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

ENPEPAminopeptidase. (953 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
AGT
Angiotensin 1-4; Essential component of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), a potent regulator of blood pressure, body fluid and electrolyte homeostasis. [Angiotensin-3]: stimulates aldosterone release. Belongs to the serpin family.
   
 0.904
MAP2K5
Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 5; Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily.
      
 0.789
ERBB3
Erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 3.
    
 0.701
RBP5
Retinol binding protein 5; Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Fatty-acid binding protein (FABP) family.
      
 0.692
EPAS1
Endothelial PAS domain protein 1.
   
 
 0.662
DPP4
Dipeptidyl peptidase 4; Belongs to the peptidase S9B family.
   
 
 0.647
ACE2
Angiotensin-converting enzyme.
   
  
 0.636
CTSB
Cathepsin B heavy chain; Thiol protease which is believed to participate in intracellular degradation and turnover of proteins (By similarity). Cleaves matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein MEPE (By similarity). Involved in the solubilization of cross-linked TG/thyroglobulin in the thyroid follicle lumen (By similarity). Has also been implicated in tumor invasion and metastasis (By similarity). Belongs to the peptidase C1 family.
   
  
 0.629
REN
Renin; Renin is a highly specific endopeptidase, whose only known function is to generate angiotensin I from angiotensinogen in the plasma, initiating a cascade of reactions that produce an elevation of blood pressure and increased sodium retention by the kidney.
     
 0.620
XPNPEP3
X-prolyl aminopeptidase 3.
  
 
 0.612
