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

ASPRV1Aspartic peptidase retroviral like 1. (343 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
CASP14
Caspase-14 subunit p20, intermediate form; Non-apoptotic caspase involved in epidermal differentiation. Is the predominant caspase in epidermal stratum corneum. Seems to play a role in keratinocyte differentiation and is required for cornification. Regulates maturation of the epidermis by proteolytically processing filaggrin (By similarity). In vitro has a preference for the substrate [WY]-X-X-D motif and is active on the synthetic caspase substrate WEHD-ACF. Involved in processing of prosaposin in the epidermis (By similarity). May be involved in retinal pigment epithelium cell barrie [...]
   
  
 0.550
FLG2
Filaggrin-2; Essential for normal cell-cell adhesion in the cornified cell layers. Important for proper integrity and mechanical strength of the stratum corneum of the epidermis. In the N-terminal section; belongs to the S-100 family.
   
  
 0.524
BLMH
Bleomycin hydrolase; The normal physiological role of BLM hydrolase is unknown, but it catalyzes the inactivation of the antitumor drug BLM (a glycopeptide) by hydrolyzing the carboxamide bond of its B- aminoalaninamide moiety thus protecting normal and malignant cells from BLM toxicity.
      
 0.520
PNPLA1
Patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 1; Lipid hydrolase. Important in the formation of the epidermal lipid barrier. Plays a role in glycerophospholipid metabolism.
   
  
 0.510
NIPAL4
Magnesium transporter NIPA4; Acts as a Mg(2+) transporter. Can also transport other divalent cations such as Ba(2+), Mn(2+), Sr(2+) and Co(2+) but to a much less extent than Mg(2+) (By similarity). May be a receptor for ligands (trioxilins A3 and B3) from the hepoxilin pathway.
   
  
 0.481
MRC1
Macrophage mannose receptor 1; Mediates the endocytosis of glycoproteins by macrophages. Binds both sulfated and non-sulfated polysaccharide chains. (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Dengue virus envelope protein E.
      
 0.477
TGM1
Protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase K; Catalyzes the cross-linking of proteins and the conjugation of polyamines to proteins. Responsible for cross-linking epidermal proteins during formation of the stratum corneum. Involved in cell proliferation ; Belongs to the transglutaminase superfamily. Transglutaminase family.
   
  
 0.450
CYSRT1
Cysteine rich tail 1.
   
  
 0.439
LOR
Loricrin; Major keratinocyte cell envelope protein.
   
  
 0.433
ELMOD3
ELMO domain-containing protein 3; Acts as a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for ARL2 with low specific activity.
   
   0.430
