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.

Score
metAPutative homoserine O-acetyltransferase; Transfers an acetyl group from acetyl-CoA to L-homoserine, forming acetyl-L-homoserine; Belongs to the MetA family. (301 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
samT
Bifunctional homocysteine S-methyltransferase/5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; enzyme.
  
  
 0.981
metI
Cystathionine gamma-synthase and O-acetylhomoserine thiolyase; Catalyzes the formation of L-cystathionine from O-acetyl-L- homoserine and L-cysteine. Cannot use O-succinyl-L-homoserine as substrate. Also exhibits O-acetylhomoserine thiolyase activity, catalyzing the synthesis of L-homocysteine from O-acetyl-L-homoserine and sulfide.
 
 
 0.980
thrB
Homoserine kinase; Catalyzes the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of L-homoserine to L-homoserine phosphate; Belongs to the GHMP kinase family. Homoserine kinase subfamily.
 
 
 0.959
hom
Homoserine dehydrogenase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme.
  
 
 0.954
ilvA
Threonine dehydratase; Catalyzes the anaerobic formation of alpha-ketobutyrate and ammonia from threonine in a two-step reaction. The first step involved a dehydration of threonine and a production of enamine intermediates (aminocrotonate), which tautomerizes to its imine form (iminobutyrate). Both intermediates are unstable and short-lived. The second step is the nonenzymatic hydrolysis of the enamine/imine intermediates to form 2- ketobutyrate and free ammonia. In the low water environment of the cell, the second step is accelerated by RidA (By similarity).
   
 
 0.946
yclM
Aspartate kinase III; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of the beta-carboxyl group of aspartic acid with ATP to yield 4-phospho-L-aspartate, which is involved in the branched biosynthetic pathway leading to the biosynthesis of amino acids threonine, isoleucine and methionine.
  
 0.928
metC
Cystathionine beta-lyase; Catalyzes the transformation of cystathionine into homocysteine. Also exhibits cysteine desulfhydrase activity in vitro, producing sulfide from cysteine; Belongs to the trans-sulfuration enzymes family.
  
  
 0.865
ysaA
Putative phosphatase; Catalyzes the last step of the phosphorylated serine biosynthetic pathway, i.e. dephosphorylation of O-phospho-L-serine to form L-serine. To a lesser extent, is also able to dephosphorylate phosphothreonine, phosphoethanolamine, and histidinol phosphate in vitro; Belongs to the HAD-like hydrolase superfamily.
  
 
  0.830
trpB
Tryptophan synthase (beta subunit); The beta subunit is responsible for the synthesis of L- tryptophan from indole and L-serine.
    
  0.810
sdaAB
L-serine dehydratase (beta chain); Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; enzyme; Belongs to the iron-sulfur dependent L-serine dehydratase family.
