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

acuAProtein acetyltransferase; Part of the acuABC operon, which is possibly involved in the breakdown of acetoin and butanediol. Acts as an acetyltransferase inactivating acetyl-CoA synthetase AcsA via acetylation at a Lys residue. (210 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
acuC
Protein deacetylase; Role in growth and sporulation on acetoin or butanediol. Involved in the breakdown of these compounds used as a carbon source; Belongs to the histone deacetylase family.
  
 0.999
acsA
acetyl-CoA synthetase; Catalyzes the conversion of acetate into acetyl-CoA (AcCoA), an essential intermediate at the junction of anabolic and catabolic pathways. AcsA undergoes a two-step reaction. In the first half reaction, AcsA combines acetate with ATP to form acetyl-adenylate (AcAMP) intermediate. In the second half reaction, it can then transfer the acetyl group from AcAMP to the sulfhydryl group of CoA, forming the product AcCoA (By similarity). Has a role in growth and sporulation on acetate.
 
  
 0.988
acuB
Component of the acetoin degradation regulation pathway; Role in growth and sporulation on acetoin or butanediol. Involved in the breakdown of these compounds used as a carbon source.
 
  
 0.975
yybD
Putative acetyltransferase; Could catalyze the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) to an acceptor substrate and release both CoA and the acetylated product.
      
 0.921
srtN
Sirtuin NAD-dependent deacetylase; NAD-dependent protein deacetylase which modulates the activities of several enzymes which are inactive in their acetylated form; Belongs to the sirtuin family. Class U subfamily.
     
 0.920
rimI
Ribosomal protein S18 alanine N-acetyltransferase; Acetylates the N-terminal alanine of ribosomal protein S18.
  
  
 0.850
ytcI
Putative acyl-coenzyme A synthetase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme; Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.
 
  
 0.804
yfiQ
Putative membrane component involved in biofilm formation; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme.
      
 0.755
yqgY
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
    0.741
yuiB
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
