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

lhgOL-2-hydroxyglutarate oxidase; Catalyzes the dehydrogenation of L-2-hydroxyglutarate (L2HG) to alpha-ketoglutarate and couples to the respiratory chain by feeding electrons from the reaction into the membrane quinone pool. Functions in a L-lysine degradation pathway that proceeds via cadaverine, glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate. (422 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
csiD
tRNA-Ile; Acts as an alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase catalyzing hydroxylation of glutarate (GA) to L-2-hydroxyglutarate (L2HG) in the stationary phase of E.coli. Functions in a L-lysine degradation pathway that proceeds via cadaverine, glutarate and L-2- hydroxyglutarate. Other dicarboxylic acids (oxalate, malonate, succinate, adipate, and pimelate) are not substrates for this enzyme.

gabD
Succinate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase I, NADP-dependent; Catalyzes the NADP(+)-dependent oxidation of succinate semialdehyde to succinate. Thereby functions in a GABA degradation pathway that allows some E.coli strains to utilize GABA as a nitrogen source for growth. Also catalyzes the conversion of glutarate semialdehyde to glutarate, as part of a L- lysine degradation pathway that proceeds via cadaverine, glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate.
  
  
 0.984
gabT
4-aminobutyrate aminotransferase, PLP-dependent; Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes transamination between primary amines and alpha-keto acids. Catalyzes the transfer of the amino group from gamma-aminobutyrate (GABA) to alpha-ketoglutarate (KG) to yield succinic semialdehyde (SSA) and glutamate. Thereby functions in a GABA degradation pathway that allows some E.coli strains to utilize GABA as a nitrogen source for growth. Also catalyzes the conversion of 5-aminovalerate to glutarate semialdehyde, as part of a L-lysine degradation pathway that proceeds via cadaverine, [...]
  
  
 0.983
csiR
Transcriptional repressor of csiD; Negatively regulates the expression of the glaH-lhgD-gabDTP operon in a temporal manner during entry into stationary phase or during the first few hours of carbon starvation. Thereby is involved in the regulation of a L-lysine degradation pathway that proceeds via cadaverine, glutarate and L-2- hydroxyglutarate. Binds to two primary and two secondary sites in the promoter region of the glaH operon with the consensus sequences TTGTN5TTTT and ATGTN5TTTT of the primary sites, each separated by six nucleotides.

gabP
Gamma-aminobutyrate transporter; Transporter for GABA; Belongs to the amino acid-polyamine-organocation (APC) superfamily. Amino acid transporter (AAT) (TC 2.A.3.1) family.
  
  
 0.839
patD
Gamma-aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the oxidation 4-aminobutanal (gamma- aminobutyraldehyde) to 4-aminobutanoate (gamma-aminobutyrate or GABA). This is the second step in one of two pathways for putrescine degradation, where putrescine is converted into 4-aminobutanoate via 4-aminobutanal, which allows E.coli to grow on putrescine as the sole nitrogen source. Also functions as a 5-aminopentanal dehydrogenase in a a L-lysine degradation pathway to succinate that proceeds via cadaverine, glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate. Can also oxidize n-alkyl medium-chain aldehydes, bu [...]

patA
Putrescine:2-oxoglutaric acid aminotransferase, PLP-dependent; Catalyzes the aminotransferase reaction from putrescine to 2- oxoglutarate, leading to glutamate and 4-aminobutanal, which spontaneously cyclizes to form 1-pyrroline. This is the first step in one of two pathways for putrescine degradation, where putrescine is converted into 4- aminobutanoate (gamma-aminobutyrate or GABA) via 4-aminobutanal, which allows E.coli to grow on putrescine as the sole nitrogen source. Also functions as a cadaverine transaminase in a a L-lysine degradation pathway to succinate that proceeds via cad [...]

yeaH
UPF0229 family protein; Belongs to the UPF0229 family.

ldcC
Lysine decarboxylase 2, constitutive; Plays a role in lysine utilization by acting as a lysine decarboxylase.

astA
Arginine succinyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of succinyl-CoA to arginine to produce N(2)-succinylarginine.
