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:
wcaGGDP-L-fucose synthase; Catalyzes the two-step NADP-dependent conversion of GDP-4- dehydro-6-deoxy-D-mannose to GDP-fucose, involving an epimerase and a reductase reaction. Belongs to the NAD(P)-dependent epimerase/dehydratase family. Fucose synthase subfamily. (321 aa)
lacYLactose permease; Responsible for transport of beta-galactosides into the cell, with the concomitant import of a proton (symport system). Can transport lactose, melibiose, lactulose or the analog methyl-1-thio-beta,D- galactopyranoside (TMG), but not sucrose or fructose. The substrate specificity is directed toward the galactopyranosyl moiety of the substrate. (417 aa)
lacZbeta-D-galactosidase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 2 family. (1024 aa)
galKGalactokinase; Catalyzes the transfer of the gamma-phosphate of ATP to D- galactose to form alpha-D-galactose-1-phosphate (Gal-1-P). To a lesser extent, is also able to phosphorylate 2-deoxy-D-galactose and D- galactosamine. Is not able to use D-galacturonic acid, D-talose, L- altrose, and L-glucose as substrates. (382 aa)
galEUDP-galactose-4-epimerase; Involved in the metabolism of galactose. Catalyzes the conversion of UDP-galactose (UDP-Gal) to UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) through a mechanism involving the transient reduction of NAD. It is only active on UDP-galactose and UDP-glucose. (338 aa)
galUGlucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase; May play a role in stationary phase survival; Belongs to the UDPGP type 2 family. (302 aa)
manAMannose-6-phosphate isomerase; Involved in the conversion of glucose to GDP-L-fucose, which can be converted to L-fucose, a capsular polysaccharide. (391 aa)
rcsATranscriptional regulator of colanic acid capsular biosynthesis; Component of the Rcs signaling system, which controls transcription of numerous genes. Binds, with RcsB, to the RcsAB box to regulate expression of genes involved in colanic acid capsule synthesis. (207 aa)
wcaJColanic biosynthesis UDP-glucose lipid carrier transferase; Is the initiating enzyme for colanic acid (CA) synthesis. Catalyzes the transfer of the glucose-1-phosphate moiety from UDP-Glc onto the carrier lipid undecaprenyl phosphate (C55-P), forming a phosphoanhydride bond yielding to glucosyl-pyrophosphoryl-undecaprenol (Glc-PP-C55). Also possesses a weak galactose-1-P transferase activity. Belongs to the bacterial sugar transferase family. (464 aa)
cpsGPhosphomannomutase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the capsular polysaccharide colanic acid; Belongs to the phosphohexose mutase family. (456 aa)
cpsBMannose-1-phosphate guanyltransferase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the capsular polysaccharide colanic acid. (478 aa)
nanTSialic acid transporter; Catalyzes the proton-dependent transport of sialic acid. Can transport the common sialic acid N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) and the related sialic acids N- glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) and 3-keto-3-deoxy-D-glycero-D- galactonononic acid (KDN). Functions as a bidirectional transporter in vitro. Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Sialate:H(+) symporter (SHS) (TC 2.A.1.12) family. (496 aa)
nanAN-acetylneuraminate lyase; Catalyzes the reversible aldol cleavage of N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid; Neu5Ac) to form pyruvate and N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc) via a Schiff base intermediate; Belongs to the DapA family. NanA subfamily. (297 aa)
