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.

pbuOHypoxanthine/guanine permease; Involved in the uptake of the purine bases hypoxanthine and guanine. May work at purine concentrations higher than 100 uM. (432 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
guaC
GMP reductase; Catalyzes the irreversible NADPH-dependent deamination of GMP to IMP. It functions in the conversion of nucleobase, nucleoside and nucleotide derivatives of G to A nucleotides, and in maintaining the intracellular balance of A and G nucleotides (Probable).
  
  
 0.955
pbuX
Xanthine permease; Transport of xanthine in the cell; Belongs to the xanthine/uracil permease family. Nucleobase:cation symporter-2 (NCS2) (TC 2.A.40) subfamily.
  
  
 0.921
xpt
Xanthine phosphoribosyltransferase; Converts the preformed base xanthine, a product of nucleic acid breakdown, to xanthosine 5'-monophosphate (XMP), so that it can be reused for RNA or DNA synthesis; Belongs to the purine/pyrimidine phosphoribosyltransferase family. Xpt subfamily.
  
  
 0.820
purR
Transcriptional regulator of the purine biosynthesis operon; Controls the transcription of the pur operon for purine biosynthetic genes, binds to the control region of the operon. DNA binding is inhibited by 5-phosphoribosyl 1-pyrophosphate; Belongs to the purine/pyrimidine phosphoribosyltransferase family.
  
  
 0.809
glyA
Serine hydroxymethyltransferase; Catalyzes the reversible interconversion of serine and glycine with tetrahydrofolate (THF) serving as the one-carbon carrier. This reaction serves as the major source of one-carbon groups required for the biosynthesis of purines, thymidylate, methionine, and other important biomolecules. Also exhibits THF-independent aldolase activity toward beta-hydroxyamino acids, producing glycine and aldehydes, via a retro-aldol mechanism (By similarity); Belongs to the SHMT family.
  
  
 0.808
folD
Methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the oxidation of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate and then the hydrolysis of 5,10- methenyltetrahydrofolate to 10-formyltetrahydrofolate.
   
  
 0.805
nusB
Transcription termination factor NusB; Involved in transcription antitermination. Required for transcription of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. Binds specifically to the boxA antiterminator sequence of the ribosomal RNA (rrn) operons.
  
  
 0.758
purA
Adenylosuccinate synthetase; Plays an important role in the de novo pathway of purine nucleotide biosynthesis. Catalyzes the first committed step in the biosynthesis of AMP from IMP; Belongs to the adenylosuccinate synthetase family.
  
  
 0.731
yabJ
Aminoacrylate/iminopropionate hydrolase/deaminase; Accelerates the release of ammonia from reactive enamine/imine intermediates of the PLP-dependent threonine dehydratase (IlvA) in the low water environment of the cell. It catalyzes the deamination of enamine/imine intermediates to yield 2-ketobutyrate and ammonia. It is required for the detoxification of reactive intermediates of IlvA due to their highly nucleophilic abilities. Involved in the isoleucine biosynthesis. May have a role in the purine metabolism; Belongs to the RutC family.
  
  
 0.641
ytjP
Putative dipeptidase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative enzyme.
       0.570
