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

menFMenaquinone-specific isochorismate synthase; Catalyzes the conversion of chorismate to isochorismate. (471 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
menD
2-succinyl-5-enolpyruvyl-6-hydroxy-3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylate synthase; Catalyzes the thiamine diphosphate-dependent decarboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate and the subsequent addition of the resulting succinic semialdehyde-thiamine pyrophosphate anion to isochorismate to yield 2- succinyl-5-enolpyruvyl-6-hydroxy-3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylate (SEPHCHC).
 
 0.999
dhbB
Isochorismatase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme.
 
 0.998
menB
Dihydroxynapthoic acid synthetase; Converts o-succinylbenzoyl-CoA (OSB-CoA) to 1,4-dihydroxy-2- naphthoyl-CoA (DHNA-CoA).
 
  
 0.992
menH-2
Putative 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate synthase; Catalyzes a proton abstraction reaction that results in 2,5- elimination of pyruvate from 2-succinyl-5-enolpyruvyl-6-hydroxy-3- cyclohexene-1-carboxylate (SEPHCHC) and the formation of 2-succinyl-6- hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate (SHCHC).
  
 0.972
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.
 
  
 0.971
dhbC
Isochorismate synthase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the isochorismate synthase family.
  
  
0.941
menC
O-succinylbenzoate-CoA synthase; Converts 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1- carboxylate (SHCHC) to 2-succinylbenzoate (OSB).
 
   
 0.939
aroC
3-dehydroquinate dehydratase; Involved in the third step of the chorismate pathway, which leads to the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids. Catalyzes the cis- dehydration of 3-dehydroquinate (DHQ) and introduces the first double bond of the aromatic ring to yield 3-dehydroshikimate. Belongs to the type-I 3-dehydroquinase family.
     
 0.936
aroD
Shikimate 5-dehydrogenase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the chorismate, which leads to the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids. Catalyzes the reversible NADPH linked reduction of 3-dehydroshikimate (DHSA) to yield shikimate (SA).
  
 
 0.915
menH
Menaquinone methyltransferase; Methyltransferase required for the conversion of demethylmenaquinol (DMKH2) to menaquinol (MKH2).
  
  
 0.907
