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

ebgCEvolved beta-D-galactosidase, beta subunit; Required for full activity of the EbgA enzyme. Exact function not known. (149 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ebgA
Evolved beta-D-galactosidase, alpha subunit; The wild-type enzyme is an ineffective lactase. Two classes of point mutations dramatically improve activity of the enzyme; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 2 family.
  
 0.998
ygjI
Putative oxidoreductase.
  
  
 0.960
lacZ
beta-D-galactosidase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 2 family.
    
 0.904
galM
Aldose 1-epimerase; Mutarotase converts alpha-aldose to the beta-anomer. It is active on D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-xylose, D-galactose, maltose and lactose.
     
  0.900
glk
Glucokinase; Not highly important in E.coli as glucose is transported into the cell by the PTS system already as glucose 6-phosphate.
     
  0.900
yihR
Putative sulphoquinovose mutarotase; Putative aldose-1-epimerase.
   
 
  0.900
melA
Alpha-galactosidase, NAD(P)-binding; Alpha-galactosidase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process and NAD biosynthetic process; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 4 family.
     
  0.900
ygjK
Alpha-glucosidase; Glucoside hydrolase that cleaves the alpha-1,3-glucosidic linkage in nigerose. Has very low activity towards maltooligosaccharides, soluble starch, nigerotriose, kojibiose and trehalose.
  
  
 0.826
xylA
D-xylose isomerase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process and glucose metabolic process; Belongs to the xylose isomerase family.
     
  0.800
ebgR
Transcriptional repressor; Repressor for beta galactosidase alpha and beta subunits (ebgA and ebgC). Binds lactose as an inducer.
  
  
 0.746
