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

smtASmtA metallothionein; May play a role in essential metal ion homeostasis (especially zinc homeostasis) and resistance to certain non-essential metal ions. Metallothioneins have a high content of cysteine residues that bind various heavy metals; Belongs to the metallothionein superfamily. Type 14 family. (56 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
smtB
Transcriptional regulator, ArsR family; Transcriptional repressor of the expression of the smtA gene. Binds two zinc ions per dimer. The complex of DNA and SmtB is dissociated by zinc ions.
     
 0.936
gatA
aspartyl/glutamyl-tRNA(Asn/Gln) amidotransferase subunit A; Allows the formation of correctly charged Gln-tRNA(Gln) through the transamidation of misacylated Glu-tRNA(Gln) in organisms which lack glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase. The reaction takes place in the presence of glutamine and ATP through an activated gamma-phospho-Glu- tRNA(Gln).
      
 0.853
ABB57156.1
ABC transporter permease protein.
      
 0.807
pheT
phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase beta subunit; Belongs to the phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase beta subunit family. Type 1 subfamily.
      
 0.626
ABB56228.1
Beta-carotene 15,15'-dioxygenase.
      
 0.621
thrS
threonyl-tRNA synthetase / Ser-tRNA(Thr) hydrolase; Catalyzes the attachment of threonine to tRNA(Thr) in a two- step reaction: L-threonine is first activated by ATP to form Thr-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Thr). Also edits incorrectly charged L-seryl-tRNA(Thr).
      
 0.554
ABB56312.1
Competence/damage-inducible protein cinA; Belongs to the CinA family.
   
    0.471
ABB57968.1
Multidrug-efflux transporter.
      
 0.420
