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:
pks2Polyketide synthase Pks2; Catalyzes the synthesis of the hepta- and octamethyl phthioceranic acids and/or hydroxyphthioceranic acids that are the major acyl constituents of sulfolipids. (2126 aa)
pks4Probable polyketide beta-ketoacyl synthase Pks4; Polyketide synthase involved in the biosynthesis of methyl- branched fatty acids such as mycolipanoic, mycolipenic (phthienoic) and mycolipodienoic acids required for the synthesis of a major class of polyacylated trehaloses. Catalyzes the elongation of CoA esters of long-chain fatty acids by incorporation of three methylmalonyl (but not malonyl) residues, to form trimethyl-branched fatty-acids. (1582 aa)
pks5Probable polyketide synthase Pks5; Polyketide synthase likely involved in the biosynthesis of a polymethyl-branched fatty acid (PMB-FA) that might only be produced during host infection. Is required for the full virulence of M.tuberculosis during host infection. (2108 aa)
pks7Rv1661, (MTCY06H11.26), len: 2126 aa. Probable pks7,polyketide synthase, similar to many e.g. ERY2_SACER|Q03132 erythronolide synthase, modules 3 and 4 (3567 aa), FASTA scores: E(): 0, (48.8% identity in 2131 aa overlap); also similar to Mycobacterium tuberculosis pks12. Contains PS00606 Beta-ketoacyl synthases active site, PS00012 Phosphopantetheine attachment site. (2126 aa)
pks17Rv1663, (MTCY275.02), len: 502 aa. Probable pks17,polyketide synthase, similar to other polyketide synthases e g. ERY2_SACER|Q03132 erythronolide synthase, modules 3 and 4 (3567 aa) from Saccharopolyspora erythraea (Streptomyces erythraeus), FASTA scores: opt: 1207, E(): 0,(43.9% identity in 531 aa overlap). Also similar to other Mycobacterium tuberculosis probable polyketide synthases e.g. pks7 and pks1. Note that the similarity extends into the upstream ORF Rv1662 (MTCY275.01) and this could be accounted for by a frameshift, although the sequence has been checked and no discrepancy w [...] (502 aa)
pks12Polyketide synthase Pks12; Rv2048c, (MTV018.35c), len: 4151 aa. Pks12,polyketide synthase similar to many. Contains 2x PS00012 Phosphopantetheine attachment site, 2x PS00606 Beta-ketoacyl synthases active site, and PS00343 Gram-positive cocci surface proteins 'anchoring' hexapeptide. Nucleotide position 2297976 in the genome sequence has been corrected, G:A resulting in S3004L. (4151 aa)
ppsAPhenolpthiocerol synthesis type-I polyketide synthase PpsA; Involved in the elongation of either C22-24 fatty acids by the addition of malonyl-CoA and methylmalonyl-CoA extender units to yield phthiocerol derivatives. (1876 aa)
ppsCPhenolpthiocerol synthesis type-I polyketide synthase PpsC; Involved in the elongation of either C22-24 fatty acids by the addition of malonyl-CoA and methylmalonyl-CoA extender units to yield phthiocerol derivatives. (2188 aa)
ppsDPhenolpthiocerol synthesis type-I polyketide synthase PpsD; Involved in the elongation of either C22-24 fatty acids by the addition of malonyl-CoA and methylmalonyl-CoA extender units to yield phthiocerol derivatives. (1827 aa)
masRv2940c, (MTCY24G1.09, MTCY19H9.08c), len: 2111 aa. Probable mas, mycocerosic acid synthase membrane associated, multifunctional enzyme (see citations below),almost identical to Q02251|MCAS_MYCBO|mas mycocerosic acid synthase from Mycobacterium bovis (2110 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 13226, E(): 0, (95.8% identity in 2115 aa overlap) (see Mathur & Kolattukudy 1992); and equivalent to Q9CD78|mas|ML0139 putative mycocerosic synthase from Mycobacterium leprae (2116 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 12142,E(): 0, (87.95% identity in 2119 aa overlap); and Q49624|PKS3|MASA|ML1229|B1170_C2_209 probable myc [...] (2111 aa)
pks1Probable polyketide synthase Pks1; May play a role in phthiocerol biosynthesis. (1616 aa)
