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

mmgE2-methylcitrate dehydratase; Involved in both the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) and methylcitric acid cycles. Has both 2-methylcitrate dehydratase and citrate dehydratase activities. Catalyzes the dehydration of 2-methylcitrate (2-MC) to yield 2-methyl-cis-aconitate, and the dehydration of citrate to yield cis-aconitate. Cannot form isocitrate. Uses either (2S,3R)- or (2R,3S)-2-methylcitrate. (472 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
mmgF
2-methylisocitrate lyase; Involved in the methylcitric acid cycle. Catalyzes the cleavage of 2-methylisocitrate to yield pyruvate and succinate.
 
  
 0.999
mmgD
2-methylcitrate synthase/citrate synthase III; Involved in both the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) and methylcitric acid cycles. Has both 2-methylcitrate synthase and citrate synthase activities. Catalyzes the condensation of propionyl-CoA and oxaloacetate to yield 2-methylcitrate (2-MC) and CoA, and the condensation of acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate to yield citrate and CoA. Has 2.3-fold higher activity as a 2-methylcitrate synthase. Catalyzes the formation of either (2S,3R)- or (2R,3S)-2-methylcitrate.

citA
Citrate synthase I; Might regulate the synthesis and function of enzymes involved in later enzymatic steps of Krebs cycle. Loss in activity results in sporulation defect; Belongs to the citrate synthase family.
 
 0.911
mmgC
Short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family.
  
  
 0.870
prpC
Phosphorylated protein phosphatase; Protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates PrkC and EF-G (elongation factor G, fusA). prpC and prkC are cotranscribed, which suggests that they form a functional couple in vivo, PrpC's primary role being possibly to counter the action of PrkC. May be involved in sporulation and biofilm formation. Does not seem to be involved in stress response. Dephosphorylates phosphorylated CgsA, EF-Tu and YezB.
   
  
 0.851
mmgB
3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase family.
  
    0.848
mmgA
Degradative acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the thiolase-like superfamily. Thiolase family.
  
    0.829
citZ
Citrate synthase II; Might regulate the synthesis and function of enzymes involved in later enzymatic steps of Krebs cycle. Loss in activity results in sporulation defect; Belongs to the citrate synthase family.
  
 0.762
yngE
Putative methylcrotonoyl-CoA carboxylase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative enzyme; Belongs to the AccD/PCCB family.
  
    0.725
citB
Aconitate hydratase (aconitase); Involved in both the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) and methylcitric acid cycles. Catalyzes the reversible isomerization of citrate to isocitrate via cis-aconitate. Also catalyzes the rehydration of 2- methyl-cis-aconitate to produce 2-methylisocitrate. The apo form of AcnA functions as a RNA-binding regulatory protein which plays a role in the regulation of citrate concentration and in the sporulation. To prevent the accumulation of excessive levels of citrate, it binds near the 5' end of the citZ mRNA, decreasing its stability and thereby limiting the conce [...]
