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

TGM3Protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase E 27 kDa non-catalytic chain; Catalyzes the calcium-dependent formation of isopeptide cross-links between glutamine and lysine residues in various proteins, as well as the conjugation of polyamines to proteins. Involved in the formation of the cornified envelope (CE), a specialized component consisting of covalent cross-links of proteins beneath the plasma membrane of terminally differentiated keratinocytes. Catalyzes small proline-rich proteins (SPRR1 and SPRR2) and LOR cross-linking to form small interchain oligomers, which are further cros [...] (693 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
LOR
Loricrin; Major keratinocyte cell envelope protein.
   
  
 0.907
CST6
Cystatin-M; Shows moderate inhibition of cathepsin B but is not active against cathepsin C; Belongs to the cystatin family.
   
  
 0.867
SBSN
Suprabasin.
   
 
 0.833
LGMN
Legumain; Has a strict specificity for hydrolysis of asparaginyl bonds. Can also cleave aspartyl bonds slowly, especially under acidic conditions. Required for normal lysosomal protein degradation in renal proximal tubules. Required for normal degradation of internalized EGFR. Plays a role in the regulation of cell proliferation via its role in EGFR degradation (By similarity). May be involved in the processing of proteins for MHC class II antigen presentation in the lysosomal/endosomal system; Belongs to the peptidase C13 family.
      
 0.826
CASP14
Caspase-14 subunit p20, intermediate form; Non-apoptotic caspase involved in epidermal differentiation. Is the predominant caspase in epidermal stratum corneum. Seems to play a role in keratinocyte differentiation and is required for cornification. Regulates maturation of the epidermis by proteolytically processing filaggrin (By similarity). In vitro has a preference for the substrate [WY]-X-X-D motif and is active on the synthetic caspase substrate WEHD-ACF. Involved in processing of prosaposin in the epidermis (By similarity). May be involved in retinal pigment epithelium cell barrie [...]
   
 
 0.780
FLG2
Filaggrin-2; Essential for normal cell-cell adhesion in the cornified cell layers. Important for proper integrity and mechanical strength of the stratum corneum of the epidermis. In the N-terminal section; belongs to the S-100 family.
   
 
 0.777
FLG
Filaggrin; Aggregates keratin intermediate filaments and promotes disulfide-bond formation among the intermediate filaments during terminal differentiation of mammalian epidermis.
   
 
 0.757
IVL
Involucrin; Part of the insoluble cornified cell envelope (CE) of stratified squamous epithelia; Belongs to the involucrin family.
   
  
 0.746
CRNN
Cornulin; Promotes cell proliferation, G1/S cell cycle progression and induces expression of the cell cycle regulator CCND1. Regulates proliferation induced by proinflammatory cytokine response via activation of NFKB1 and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways ; Belongs to the S100-fused protein family.
   
  
 0.736
CDSN
Corneodesmosin; Important for the epidermal barrier integrity.
   
  
 0.711
