"BSX" - Brain-specific homeobox protein homolog in Homo sapiens
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:
some 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 each other.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

BSXBrain-specific homeobox protein homolog; DNA binding protein that function as transcriptional activator. Is essentiel for normal postnatal growth and nursing. Is an essential factor for neuronal neuropeptide Y and agouti- related peptide function and locomotory behavior in the control of energy balance (By similarity); NKL subclass homeoboxes and pseudogenes (233 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
AGRP
Agouti-related protein; Plays a role in weight homeostasis. Involved in the control of feeding behavior through the central melanocortin system. Acts as alpha melanocyte-stimulating hormone antagonist by inhibiting cAMP production mediated by stimulation of melanocortin receptors within the hypothalamus and adrenal gland. Has very low activity with MC5R (By similarity). Is an inverse agonist for MC3R and MC4R being able to suppress their constitutive activity. It promotes MC3R and MC4R endocytosis in an arrestin-dependent manner; Endogenous ligands (132 aa)

SOX5
Transcription factor SOX-5; Binds specifically to the DNA sequence 5’-AACAAT-3’. Activates transcription of COL2A1 and AGC1 in vitro; SRY-boxes (763 aa)
      
 
  0.669
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; SRY-boxes (808 aa)
      
 
  0.659
NEUROG1
Neurogenin-1; Acts as a transcriptional regulator. Involved in the initiation of neuronal differentiation. Activates transcription by binding to the E box (5’-CANNTG-3’). Associates with chromatin to enhancer regulatory elements in genes encoding key transcriptional regulators of neurogenesis (By similarity); Basic helix-loop-helix proteins (237 aa)
      
   
  0.652
UBR1
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase UBR1; E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which is a component of the N-end rule pathway. Recognizes and binds to proteins bearing specific N-terminal residues that are destabilizing according to the N-end rule, leading to their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. May be involved in pancreatic homeostasis. Binds leucine and is a negative regulator of the leucine-mTOR signaling pathway, thereby controlling cell growth; Belongs to the UBR1 family (1749 aa)
            
  0.647
NRGN
Neurogranin; Acts as a "third messenger" substrate of protein kinase C-mediated molecular cascades during synaptic development and remodeling. Binds to calmodulin in the absence of calcium (By similarity); Belongs to the neurogranin family (78 aa)
            
  0.641
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 [...] (446 aa)
      
 
  0.629
ITPKA
Inositol-trisphosphate 3-kinase A; Belongs to the inositol phosphokinase (IPK) family (461 aa)
            
  0.620
SPTSSB
Serine palmitoyltransferase small subunit B; Stimulates the activity of serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT). The composition of the serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) complex determines the substrate preference, complexes with this subunit showing a clear preference for longer acyl-CoAs. The SPTLC1-SPTLC2-SPTSSB complex shows a strong preference for C18-CoA substrate, while the SPTLC1-SPTLC3-SPTSSB isozyme displays an ability to use a broader range of acyl-CoAs, without apparent preference. May play a role in signal transduction (76 aa)
            
  0.605
FOXD3
Forkhead box protein D3; Binds to the consensus sequence 5’-A[AT]T[AG]TTTGTTT-3’ and acts as a transcriptional repressor. Also acts as a transcriptional activator. Promotes development of neural crest cells from neural tube progenitors. Restricts neural progenitor cells to the neural crest lineage while suppressing interneuron differentiation. Required for maintenance of pluripotent cells in the pre-implantation and peri-implantation stages of embryogenesis; Forkhead boxes (478 aa)
