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

LOXL4Lysyl oxidase homolog 4; May modulate the formation of a collagenous extracellular matrix. (757 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ELN
Elastin; Major structural protein of tissues such as aorta and nuchal ligament, which must expand rapidly and recover completely. Molecular determinant of the late arterial morphogenesis, stabilizing arterial structure by regulating proliferation and organization of vascular smooth muscle (By similarity); Belongs to the elastin family.
    
 0.811
LOXL1
Lysyl oxidase homolog 1; Active on elastin and collagen substrates.
   
 
0.681
BMP1
Metalloendopeptidase.
   
 0.672
LOX
Protein-lysine 6-oxidase, short form; Responsible for the post-translational oxidative deamination of peptidyl lysine residues in precursors to fibrous collagen and elastin. Regulator of Ras expression. May play a role in tumor suppression. Plays a role in the aortic wall architecture (By similarity); Belongs to the lysyl oxidase family.
  
 
0.638
FBLN5
Fibulin-5; Essential for elastic fiber formation, is involved in the assembly of continuous elastin (ELN) polymer and promotes the interaction of microfibrils and ELN. Stabilizes and organizes elastic fibers in the skin, lung and vasculature. Promotes adhesion of endothelial cells through interaction of integrins and the RGD motif. Vascular ligand for integrin receptors which may play a role in vascular development and remodeling. May act as an adapter that mediates the interaction between FBN1 and ELN. Belongs to the fibulin family.
     
 0.606
LOXL3
Lysyl oxidase like 3.
  
 
0.599
HOXC9
Homeobox protein; Sequence-specific transcription factor which is part of a developmental regulatory system that provides cells with specific positional identities on the anterior-posterior axis. Belongs to the Abd-B homeobox family.
    
 
 0.585
CHCHD1
Coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain containing 1.
      
 0.576
TMEM8B
Transmembrane protein 8B; May function as a regulator of the EGFR pathway. Probable tumor suppressor which may function in cell growth, proliferation and adhesion (By similarity); Belongs to the TMEM8 family.
      
 0.560
ING5
Inhibitor of growth family member 5.
    
 
 0.557
