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
Your Input:
pqsAProbable coenzyme A ligase; Catalyzes the formation of anthraniloyl-CoA, which is the priming step for entry into the Pseudomonas quinolone signal (PQS) biosynthetic pathway. Also active on a variety of aromatic substrates, including benzoate and chloro and fluoro derivatives of anthranilate. (517 aa)
pqsD3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase III; Required for the biosynthesis of a number of signaling molecules, such as the quinolone signal 2-heptyl-3-hydroxy-4(1H)- quinolone (PQS), 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline (HHQ) and 2,4- dihydroxyquinoline (DHQ). These molecules are required for normal biofilm formation. Catalyzes the transfer of the anthraniloyl moiety from anthraniloyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA to form 2-aminobenzoylacetyl-CoA. The first step of the reaction is the formation of a covalent anthraniloyl-PqsD intermediate. Next, the short-lived intermediate 3-(2-aminophenyl)- 3-oxopropa [...] (337 aa)
pqsEQuinolone signal response protein; Required for the biosynthesis of the quorum-sensing signaling molecules 2-heptyl-4(1H)-quinolone (HHQ) and 2-heptyl-3-hydroxy-4(1H)- quinolone (Pseudomonas quinolone signal or PQS), which are important for biofilm formation and virulence. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the intermediate 2-aminobenzoylacetyl-CoA (2-ABA-CoA) to form 2- aminobenzoylacetate (2-ABA), the precursor of HHQ. In vitro, can also hydrolyze other substrates such as S-ethyl-acetothioacetate and acetoacetyl-CoA, but is inactive against anthraniloyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA and octanoyl-CoA. Be [...] (301 aa)
mvfRTranscriptional regulator MvfR; Transcription regulator that plays a critical role in virulence by positively regulating the expression of multiple quorum sensing (QS)-regulated virulence factors, genes involved in protein secretion, translation, response to oxidative stress and the phnAB operon. At the stationary phase, negatively autoregulates its function through cleavage and translocation to the extracellular space ; Belongs to the LysR transcriptional regulatory family. (332 aa)
lasRTranscriptional regulator LasR; Transcriptional activator of elastase structural gene (LasB). Binds to the PAI autoinducer; Belongs to the autoinducer-regulated transcriptional regulatory protein family. (239 aa)
kynUKynureninase KynU; Catalyzes the cleavage of L-kynurenine (L-Kyn) and L-3- hydroxykynurenine (L-3OHKyn) into anthranilic acid (AA) and 3- hydroxyanthranilic acid (3-OHAA), respectively. (416 aa)
PA2411Probable thioesterase; Product name confidence: Class 3 (Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited sequence similarity to an experimentally studied gene). (254 aa)
pqsHProbable FAD-dependent monooxygenase; Involved in the terminal step of the biosynthesis of quinolone which in addition to serve as a potent signal for quorum sensing, chelates iron and promotes the formation of membrane vesicles (MVs). Catalyzes the hydroxylation of 2-heptyl-4-quinolone (C7-HHQ) to yield 2-heptyl-3-hydroxy-4-quinolone (PQS). Belongs to the 3-hydroxybenzoate 6-hydroxylase family. (382 aa)
rhlRTranscriptional regulator RhlR; Necessary for transcriptional activation of the rhlAB genes encoding the rhamnosyltransferase. It also functions as a transcriptional activator of elastase structural gene (lasB). Binds to autoinducer molecules BHL (N-butanoyl-L-homoserine lactone), and HHL (N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone). (241 aa)
