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

MFSD8Major facilitator superfamily domain-containing protein 8; May be a carrier that transport small solutes by using chemiosmotic ion gradients. (518 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
CLN8
Protein CLN8; Could play a role in cell proliferation during neuronal differentiation and in protection against cell death.
      
 0.963
CLN3
Battenin; Involved in microtubule-dependent, anterograde transport of late endosomes and lysosomes.
   
 
 0.952
CLN6
CLN6 transmembrane ER protein.
      
 0.947
CLN5
Ceroid-lipofuscinosis neuronal protein 5, secreted form; Plays a role in influencing the retrograde trafficking of lysosomal sorting receptors SORT1 and IGF2R from the endosomes to the trans-Golgi network by controlling the recruitment of retromer complex to the endosomal membrane. Regulates the localization and activation of RAB7A which is required to recruit the retromer complex to the endosomal membrane.
   
  
 0.938
PPT1
Palmitoyl-protein thioesterase 1; Removes thioester-linked fatty acyl groups such as palmitate from modified cysteine residues in proteins or peptides during lysosomal degradation. Prefers acyl chain lengths of 14 to 18 carbons ; Belongs to the palmitoyl-protein thioesterase family.
      
 0.915
DNAJC5
DnaJ homolog subfamily C member 5; Acts as a general chaperone in regulated exocytosis (By similarity). Acts as a co-chaperone for the SNARE protein SNAP-25 (By similarity). Involved in the calcium-mediated control of a late stage of exocytosis (By similarity). May have an important role in presynaptic function. May be involved in calcium-dependent neurotransmitter release at nerve endings (By similarity).
   
  
 0.838
CTSD
Cathepsin D heavy chain; Acid protease active in intracellular protein breakdown. Plays a role in APP processing following cleavage and activation by ADAM30 which leads to APP degradation. Involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases such as breast cancer and possibly Alzheimer disease.
   
  
 0.789
KCTD7
BTB/POZ domain-containing protein KCTD7; May be involved in the control of excitability of cortical neurons.
   
  
 0.776
CTSF
Cathepsin F; Thiol protease which is believed to participate in intracellular degradation and turnover of proteins. Has also been implicated in tumor invasion and metastasis.
      
 0.708
TPP1
Tripeptidyl-peptidase 1; Lysosomal serine protease with tripeptidyl-peptidase I activity. May act as a non-specific lysosomal peptidase which generates tripeptides from the breakdown products produced by lysosomal proteinases. Requires substrates with an unsubstituted N-terminus.
