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

eifInitiation factor eIF-2B alpha subunit; Catalyzes the interconversion of methylthioribose-1-phosphate (MTR-1-P) into methylthioribulose-1-phosphate (MTRu-1-P). (456 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fucA2
Fuculose-1-phosphate aldolase; Catalyzes the dehydration of methylthioribulose-1-phosphate (MTRu-1-P) into 2,3-diketo-5-methylthiopentyl-1-phosphate (DK-MTP-1-P). Belongs to the aldolase class II family. MtnB subfamily.
 
 0.999
deoD
Purine nucleoside phosphorylase; Purine nucleoside phosphorylase which is highly specific for 6-oxopurine nucleosides. Cleaves guanosine or inosine to respective bases and sugar-1-phosphate molecules. Involved in purine salvage.
 
 
 0.970
mtnD
Hypothetical protein; Catalyzes 2 different reactions between oxygene and the acireductone 1,2-dihydroxy-3-keto-5-methylthiopentene (DHK-MTPene) depending upon the metal bound in the active site. Fe-containing acireductone dioxygenase (Fe-ARD) produces formate and 2-keto-4- methylthiobutyrate (KMTB), the alpha-ketoacid precursor of methionine in the methionine recycle pathway. Ni-containing acireductone dioxygenase (Ni-ARD) produces methylthiopropionate, carbon monoxide and formate, and does not lie on the methionine recycle pathway.
 
 
 0.942
masA
Enolase-phosphatase E-1; Bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the enolization of 2,3- diketo-5-methylthiopentyl-1-phosphate (DK-MTP-1-P) into the intermediate 2-hydroxy-3-keto-5-methylthiopentenyl-1-phosphate (HK- MTPenyl-1-P), which is then dephosphorylated to form the acireductone 1,2-dihydroxy-3-keto-5-methylthiopentene (DHK-MTPene). Belongs to the HAD-like hydrolase superfamily. MasA/MtnC family.
 
  
 0.851
cbbE2
Ribulose-5-phosphate 3-epimerase; Catalyzes the reversible epimerization of D-ribulose 5- phosphate to D-xylulose 5-phosphate; Belongs to the ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase family.
  
   0.790
rfaG
Glucosyl transferase I.
  
    0.769
plsX
PlsX protein; Catalyzes the reversible formation of acyl-phosphate (acyl- PO(4)) from acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] (acyl-ACP). This enzyme utilizes acyl-ACP as fatty acyl donor, but not acyl-CoA.
  
  
 0.687
fucA1
Fuculose-1-phosphate aldolase.
 
  
 0.623
ribH
Riboflavin synthase beta subunit; Catalyzes the formation of 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine by condensation of 5-amino-6-(D-ribitylamino)uracil with 3,4-dihydroxy-2- butanone 4-phosphate. This is the penultimate step in the biosynthesis of riboflavin.
  
   0.596
hoxX
Hydrogenase regulation HoxX; Belongs to the enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase family.
  
 
 0.573
