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.

dhbE2,3-dihydroxybenzoate-AMP ligase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the catecholic siderophore bacillibactin. Catalyzes the activation of the carboxylate group of 2,3-dihydroxy-benzoate (DHB), via ATP-dependent PPi exchange reactions, to the acyladenylate. (539 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dhbF
Siderophore 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate-glycine-threonine trimeric ester bacillibactin synthetase; Specifically adenylates threonine and glycine, and loads them onto their corresponding peptidyl carrier domains.

dhbB
Isochorismatase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme.
 0.999
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.
  
 0.999
dhbA
2,3-dihydro-2,3-dihydroxybenzoate dehydrogenase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.

ybdZ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 11112781.
 
  
 0.998
besA
Bacillibactin trilactone hydrolase; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the trilactone cycle of ferri- bacillibactin (ferri-BB) complex, leading to the formation of bacillibactin monomers and to cytosolic iron release, thus making iron available for metabolic use. Can also hydrolyze bacillibactin (BB), however the catalytic efficiency for ferri-BB hydrolysis is much higher than for BB.

srfAC
Surfactin synthetase; Probably activates a leucine.
 
  
0.982
ppsE
Plipastatin synthetase; This protein is a multifunctional enzyme, able to activate and polymerize the amino acid Ile as part of the biosynthesis of the lipopeptide antibiotic plipastatin. The activation sites for this amino acid consist of individual domains; Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.
 
  
0.964
dltA
D-alanine:D-alanyl-carrier protein ligase; Catalyzes the first step in the D-alanylation of lipoteichoic acid (LTA), the activation of D-alanine and its transfer onto the D- alanyl carrier protein (Dcp) DltC. In an ATP-dependent two-step reaction, forms a high energy D-alanyl-AMP intermediate, followed by transfer of the D-alanyl residue as a thiol ester to the phosphopantheinyl prosthetic group of the Dcp. D-alanylation of LTA plays an important role in modulating the properties of the cell wall in Gram-positive bacteria, influencing the net charge of the cell wall. Belongs to the ATP [...]

srfAB
Surfactin synthetase; This protein is a multifunctional enzyme able to activate and polymerize the amino acids Leu, Glu, Asp and Val. Activation sites for these AA consist of individual domains.
