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

HAPLN4Hyaluronan and proteoglycan link protein 4; Binds to hyaluronic acid and may be involved in formation of the extracellular matrix. (402 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
TM6SF2
Transmembrane 6 superfamily member 2; Regulator of liver fat metabolism influencing triglyceride secretion and hepatic lipid droplet content. May function as sterol isomerase. Belongs to the TM6SF family.
 
 
  
 0.972
TM6SF1
Transmembrane 6 superfamily member 1; May function as sterol isomerase. Belongs to the TM6SF family.
 
    
 0.948
KCNS2
Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily S member 2; Potassium channel subunit that does not form functional channels by itself. Can form functional heterotetrameric channels with KCNB1 and KCNB2; modulates the delayed rectifier voltage-gated potassium channel activation and deactivation rates of KCNB1 and KCNB2.
   
  
 0.671
BCAN
Brevican core protein; May play a role in the terminally differentiating and the adult nervous system during postnatal development. Could stabilize interactions between hyaluronan (HA) and brain proteoglycans; Belongs to the aggrecan/versican proteoglycan family.
   
  
0.669
PVALB
Parvalbumin alpha; In muscle, parvalbumin is thought to be involved in relaxation after contraction. It binds two calcium ions; Belongs to the parvalbumin family.
   
  
 0.609
NCAN
Neurocan core protein; May modulate neuronal adhesion and neurite growth during development by binding to neural cell adhesion molecules (NG-CAM and N- CAM). Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan; binds to hyaluronic acid; Belongs to the aggrecan/versican proteoglycan family.
   
  
0.598
IQCF5
IQ motif containing F5.
      
 0.557
CCDC183
Coiled-coil domain containing 183.
      
 0.529
ADAMTS8
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 8; Has anti-angiogenic properties.
   
  
 0.524
KCNC1
Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily C member 1; Voltage-gated potassium channel that plays an important role in the rapid repolarization of fast-firing brain neurons. The channel opens in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, forming a potassium-selective channel through which potassium ions pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. Can form functional homotetrameric channels and heterotetrameric channels that contain variable proportions of KCNC2, and possibly other family members as well. Contributes to fire sustained trains of very brief action [...]
