
  
0.983
GLB1
Beta-galactosidase; Cleaves beta-linked terminal galactosyl residues from gangliosides, glycoproteins, and glycosaminoglycans. Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 35 family.
  
 
 0.978
NAGA
Alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase; Removes terminal alpha-N-acetylgalactosamine residues from glycolipids and glycopeptides. Required for the breakdown of glycolipids (By similarity); Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 27 family.
   
 
 0.955
GLA
Alpha-galactosidase.
   
 
 0.939
CHIA
Acidic mammalian chitinase; Degrades chitin and chitotriose. May participate in the defense against nematodes, fungi and other pathogens. Plays a role in T-helper cell type 2 (Th2) immune response. Contributes to the response to IL-13 and inflammation in response to IL-13. Stimulates chemokine production by pulmonary epithelial cells. Protects lung epithelial cells against apoptosis and promotes phosphorylation of AKT1. Its function in the inflammatory response and in protecting cells against apoptosis is inhibited by allosamidin, suggesting that the function of this protein depends on [...]

GNS
N-acetylglucosamine-6-sulfatase; Belongs to the sulfatase family.
   
 0.922
HEXD
Hexosaminidase D; Has hexosaminidase activity. Responsible for the cleavage of the monosaccharides N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) and N- acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) from cellular substrates. Has a preference for galactosaminide over glucosaminide substrates.
     
 0.921
RENBP
N-acylglucosamine 2-epimerase; Catalyzes the interconversion of N-acetylglucosamine to N- acetylmannosamine. Binds to renin forming a protein complex called high molecular weight (HMW) renin and inhibits renin activity. Involved in the N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) degradation pathway (By similarity); Belongs to the N-acylglucosamine 2-epimerase family.
   
 
  0.917
ST3GAL5
Lactosylceramide alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase; Catalyzes the formation of ganglioside GM3 (alpha-N- acetylneuraminyl-2,3-beta-D-galactosyl-1, 4-beta-D-glucosylceramide).
