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

tagEUDP-glucose:polyglycerol phosphate alpha-glucosyltransferase; Catalyzes the addition of glucose to the C-2 hydroxy group of the glycerol units in teichoic acid. (673 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
tagF
Teichoic acid poly(glycerol phosphate) polymerase; Responsible for the polymerization of the main chain of the major teichoic acid by sequential transfer of glycerol phosphate units from CDP-glycerol to the disaccharide linkage unit. Synthesizes polymers of approximately 35 glycerol phosphate units in length.
  
  
 0.993
tagB
Teichoic acid glycerol-phosphate primase; Catalyzes the addition of a single glycerol phosphate residue to the prenoldiphosphate-linked disaccharide, as a primer for polymerisation by TagF; Belongs to the CDP-glycerol glycerophosphotransferase family.
  
  
 0.972
tagA
N-acetylglucosaminyldiphosphoundecaprenol N-acetyl-beta-D-mannosaminyltransferase; Catalyzes the conversion of GlcNAc-PP-undecaprenol into ManNAc-GlcNAc-PP-undecaprenol, the first committed lipid intermediate in the de novo synthesis of teichoic acid. Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 26 family. TagA/TarA subfamily.
  
 
 0.963
tagD
Glycerol-3-phosphate cytidylyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of the cytidylyl group of CTP to sn- glycerol 3-phosphate so the activated glycerol 3-phosphate can be used for teichoic acid synthesis, via incorporation into both the linkage unit and the teichoic acid polymer by TagB and TagF. Belongs to the cytidylyltransferase family.
  
  
 0.949
gtaB
UTP-glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase; Catalyzes the formation of UDP-glucose from glucose-1- phosphate and UTP. This is an intermediate step in the biosynthesis of diglucosyl-diacylglycerol (Glc2-DAG), i.e. the predominant glycolipid found in B.subtilis membrane, which is also used as a membrane anchor for lipoteichoic acid (LTA). Has a role in the biosynthesis of all phosphate-containing envelope polymers, since UDP-glucose serves as a glucosyl donor not only for the biosynthesis of LTA but also for wall teichoic acids (WTAs). Is required for biofilm formation. This is likely d [...]
     
 0.913
tagO
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:undecaprenyl-P N-acetylglucosaminyl-1-P transferase; Catalyzes the formation of undecaprenyl-PP-N- acetylglucosamine. Involved in the synthesis of anionic cell-wall polymers as it mediates the initiation of the linkage unit formation that appears to be common to the two types of teichoic acids attached to the peptidoglycan of B.subtilis; may also be involved in teichuronic acid biosynthesis (Probable); Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 4 family.
  
  
 0.856
tagG
Teichoic acid precursors permease; Part of the ABC transporter complex TagGH (TC 3.A.1.34.1) involved in exporting the two types of intracellularly synthesized teichoic acids. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane; Belongs to the ABC-2 integral membrane protein family.
  
  
 0.846
tagH
Teichoic acids export ATP-binding protein TagH; Part of the ABC transporter complex TagGH involved in teichoic acids export. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system.
  
 
 0.834
ykcC
Putative glycosyltransferase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme.
  
 
 0.715
yngA
Putative conserved 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.
