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

SHOXShort stature homeobox protein; Controls fundamental aspects of growth and development; Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily. (292 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ARSL
Arylsulfatase L; May be essential for the correct composition of cartilage and bone matrix during development. Has no activity toward steroid sulfates.
      
 0.915
CD99
CD99 antigen; Involved in T-cell adhesion processes and in spontaneous rosette formation with erythrocytes. Plays a role in a late step of leukocyte extravasation helping leukocytes to overcome the endothelial basement membrane. Acts at the same site as, but independently of, PECAM1. Involved in T-cell adhesion processes (By similarity).
      
 0.777
STS
Steryl-sulfatase; Catalyzes the conversion of sulfated steroid precursors, such as dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) and estrone sulfate to the free steroid.
      
 0.762
CSF2RA
Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor subunit alpha; Low affinity receptor for granulocyte-macrophage colony- stimulating factor. Transduces a signal that results in the proliferation, differentiation, and functional activation of hematopoietic cells; Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 5 subfamily.
   
  
 0.756
SRY
Sex-determining region Y protein; Transcriptional regulator that controls a genetic switch in male development. It is necessary and sufficient for initiating male sex determination by directing the development of supporting cell precursors (pre-Sertoli cells) as Sertoli rather than granulosa cells (By similarity). In male adult brain involved in the maintenance of motor functions of dopaminergic neurons (By similarity). Involved in different aspects of gene regulation including promoter activation or repression (By similarity). Promotes DNA bending. SRY HMG box recognizes DNA by partia [...]

SOX5
Transcription factor SOX-5; Binds specifically to the DNA sequence 5'-AACAAT-3'. Activates transcription of COL2A1 and AGC1 in vitro.
   
 
 0.709
SOX3
Transcription factor SOX-3; Transcription factor required during the formation of the hypothalamo-pituitary axis. May function as a switch in neuronal development. Keeps neural cells undifferentiated by counteracting the activity of proneural proteins and suppresses neuronal differentiation. Required also within the pharyngeal epithelia for craniofacial morphogenesis. Controls a genetic switch in male development. Is necessary for initiating male sex determination by directing the development of supporting cell precursors (pre-Sertoli cells) as Sertoli rather than granulosa cells (By s [...]
   
  
 0.692
SOX6
Transcription factor SOX-6; Transcriptional activator. Binds specifically to the DNA sequence 5'-AACAAT-3'. Plays a key role in several developmental processes, including neurogenesis and skeleton formation.
    
 
 0.667
PKNOX1
Homeobox protein PKNOX1; Activates transcription in the presence of PBX1A and HOXA1.
    
 
 0.658
ASMT
Acetylserotonin O-methyltransferase; Isoform 1 catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group onto N- acetylserotonin, producing melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine). Isoform 2 and isoform 3 lack enzyme activity. Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Cation-independent O-methyltransferase family.
