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

lp_0099Hypothetical protein. (77 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
larO
Cobalt ABC transporter, ATP-binding protein; Probable ATP-binding component of the energy-coupling factor (ECF) transporter complex LarMNQO involved in nickel import. LarO is presumably responsible for energy coupling to the transport system.
       0.718
larQ
Cobalt ABC transporter, permease protein; Probable transmembrane component of the energy-coupling factor (ECF) transporter complex LarMNQO involved in nickel import.
       0.718
cbiM
Cobalt ABC transporter, substrate-binding protein; Probably part of the energy-coupling factor (ECF) transporter complex LarMNQO involved in nickel import. Belongs to the CbiM family. NikM subfamily.
       0.718
larR
Transcription regulator, Crp/FNR family; Positive transcriptional regulator that is absolutely required for the expression of lactate racemase (Lar) activity. Controls Lar expression by sensing the L-/D-lactate ration. Binds to a 16-bp palindromic sequence (Lar box motif) that is present in the larR- larA intergenic region, allowing transcription of the larABCDE operon.
       0.694
larA
Lactate racemization operon protein LarA; Catalyzes the interconversion between the D- and L-isomers of lactate. May act as a rescue enzyme to ensure D-lactate production in physiological conditions where its production by the D-lactate dehydrogenase LdhD is not sufficient. D-Lactate is absolutely required for growth of L.plantarum and is an essential component of the cell wall peptidoglycan in this species, where it is incorporated as the last residue of the muramoyl-pentadepsipeptide peptidoglycan precursor; its incorporation confers high level of vancomycin resistance.
       0.412
larB
Lactate racemization operon protein LarB; Involved in the biosynthesis of a nickel-pincer cofactor ((SCS)Ni(II) pincer complex). Carboxylates the pyridinium ring of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide (NaAD) and cleaves the phosphoanhydride bond to release AMP and generate pyridinium-3,5- biscarboxylic acid mononucleotide (P2CMN). LarB can hydrolyze NaAD directly or it first forms an adduct with NaAD that releases AMP and reacts with bicarbonate/CO2 to generate P2CMN. Is required for the activation of the lactate racemase LarA. May also be involved in the activation of other nickel-pin [...]
