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:
btuBVitamin B12/cobalamin outer membrane transporter; Involved in the active translocation of vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) across the outer membrane to the periplasmic space. It derives its energy for transport by interacting with the trans- periplasmic membrane protein TonB. Is also a receptor for bacteriophages BF23 and C1, and for A and E colicins. (614 aa)
tonBMembrane spanning protein in TonB-ExbB-ExbD transport complex; Interacts with outer membrane receptor proteins that carry out high-affinity binding and energy dependent uptake into the periplasmic space of specific substrates such as cobalamin, and various iron compounds (such as iron dicitrate, enterochelin, aerobactin, etc.). In the absence of TonB these receptors bind their substrates but do not carry out active transport. TonB also interacts with some colicins and is involved in the energy-dependent, irreversible steps of bacteriophages phi 80 and T1 infection. It could act to tran [...] (239 aa)
btuDVitamin B12 ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex BtuCDF involved in vitamin B12 import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system. (249 aa)
btuEGlutathione peroxidase; Non-specific peroxidase that can use thioredoxin or glutathione as a reducing agent. In vitro, utilizes preferentially thioredoxin A to decompose hydrogen peroxide as well as cumene-, tert- butyl-, and linoleic acid hydroperoxides, suggesting that it may have one or more organic hydroperoxide as its physiological substrate. Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family. BtuE subfamily. (183 aa)
btuCVitamin 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. (326 aa)
