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

tamTrans-aconitate methyltransferase; Catalyzes the S-adenosylmethionine monomethyl esterification of trans-aconitate at high affinity and of cis-aconitate, isocitrate, and citrate at lower velocities and affinities; Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. Tam family. (252 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lsrG
Autoinducer-2 (AI-2) degrading protein LsrG; Involved in the degradation of phospho-AI-2, thereby terminating induction of the lsr operon and closing the AI-2 signaling cycle. Catalyzes the conversion of (4S)-4-hydroxy-5- phosphonooxypentane-2,3-dione (P-DPD) to 3-hydroxy-5- phosphonooxypentane-2,4-dione (P-HPD).
  
  
 0.922
lsrF
Putative autoinducer-2 (AI-2) aldolase; Involved in the degradation of phospho-AI-2, thereby terminating induction of the lsr operon and closing the AI-2 signaling cycle. Catalyzes the transfer of an acetyl moiety from 3-hydroxy-5- phosphonooxypentane-2,4-dione to CoA to form glycerone phosphate and acetyl-CoA; Belongs to the DeoC/FbaB aldolase family.
  
  
 0.886
yneE
Bestrophin family putative inner membrane protein.
      
 0.857
lsrB
Autoinducer 2-binding protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex LsrABCD involved in autoinducer 2 (AI-2) import. Binds AI-2 and delivers it to the LsrC and LsrD permeases (Probable); Belongs to the bacterial solute-binding protein 2 family.
  
  
 0.775
lsrD
Autoinducer 2 import system permease protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex LsrABCD involved in autoinducer 2 (AI-2) import. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane (Probable). Belongs to the binding-protein-dependent transport system permease family. AraH/RbsC subfamily.
  
  
 0.774
lsrA
Autoinducer 2 import ATP-binding protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex LsrABCD involved in autoinducer 2 (AI-2) import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system (Probable). This protein is essential for aerobic growth.
  
  
 0.742
bcsC
Cellulose synthase subunit; Required for maximal bacterial cellulose synthesis.
     
 0.737
lsrR
Lsr operon transcriptional repressor; Regulates transcription of many different genes. In the absence of autoinducer 2 (AI-2), represses transcription of the lsrACDBFG operon and its own transcription. In the presence of AI-2, LsrR is inactivated by binding phospho-AI-2, leading to the transcription of the lsr genes.
  
  
 0.721
lsrC
Autoinducer 2 import system permease protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex LsrABCD involved in autoinducer 2 (AI-2) import. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane (Probable). Belongs to the binding-protein-dependent transport system permease family. AraH/RbsC subfamily.
  
  
 0.713
lsrK
Autoinducer-2 kinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of autoinducer-2 (AI-2) to phospho-AI-2, which subsequently inactivates the transcriptional regulator LsrR and leads to the transcription of the lsr operon. Phosphorylates the ring-open form of (S)-4,5-dihydroxypentane-2,3-dione (DPD), which is the precursor to all AI-2 signaling molecules, at the C5 position. Required for the regulation of the lsr operon and many other genes.
