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

kpsU3-deoxy-manno-octulosonate cytidylyltransferase; Activates KDO (a required 8-carbon sugar) for incorporation into bacterial lipopolysaccharide in Gram-negative bacteria. (234 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
aq_2171
Hypothetical protein.
  
 0.995
kdtA
3-deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid transferase; Involved in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthesis. Catalyzes the transfer of a single 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate (Kdo) residue from CMP-Kdo to lipid IV(A), the tetraacyldisaccharide-1,4'- bisphosphate precursor of lipid A. Is strictly monofunctional, i.e. is capable of adding only a single Kdo residue to the acceptor lipid. Belongs to the glycosyltransferase group 1 family. Glycosyltransferase 30 subfamily.
 
  
 0.983
kdsA
3-deoxy-d-manno-octulosonic acid 8-phosphate synthase.
 
   
 0.973
kpsF
Polysialic acid capsule expression protein; Belongs to the SIS family. GutQ/KpsF subfamily.
 
   
 0.885
pheA
Chorismate mutase/prephenate dehydratase; Catalyzes the Claisen rearrangement of chorismate to prephenate and the decarboxylation/dehydration of prephenate to phenylpyruvate.
      0.861
lpxK
Hypothetical protein; Transfers the gamma-phosphate of ATP to the 4'-position of a tetraacyldisaccharide 1-phosphate intermediate (termed DS-1-P) to form tetraacyldisaccharide 1,4'-bis-phosphate (lipid IVA).
 
   
 0.837
lpxB
Lipid A disaccharide synthetase; Condensation of UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine and 2,3- diacylglucosamine-1-phosphate to form lipid A disaccharide, a precursor of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell.
 
   
 0.713
envA
UDP-3-0-acyl N-acetylglcosamine deacetylase; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of UDP-3-O-myristoyl-N- acetylglucosamine to form UDP-3-O-myristoylglucosamine and acetate, the committed step in lipid A biosynthesis; Belongs to the LpxC family.
 
   
 0.709
lpxA
acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]-UDP-N- acetylglucosamine acyltransferase; Involved in the biosynthesis of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell.
 
   
 0.707
lpxD
UDP-3-O-[3-hydroxymyristoyl] glucosamine N acyltransferase; Catalyzes the N-acylation of UDP-3-O-acylglucosamine using 3- hydroxyacyl-ACP as the acyl donor. Is involved in the biosynthesis of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell. Belongs to the transferase hexapeptide repeat family. LpxD subfamily.
