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

btuEGlutathione peroxidase; Non-specific peroxidase that can use thioredoxin or glutathione as a reducing agent. In vitro, utilizes preferentially thioredoxin A to decompose hydrogen peroxide as well as cumene-, tert- butyl-, and linoleic acid hydroperoxides, suggesting that it may have one or more organic hydroperoxide as its physiological substrate. Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family. BtuE subfamily. (183 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
btuD
Vitamin B12 ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex BtuCDF involved in vitamin B12 import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system.
  
  
 0.989
gor
Glutathione oxidoreductase; Maintains high levels of reduced glutathione in the cytosol; Belongs to the class-I pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family.
  
 0.986
gstA
Glutathionine S-transferase; Catalyzes the conjugation of reduced glutathione (GSH) to a wide number of exogenous and endogenous hydrophobic electrophiles. Shows activity toward 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) and ethacrynic acid. Also possesses thiol:disulfide oxidoreductase activity, using GSH to reduce bis-(2-hydroxyethyl) disulfide (HEDS). Has a low level of glutathione-dependent peroxidase activity toward cumene hydroperoxide. Is important for defense against oxidative stress, probably via its peroxidase activity. Belongs to the GST superfamily. Beta family.
   
 
 0.944
yfcF
Glutathione S-transferase; Exhibits glutathione (GSH) S-transferase activity toward 1- chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB); however this activity is as low as 1% of that of GstA. Also displays a GSH-dependent peroxidase activity toward cumene hydroperoxide. Is involved in defense against oxidative stress, probably via its peroxidase activity.

btuC
Vitamin B12 ABC transporter permease; Part of the ABC transporter complex BtuCDF involved in vitamin B12 import. Involved in the translocation of the substrate across the membrane; Belongs to the binding-protein-dependent transport system permease family. FecCD subfamily.
    
 0.933
ggt
Gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase; Cleaves the gamma-glutamyl bond of periplasmic glutathione (gamma-Glu-Cys-Gly), glutathione conjugates, and other gamma-glutamyl compounds. The metabolism of glutathione releases free glutamate and the dipeptide cysteinyl-glycine, which is hydrolyzed to cysteine and glycine by dipeptidases; it may function in amino acid uptake/salvage, or possibly in peptidoglycan linkage. Catalyzes the hydrolysis and transpeptidation of many gamma-glutamyl compounds (including some D- gamma-glutamyl substrates), with a preference for basic and aromatic amino acids as acce [...]

gshB
Protein involved in glutathione biosynthetic process.

gstB
Glutathione S-transferase; Conjugation of reduced glutathione to a wide number of exogenous and endogenous hydrophobic electrophiles. Catalyzes the glutathione-dependent dehalogenation of bromoacetate.
   
 
 0.927
chaC
Cation transport regulator; Catalyzes the cleavage of glutathione into 5-oxo-L-proline and a Cys-Gly dipeptide. Acts specifically on glutathione, but not on other gamma-glutamyl peptides.
   
 
  0.903
gss
Glutathionylspermidine amidase and glutathionylspermidine synthetase; Catalyzes the formation of an amide bond between glutathione (GSH) and spermidine coupled with hydrolysis of ATP; also catalyzes the opposing reaction, i.e. the hydrolysis of glutathionylspermidine (Gsp) back to glutathione and spermidine. The amidase active site can also hydrolyze Gsp-disulfide (Gsp-S-S-Gsp) to Gsp-SG and Gsp S-thiolated proteins (GspSSPs) to GSH S-thiolated protein (GSSPs). Likely acts synergistically with glutaredoxin to regulate the redox environment of E.coli and defend against oxidative damage. [...]
