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

metQ
Methionine ABC transporter, substrate binding lipoprotein; Part of the ABC transporter complex MetNPQ involved in methionine import. Binds the methionine and transfers it to the membrane-bound permease. It has also been shown to be involved in methionine sulfoxide transport (Probable); Belongs to the NlpA lipoprotein family.
       0.570
metN
Methionine ABC transporter (ATP-binding protein); Part of the ABC transporter complex MetNPQ involved in methionine import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system (Probable). It has also been shown to be involved in methionine sulfoxide transport. Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Methionine importer (TC 3.A.1.24) family.
       0.569
metP
Methionine ABC transporter, permease component; Part of the ABC transporter complex MetNPQ involved in methionine import. Responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane (Probable). It has also been shown to be involved in methionine sulfoxide transport; Belongs to the binding-protein-dependent transport system permease family. CysTW subfamily.
       0.568
yitF
Putative enolase superfamily enzyme; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme; Belongs to the mandelate racemase/muconate lactonizing enzyme family.
  
  
 0.561
ycgH
