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

gbsBCholine dehydrogenase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the osmoprotectant glycine betaine from choline; Belongs to the iron-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family. (402 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
gbsA
Glycine betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase, NAD+-dependent; Involved in the biosynthesis of the osmoprotectant glycine betaine from choline. Catalyzes the oxidation of betaine aldehyde to betaine. Shows specificity for betaine aldehyde as substrate. Can use both NAD(+) and NADP(+), but NAD(+) is strongly preferred.
 
 0.999
yuaC
Putative transcriptional regulator; Negatively regulates the expression of the gbsAB and opuB operons. Required to control expression of these genes in response to choline availability. Also required to downregulate glycine betaine production once cellular adjustment to high osmolarity has been achieved; Belongs to the GbsR family.
 
  
 0.931
adhA
Putative dehydrogenase; Functions in the protection against aldehyde-stress. Belongs to the zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family.
  
 
 0.841
psd
Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase; Catalyzes the formation of phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn) from phosphatidylserine (PtdSer); Belongs to the phosphatidylserine decarboxylase family. PSD-B subfamily. Prokaryotic type I sub-subfamily.
     
  0.800
opuD
Glycine betaine transporter; High-affinity uptake of glycine betaine. Does not mediate either carnitine or choline uptake; Belongs to the BCCT transporter (TC 2.A.15) family.
   
  
 0.765
glgA
Bacterial glycogen (starch) synthase; Synthesizes alpha-1,4-glucan chains using ADP-glucose; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 1 family. Bacterial/plant glycogen synthase subfamily.
   
  
 0.763
opuBC
Choline ABC transporter (choline-binding lipoprotein); Member of a high affinity multicomponent binding-protein- dependent transport system for choline.
   
  
 0.746
pckA
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase; Involved in the gluconeogenesis. Catalyzes the conversion of oxaloacetate (OAA) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) through direct phosphoryl transfer between the nucleoside triphosphate and OAA.
   
  
 0.588
yvbF
Putative transcriptional regulator; Negatively regulates the transcription of the opuC operon. In the absence of GbsR, is also a negative regulator of the opuB operon. Binds to an inverted repeat in the promoter region of the operons.
 
  
 0.571
yuaD
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 11886751.
  
    0.547
