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

tnaBTryptophan transporter of low affinity; Involved in tryptophan transport across the cytoplasmic membrane. Plays a role in transporting tryptophan which is to be used catabolically. (415 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
tnaA
tryptophanase/L-cysteine desulfhydrase, PLP-dependent; Tryptophanase; Protein involved in cellular amino acid catabolic process; Belongs to the beta-eliminating lyase family.
  
  
 0.988
tnaC
Tryptophanase leader peptide; Required for tryptophan-regulated expression of the tna operon. In the presence of free L-Trp release of this nascent peptide by release factor 2 is inhibited and the ribosome stalls with the last amino acid in the P site and a UGA stop codon in the A site. This prevent transcripiton termination factor Rho binding, and thus allows transcription and translation of TnaA and TnaB.
  
  
 0.971
aroP
Aromatic amino acid transporter; Permease that is involved in the transport across the cytoplasmic membrane of the aromatic amino acids (phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan).
      
 0.877
trpC
Indole-3-glycerolphosphate synthetase and N-(5-phosphoribosyl)anthranilate isomerase; Bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes two sequential steps of tryptophan biosynthetic pathway. The first reaction is catalyzed by the isomerase, coded by the TrpF domain; the second reaction is catalyzed by the synthase, coded by the TrpC domain.
      
 0.877
trpA
Tryptophan synthase, alpha subunit; The alpha subunit is responsible for the aldol cleavage of indoleglycerol phosphate to indole and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate; Belongs to the TrpA family.
      
 0.819
trpR
Transcriptional repressor, tryptophan-binding; This protein is an aporepressor. When complexed with L- tryptophan it binds the operator region of the trp operon (5'- ACTAGT-'3') and prevents the initiation of transcription. The complex also regulates trp repressor biosynthesis by binding to its regulatory region.
  
   
 0.642
dcuC
Anaerobic C4-dicarboxylate transport; Responsible for the transport of C4-dicarboxylates during anaerobic growth; Belongs to the DcuC/DcuD transporter (TC 2.A.61) family.
  
  
 0.613
tdcC
L-threonine/L-serine transporter; Involved in the import of threonine and serine into the cell, with the concomitant import of a proton (symport system). Belongs to the amino acid/polyamine transporter 2 family. SdaC/TdcC subfamily.
  
  
 0.610
yddG
Aromatic amino acid exporter YddG; Probable efflux pump. Overexpression confers resistance to phenylalanine and increases export of phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan; Belongs to the drug/metabolite transporter (DMT) superfamily. Aromatic amino acid/paraquat exporter (ArAA/P-E) (TC 2.A.7.17) family.
  
   
 0.582
yidZ
Putative DNA-binding transcriptional regulator; Involved in anaerobic NO protection.
     
 0.576
