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

yuaCPutative 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. (180 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.
 
  
 0.955
gbsB
Choline dehydrogenase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the osmoprotectant glycine betaine from choline; Belongs to the iron-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family.
 
  
 0.931
opuBC
Choline ABC transporter (choline-binding lipoprotein); Member of a high affinity multicomponent binding-protein- dependent transport system for choline.
  
  
 0.910
opuBD
Choline ABC transporter (permease); Involved in a high affinity multicomponent binding-protein- dependent transport system for choline; probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
  
  
 0.716
opuBA
Choline ABC transporter (ATP-binding protein); Involved in a high affinity multicomponent binding-protein- dependent transport system for choline. Probably responsible for energy coupling to the transport system.
  
  
 0.659
cydC
ABC membrane transporter (ATP-binding protein) required for cytochrome bb' function; Somehow involved in the cytochrome D branch of aerobic respiration. Seems to be a component of a transport system (By similarity); Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Cysteine exporter (TC 3.A.1.129.1) family.
     
 0.627
opuCC
Glycine betaine/carnitine/choline-binding protein OpuCC; Member of a high affinity multicomponent binding-protein- dependent transport system for glycine betaine, carnitine, and choline. Belongs to the OsmX family.
  
  
 0.619
ycbP
Putative inner integral membrane protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pm: putative membrane component.
  
     0.590
yocB
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
     0.572
yndM
Putative integral inner membrane protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pm: putative membrane component.
