"FITM2" - Fat storage-inducing transmembrane protein 2 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

FITM2Fat storage-inducing transmembrane protein 2; Plays an important role in lipid droplet accumulation. Plays a role in the regulation of cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization (262 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
DGAT2
Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2; Essential acyltransferase that catalyzes the terminal and only committed step in triacylglycerol synthesis by using diacylglycerol and fatty acyl CoA as substrates. Required for synthesis and storage of intracellular triglycerides. Probably plays a central role in cytosolic lipid accumulation. In liver, is primarily responsible for incorporating endogenously synthesized fatty acids into triglycerides (By similarity). Functions also as an acyl-CoA retinol acyltransferase (ARAT); Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2 family (388 aa)
     
   
  0.714
BSCL2
Seipin; Is a regulator of lipid catabolism essential for adipocyte differentiation. May also be involved in the central regulation of energy homeostasis (By similarity). Necessary for correct lipid storage and lipid droplets maintenance; may play a tissue-autonomous role in controlling lipid storage in adipocytes and in preventing ectopic lipid droplet formation in non-adipose tissues (462 aa)
           
  0.703
R3HDML
Peptidase inhibitor R3HDML; Putative serine protease inhibitor; CAP superfamily (253 aa)
           
  0.703
AGPAT4
1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase delta; Converts lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) into phosphatidic acid by incorporating an acyl moiety at the sn-2 position of the glycerol backbone; Belongs to the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family (378 aa)
     
   
  0.700
ZFAND3
Zinc finger AN1-type containing 3 (227 aa)
           
  0.669
KCNK16
Potassium channel subfamily K member 16; Outward rectifying potassium channel. Produces rapidly activating and non-inactivating outward rectifier K(+) currents; Potassium two pore domain channel subfamily K (322 aa)
           
  0.649
MGLL
Monoglyceride lipase; Converts monoacylglycerides to free fatty acids and glycerol. Hydrolyzes the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol, and thereby contributes to the regulation of endocannabinoid signaling, nociperception and perception of pain (By similarity). Regulates the levels of fatty acids that serve as signaling molecules and promote cancer cell migration, invasion and tumor growth; Lipases (313 aa)
           
  0.643
GCC1
GRIP and coiled-coil domain-containing protein 1; Probably involved in maintaining Golgi structure (775 aa)
           
  0.642
ACOT8
Acyl-coenzyme A thioesterase 8; Acyl-coenzyme A (acyl-CoA) thioesterases are a group of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free fatty acid and coenzyme A (CoASH), providing the potential to regulate intracellular levels of acyl-CoAs, free fatty acids and CoASH. Competes with bile acid CoA-amino acid N-acyltransferase (BAAT) for bile acid-CoA substrate (such as chenodeoxycholoyl-CoA). Shows a preference for medium-length fatty acyl-CoAs (C2 to C20). Inactive towards substrates with more than C20 aliphatic chains. Involved in the metabolic regulation of peroxisome p [...] (319 aa)
           
  0.634
POLR1E
DNA-directed RNA polymerase I subunit RPA49; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Component of RNA polymerase I which synthesizes ribosomal RNA precursors. Appears to be involved in the formation of the initiation complex at the promoter by mediating the interaction between Pol I and UBTF/UBF (By similarity); Belongs to the eukaryotic RPA49/POLR1E RNA polymerase subunit family (419 aa)
