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

 0.606
LCNL1
Lipocalin-like 1 protein; Lipocalin like 1; Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.
      
 0.591
TMEM141
Transmembrane protein 141.
      
 0.521
OBP2A
Odorant binding protein 2A; Belongs to the calycin superfamily. Lipocalin family.
   
  
 0.482
TEDDM1
Transmembrane epididymal protein 1.

FAM174B
Membrane protein FAM174B; Essential for Golgi structural integrity.
      
 0.438
STAC2
SH3 and cysteine-rich domain-containing protein 2; Plays a redundant role in promoting the expression of calcium channel CACNA1S at the cell membrane, and thereby contributes to increased channel activity. Slows down the inactivation rate of the calcium channel CACNA1C.
