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

lcfALong chain acyl-CoA ligase (degradative); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme. (560 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fadB
enoyl-CoA hydratase; Involved in the degradation of long-chain fatty acids.
 
 
 0.973
fadR
Transcriptional regulator of fatty acids degradation (TetR/AcrR family); Transcriptional regulator in fatty acid degradation. Represses transcription of genes required for fatty acid transport and beta-oxidation, including acdA, fadA, fadB, fadE, fadF, fadG, fadH, fadM, fadN, lcfA and lcfB. Binding of FadR to DNA is specifically inhibited by long chain fatty acyl-CoA compounds of 14-20 carbon atoms in length.
 
  
 0.972
fadN
enoyl-CoA hydratase / 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase; Involved in the degradation of long-chain fatty acids; Belongs to the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase family.
 
 
 0.972
etfB
Electron transfer flavoprotein (beta subunit); The electron transfer flavoprotein serves as a specific electron acceptor for other dehydrogenases. It transfers the electrons to the main respiratory chain via ETF-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETF dehydrogenase) (By similarity).
  
  
 0.949
etfA
Electron transfer flavoprotein (alpha subunit); The electron transfer flavoprotein serves as a specific electron acceptor for other dehydrogenases. It transfers the electrons to the main respiratory chain via ETF-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETF dehydrogenase) (By similarity).
  
  
 0.939
lcfB
Long-chain fatty-acid-CoA ligase (degradative); Involved in the degradation of long-chain fatty acids; Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.
  
 
0.935
pksN
Polyketide synthase of type I; Involved in some intermediate steps for the synthesis of the antibiotic polyketide bacillaene which is involved in secondary metabolism.
  
0.935
yhfT
Putative long-chain fatty-acid-CoA ligase; May be involved in fatty acid metabolism; Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.
  
  
0.931
fadE
acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (FAD dependent); Involved in the degradation of long-chain fatty acids.
 
 0.920
pksJ
Polyketide synthase of type I; Involved in some intermediate steps for the synthesis of the antibiotic polyketide bacillaene which is involved in secondary metabolism.
  
0.915
