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.

ilvKBranched-chain amino acid aminotransferase; Transaminates branched-chain amino acids and ketoglutarate. Belongs to the class-IV pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. (363 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ilvD
Dihydroxy-acid dehydratase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the IlvD/Edd family.
  
 0.985
ilvA
Threonine dehydratase; Catalyzes the anaerobic formation of alpha-ketobutyrate and ammonia from threonine in a two-step reaction. The first step involved a dehydration of threonine and a production of enamine intermediates (aminocrotonate), which tautomerizes to its imine form (iminobutyrate). Both intermediates are unstable and short-lived. The second step is the nonenzymatic hydrolysis of the enamine/imine intermediates to form 2- ketobutyrate and free ammonia. In the low water environment of the cell, the second step is accelerated by RidA (By similarity).
  
 0.982
leuA
2-isopropylmalate synthase; Catalyzes the condensation of the acetyl group of acetyl-CoA with 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate (2-oxoisovalerate) to form 3-carboxy-3- hydroxy-4-methylpentanoate (2-isopropylmalate); Belongs to the alpha-IPM synthase/homocitrate synthase family. LeuA type 1 subfamily.
  
 0.974
bcd
Branched-chain amino acid dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the reversible deamination of L-leucine to 4- methyl-2-oxopentanoate.
  
 
 0.955
metI
Cystathionine gamma-synthase and O-acetylhomoserine thiolyase; Catalyzes the formation of L-cystathionine from O-acetyl-L- homoserine and L-cysteine. Cannot use O-succinyl-L-homoserine as substrate. Also exhibits O-acetylhomoserine thiolyase activity, catalyzing the synthesis of L-homocysteine from O-acetyl-L-homoserine and sulfide.
   
 0.918
bkdAB
Branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase E1 subunit; The branched-chain alpha-keto dehydrogenase complex catalyzes the overall conversion of alpha-keto acids to acyl-CoA and CO(2). It contains multiple copies of three enzymatic components: branched-chain alpha-keto acid decarboxylase (E1), lipoamide acyltransferase (E2) and lipoamide dehydrogenase (E3).
   
 0.916
hom
Homoserine dehydrogenase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme.
 
 
 0.915
panB
Ketopantoate hydroxymethyltransferase; Catalyzes the reversible reaction in which hydroxymethyl group from 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate is transferred onto alpha- ketoisovalerate to form ketopantoate; Belongs to the PanB family.
  
 
 0.912
mccB
Cystathionine gamma-lyase and homocysteine gamma-lyase for reverse transsulfuration pathway; Catalyzes the conversion of cystathionine to cysteine, and homocysteine to sulfide.
   
 0.912
ilvE
Ketomethiobutyrate-branched-chain/aromatic amino acid aminotransferase; Transaminates branched-chain amino acids and ketoglutarate. Involved in the final step of the methionine regeneration pathway, where ketomethiobutyrate (KMTB) is converted to methionine via a transamination. The amino donor preference is isoleucine, leucine, valine, phenylalanine, and tyrosine; Belongs to the class-IV pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
