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

Score
glpFGlycerol permease; Glycerol enters the cell via the glycerol diffusion facilitator protein. This membrane protein facilitates the movement of glycerol across the cytoplasmic membrane; Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family. (274 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
glpK
Glycerol kinase; Key enzyme in the regulation of glycerol uptake and metabolism. Catalyzes the phosphorylation of glycerol to yield sn- glycerol 3-phosphate; Belongs to the FGGY kinase family.
 
 0.999
glpD
Glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme.
  
 0.998
gmk
Guanylate kinase; Essential for recycling GMP and indirectly, cGMP.
      
 0.956
glpP
Glycerol-3-phosphate responding transcription antiterminator; Regulates expression of the glpD operon. In the presence of glycerol 3-phosphate (G3P) causes antitermination of transcription of glpD at the inverted repeat of the leader region to enhance its transcription. Binds and stabilizes glpD leader mRNA. May also regulate expression of the glpFK operon.
 
  
 0.946
tpiA
Triose phosphate isomerase; Involved in the gluconeogenesis. Catalyzes stereospecifically the conversion of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) to D- glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P); Belongs to the triosephosphate isomerase family.
   
 
 0.939
ilvD
Dihydroxy-acid dehydratase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the IlvD/Edd family.
      
 0.933
pycA
Pyruvate carboxylase; Catalyzes a 2-step reaction, involving the ATP-dependent carboxylation of the covalently attached biotin in the first step and the transfer of the carboxyl group to pyruvate in the second, leading to oxaloacetate production. Fulfills an anaplerotic function in B.subtilis as it is necessary for growth on glucose, but is not required for sporulation.
   
  
 0.932
pta
Phosphotransacetylase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme.
  
  
 0.886
purH
Fused phosphoribosylaminoimidazole carboxy formyl formyltransferase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; enzyme.
     
 0.881
glpT
Glycerol-3-phosphate permease; Responsible for glycerol-3-phosphate uptake; Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Organophosphate:Pi antiporter (OPA) (TC 2.A.1.4) family.
  
  
 0.875
