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

pbuGHypoxanthine/guanine permease; Involved in the uptake of the purine bases hypoxanthine and guanine; Belongs to the xanthine/uracil permease family. AzgA purine transporter (TC 2.A.1.40) subfamily. (440 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
xpt
Xanthine phosphoribosyltransferase; Converts the preformed base xanthine, a product of nucleic acid breakdown, to xanthosine 5'-monophosphate (XMP), so that it can be reused for RNA or DNA synthesis; Belongs to the purine/pyrimidine phosphoribosyltransferase family. Xpt subfamily.
  
  
 0.982
nupG
Purine nucleoside transporter; Involved in the uptake of the purine ribonucleosides inosine and guanosine.
  
  
 0.926
pbuX
Xanthine permease; Transport of xanthine in the cell; Belongs to the xanthine/uracil permease family. Nucleobase:cation symporter-2 (NCS2) (TC 2.A.40) subfamily.
  
  
 0.914
guaC
GMP reductase; Catalyzes the irreversible NADPH-dependent deamination of GMP to IMP. It functions in the conversion of nucleobase, nucleoside and nucleotide derivatives of G to A nucleotides, and in maintaining the intracellular balance of A and G nucleotides (Probable).
  
  
 0.892
purR
Transcriptional regulator of the purine biosynthesis operon; Controls the transcription of the pur operon for purine biosynthetic genes, binds to the control region of the operon. DNA binding is inhibited by 5-phosphoribosyl 1-pyrophosphate; Belongs to the purine/pyrimidine phosphoribosyltransferase family.
  
  
 0.888
purA
Adenylosuccinate synthetase; Plays an important role in the de novo pathway of purine nucleotide biosynthesis. Catalyzes the first committed step in the biosynthesis of AMP from IMP; Belongs to the adenylosuccinate synthetase family.
  
  
 0.869
purQ
Phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthetase I; Part of the phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthase complex involved in the purines biosynthetic pathway. Catalyzes the ATP-dependent conversion of formylglycinamide ribonucleotide (FGAR) and glutamine to yield formylglycinamidine ribonucleotide (FGAM) and glutamate. The FGAM synthase complex is composed of three subunits. PurQ produces an ammonia molecule by converting glutamine to glutamate. PurL transfers the ammonia molecule to FGAR to form FGAM in an ATP- dependent manner. PurS interacts with PurQ and PurL and is thought to assist [...]
