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

rtcBUncharacterized conserved protein; GTP-dependent RNA ligase that is involved in tRNA splicing and RNA repair. Joins RNA with 2',3'-cyclic-phosphate or 3'-phosphate ends to RNA with 5'-hydroxy ends. (988 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
MK0228
Uncharacterized conserved protein; Activates the tRNA-splicing ligase complex by facilitating the enzymatic turnover of catalytic subunit RtcB. Acts by promoting the guanylylation of RtcB, a key intermediate step in tRNA ligation. Can also alter the NTP specificity of RtcB such that ATP, dGTP or ITP is used efficiently (By similarity).
 
 0.981
rcl1
RNA phosphate cyclase; Catalyzes the conversion of 3'-phosphate to a 2',3'-cyclic phosphodiester at the end of RNA. The mechanism of action of the enzyme occurs in 3 steps: (A) adenylation of the enzyme by ATP; (B) transfer of adenylate to an RNA-N3'P to produce RNA-N3'PP5'A; (C) and attack of the adjacent 2'-hydroxyl on the 3'-phosphorus in the diester linkage to produce the cyclic end product. The biological role of this enzyme is unknown but it is likely to function in some aspects of cellular RNA processing.

infA
Translation initiation factor IF-1; Seems to be required for maximal rate of protein biosynthesis. Enhances ribosome dissociation into subunits and stabilizes the binding of the initiator Met-tRNA(I) to 40 S ribosomal subunits.
     
 0.929
sui2
Translation initiation factor eIF2-alpha; eIF-2 functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA. Belongs to the eIF-2-alpha family.
   
  
 0.891
MK1246
Acyl-CoA synthetase (NDP forming).
   
   0.814
MK1023
Acyl-CoA synthetase (NDP forming).
   
   0.800
nop1
Fibrillarin-like rRNA methylase; Involved in pre-rRNA and tRNA processing. Utilizes the methyl donor S-adenosyl-L-methionine to catalyze the site-specific 2'-hydroxyl methylation of ribose moieties in rRNA and tRNA. Site specificity is provided by a guide RNA that base pairs with the substrate. Methylation occurs at a characteristic distance from the sequence involved in base pairing with the guide RNA; Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. Fibrillarin family.
   
 0.788
ligT
2'-5' RNA ligase; Hydrolyzes RNA 2',3'-cyclic phosphodiester to an RNA 2'- phosphomonoester; Belongs to the 2H phosphoesterase superfamily. ThpR family.
 
   
 0.777
MK1683
Uncharacterized conserved protein.
       0.760
MK1684
SAM-dependent methyltransferase.
     
 0.756
