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

TCAF1TRPM8 channel-associated factor 1; Positively regulates the plasma membrane cation channel TRPM8 activity. Involved in the recruitment of TRPM8 to the cell surface. Promotes prostate cancer cell migration inhibition in a TRPM8-dependent manner. (921 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
PEG10
Retrotransposon-derived protein PEG10; Prevents apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells through interaction with SIAH1, a mediator of apoptosis. May also have a role in cell growth promotion and hepatoma formation. Inhibits the TGF-beta signaling by interacting with the TGF-beta receptor ALK1. When overexpressed, induces the formation of cellular extension, such as filipodia in association with ALK1. Involved at the immediate early stage of adipocyte differentiation (By similarity). May bind to the 5'- GCCTGTCTTT-3' DNA sequence of the MB1 domain in the myelin basic protein ( [...]

TRPM8
Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 8; Receptor-activated non-selective cation channel involved in detection of sensations such as coolness, by being activated by cold temperature below 25 degrees Celsius. Activated by icilin, eucalyptol, menthol, cold and modulation of intracellular pH. Involved in menthol sensation. Permeable for monovalent cations sodium, potassium, and cesium and divalent cation calcium. Temperature sensing is tightly linked to voltage-dependent gating. Activated upon depolarization, changes in temperature resulting in graded shifts of it [...]

OR2F2
Olfactory receptor 2F2; Odorant receptor; Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
      
 0.577
PTPN20
Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 20; Tyrosine-protein phosphatase targeted to sites of actin polymerization in response of varied extracellular stimuli. Has tyrosine phosphatase activity towards various tyrosyl phosphorylated substrates; Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Non- receptor class subfamily.

CTAGE6
CTAGE family member 6.
      
 0.506
UBXN1
UBX domain-containing protein 1; Ubiquitin-binding protein that plays a role in the modulation of innate immune response. Blocks both the RIG-I-like receptors (RLR) and NF-kappa-B pathways. Following viral infection, UBXN1 is induced and recruited to the RLR component MAVS. In turn, interferes with MAVS oligomerization, and disrupts the MAVS/TRAF3/TRAF6 signalosome. This function probably serves as a brake to prevent excessive RLR signaling. Interferes with the TNFalpha-triggered NF-kappa-B pathway by interacting with cellular inhibitors of apoptosis proteins (cIAPs) and thereby inhibi [...]

ARHGEF5
Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 5; Guanine nucleotide exchange factor which activates Rho GTPases. Strongly activates RHOA. Also strongly activates RHOB, weakly activates RHOC and RHOG and shows no effect on RHOD, RHOV, RHOQ or RAC1 (By similarity). Involved in regulation of cell shape and actin cytoskeletal organization. Plays a role in actin organization by generating a loss of actin stress fibers and the formation of membrane ruffles and filopodia. Required for SRC-induced podosome formation (By similarity). Involved in positive regulation of immature dendritic cell migration [...]

ARHGAP11B
Rho GTPase-activating protein 11B; Hominin-specific protein that promotes development and evolutionary expansion of the brain neocortex. Able to promote amplification of basal progenitors in the subventricular zone, producing more neurons during fetal corticogenesis. Does not possess GTPase activator activity.
      
 0.477
ARHGAP11B-2
Rho GTPase activating protein 11B.
      
 0.476
DUSP22
Dual specificity protein phosphatase 22; Activates the Jnk signaling pathway. Dephosphorylates and deactivates p38 and stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (SAPK/JNK) (By similarity).
