Interaction type

Involved objects

Description

Number of ANDCell entries

association

Proteins, genes, metabolites, cell components, diseases, pathways

Association type is used to define the relationships between genes and diseases. The Association is also used as a type of relationship between other objects, if a particular type of relationship has been omitted in the text.

3,433,168

involvement

Proteins, pathways

Involvement of proteins into pathways (UniProt-GOA).

728,947

interaction

Proteins, genes, metabolites, cell components

Formation of molecular complexes.

242,757

expression

Proteins, genes

The protein product of gene expression (NCBI gene)

178,761

expression regulation*

Proteins, genes

Direct regulation by a transcription factor that physically interacts with a gene promoter and indirect regulation of gene expression by proteins.

236,298

pathway regulation*

Proteins, metabolites, pathways

Activation and termination of pathway functioning.

234,179

transport regulation

Proteins, metabolites

64,810

treatment

Proteins, metabolites, diseases

The use of a molecular agent for treatment of a known disease.

51,195

catalyze

Proteins, metabolites

Catalytic reactions are reactions involving metabolites as substrates and products; also, a protein as an enzyme catalyzing this reaction.

49,173

activity regulation*

Proteins, metabolites, cellular components

Regulation of activity/function of proteins and cellular components.

101,953

degradation regulation*

Proteins, metabolites, cellular components

Regulation of stability or degradation of molecular objects.

17,751

miRNA regulation

miRNA, proteins

Regulation of protein expression.

23,576

coexpression

Genes

Co-expression of several genes.

6,618

cleavage

Proteins

Protein cleavage events. Protein substrate and proteolytic enzyme are participants.

2,178

catalyzed modification

Proteins, metabolites

Catalysis of post-translational protein modifications.

430

conversion

metabolites

Catalytic reaction in a case when a catalyst enzyme is not indicated; also when the reaction proceeds without a catalyst.
