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

trpEAnthranilate synthase; Part of a heterotetrameric complex that catalyzes the two- step biosynthesis of anthranilate, an intermediate in the biosynthesis of L-tryptophan. In the first step, the glutamine-binding beta subunit (TrpG) of anthranilate synthase (AS) provides the glutamine amidotransferase activity which generates ammonia as a substrate that, along with chorismate, is used in the second step, catalyzed by the large alpha subunit of AS (TrpE) to produce anthranilate. In the absence of TrpG, TrpE can synthesize anthranilate directly from chorismate and high concentrations of am [...] (515 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pabA
4-amino-4-deoxychorismate synthase; Part of a heterodimeric complex that catalyzes the two-step biosynthesis of 4-amino-4-deoxychorismate (ADC), a precursor of p- aminobenzoate (PABA) and tetrahydrofolate. In the first step, a glutamine amidotransferase (PabA) generates ammonia as a substrate that, along with chorismate, is used in the second step, catalyzed by aminodeoxychorismate synthase (PabB) to produce ADC. PabA converts glutamine into glutamate only in the presence of stoichiometric amounts of PabB. Also involved in the biosynthesis of anthranilate.

trpD
Indole-3-glycerol phosphate synthase; Catalyzes the transfer of the phosphoribosyl group of 5- phosphorylribose-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) to anthranilate to yield N-(5'- phosphoribosyl)-anthranilate (PRA).
 0.999
trpB
Tryptophan synthase (beta subunit); The beta subunit is responsible for the synthesis of L- tryptophan from indole and L-serine.
 
  
 0.998
trpA
Tryptophan synthase (alpha subunit); The alpha subunit is responsible for the aldol cleavage of indoleglycerol phosphate to indole and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate; Belongs to the TrpA family.
 
  
 0.996
trpF
Phosphoribosyl anthranilate isomerase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the TrpF family.
 
  
 0.996
aroF
Chorismate synthase; Catalyzes the anti-1,4-elimination of the C-3 phosphate and the C-6 proR hydrogen from 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate (EPSP) to yield chorismate, which is the branch point compound that serves as the starting substrate for the three terminal pathways of aromatic amino acid biosynthesis. This reaction introduces a second double bond into the aromatic ring system.
 
 
 0.990
aroH
Chorismate mutase; Catalyzes the Claisen rearrangement of chorismate to prephenate. Probably involved in the aromatic amino acid biosynthesis.
  
 
 0.976
aroX
3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the class-I DAHP synthase family.
  
 
 0.968
mtrB
Tryptophan operon RNA-binding attenuation protein (TRAP); Required for transcription attenuation control in the trp operon. This trans-acting factor binds to trinucleotide repeats (GAG or UAG) located in the trp leader transcript causing transcription termination. Binds the leader RNA only in presence of L-tryptophan. Belongs to the MtrB family.
     
 0.963
yszB
Conserved hypothetical protein containing an ACT domain; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 2537815; Belongs to the UPF0735 family.
