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

malGMaltose transporter subunit; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane. (296 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
malF
Maltose transporter subunit; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
 0.999
malE
Maltose transporter subunit; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Binds maltose and higher maltodextrins such as maltotriose. Belongs to the bacterial solute-binding protein 1 family.
 
 0.999
malK
Maltose ABC transportor ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Maltooligosaccharide importer (TC 3.A.1.1.1) family.
 
 0.999
lamB
Maltose outer membrane porin (maltoporin); Involved in the transport of maltose and maltodextrins, indispensable for translocation of dextrins containing more than three glucosyl moieties. A hydrophobic path ('greasy slide') of aromatic residues serves to guide and select the sugars for transport through the channel. Also acts as a receptor for several bacteriophages including lambda.
 
  
 0.997
ugpC
Sn-glycerol-3-phosphate ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex UgpABCE involved in sn- glycerol-3-phosphate import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system (Probable). Can also transport glycerophosphoryl diesters.
 
 0.993
malM
Maltose regulon periplasmic protein; Not yet known. Might function in the uptake of a still unidentified substrate; To S.typhimurium MalM.
  
  
 0.992
ugpA
Sn-glycerol-3-phosphate ABC transporter permease; Part of the binding-protein-dependent transport system for sn-glycerol-3-phosphate; probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
 
 0.978
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.
     
 0.957
ugpE
Sn-glycerol-3-phosphate ABC transporter permease; Part of the binding-protein-dependent transport system for sn-glycerol-3-phosphate; probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
  
  
0.938
potA
Spermidine/putrescine ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex PotABCD involved in spermidine/putrescine import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system. Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Spermidine/putrescine importer (TC 3.A.1.11.1) family.
