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

metEHomocysteine S-methyltransferase (cobalamin-independent); Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from 5- methyltetrahydrofolate to homocysteine resulting in methionine formation; Belongs to the vitamin-B12 independent methionine synthase family. (768 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lp_1374
Bifunctional protein: homocysteine methyltransferase (cobalamin-dependent); methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase.
 0.999
metK
Methionine adenosyltransferase; Catalyzes the formation of S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) from methionine and ATP. The overall synthetic reaction is composed of two sequential steps, AdoMet formation and the subsequent tripolyphosphate hydrolysis which occurs prior to release of AdoMet from the enzyme.
  
 0.985
cgs
Cysteine gamma synthase/O-succinylhomoserine (thiol)-lyase.
  
 
 0.953
cblB
Cystathionine beta-lyase / cystathionine gamma-lyase.
  
 
 0.947
luxS
S-ribosylhomocysteine lyase/autoinducer production protein LuxS; Involved in the synthesis of autoinducer 2 (AI-2) which is secreted by bacteria and is used to communicate both the cell density and the metabolic potential of the environment. The regulation of gene expression in response to changes in cell density is called quorum sensing. Catalyzes the transformation of S-ribosylhomocysteine (RHC) to homocysteine (HC) and 4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentadione (DPD). Belongs to the LuxS family.
  
 
 0.934
metH
Homocysteine S-methyltransferase (cobalamin-dependent).
   
 
 0.924
oahS
O-acetylhomoserine sulfhydrylase.
  
 
 0.920
dapC
LL-diaminopimelate aminotransferase, AAT family, PLP-dependent.
   
 
 0.913
metS
methionine-tRNA synthetase; Is required not only for elongation of protein synthesis but also for the initiation of all mRNA translation through initiator tRNA(fMet) aminoacylation; Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. MetG type 2B subfamily.
    
 0.909
cblA1
Cystathionine beta-lyase.
  
 
  0.902
