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

egtAGlutamate--cysteine ligase; Catalyzes the synthesis of gamma-glutamylcysteine (gamma-GC). This compound is used as substrate for the biosynthesis of the low- molecular thiol compound ergothioneine. (424 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
egtB
TIGR03440 family protein; Catalyzes the oxidative sulfurization of hercynine (N- alpha,N-alpha,N-alpha-trimethyl-L-histidine) into hercynyl-gamma-L- glutamyl-L-cysteine sulfoxide, a step in the biosynthesis pathway of ergothioneine; Belongs to the EgtB family.
 
 
 0.999
egtD
S-adenosyl-L-methionine- dependentmethyltransferase; Catalyzes the SAM-dependent triple methylation of the alpha- amino group of histidine to form hercynine, a step in the biosynthesis pathway of ergothioneine; Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. EgtD family.
 
  
 0.989
egtC
TIGR03442 family protein; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the gamma-glutamyl amide bond of hercynyl-gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteine sulfoxide to produce hercynylcysteine sulfoxide, a step in the biosynthesis pathway of ergothioneine.
 
  
 0.984
egtE
Pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent transferase; Probably catalyzes the conversion of hercynylcysteine sulfoxide to ergothioneine; Belongs to the class-V pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. EgtE subfamily.
 
  
 0.983
YbdK
Carboxylate-amine ligase; ATP-dependent carboxylate-amine ligase which exhibits weak glutamate--cysteine ligase activity; Belongs to the glutamate--cysteine ligase type 2 family. YbdK subfamily.
    
  0.905
PepN
Aminopeptidase N pepN.
    
  0.904
pepA
Leucyl aminopeptidase; Presumably involved in the processing and regular turnover of intracellular proteins. Catalyzes the removal of unsubstituted N- terminal amino acids from various peptides.
    
  0.903
pxpA
LamB/YcsF family protein; Catalyzes the cleavage of 5-oxoproline to form L-glutamate coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphate.
     
  0.900
Ggt
Gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase precursor ggtB.
     
  0.900
IlvE
Branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase.
     
  0.900
