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

nifHNitrogenase iron protein (nifH); The key enzymatic reactions in nitrogen fixation are catalyzed by the nitrogenase complex, which has 2 components: the iron protein and the molybdenum-iron protein. (279 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
glnA
Glutamine synthetase (glnA); Probably involved in nitrogen metabolism via ammonium assimilation. Catalyzes the ATP-dependent biosynthesis of glutamine from glutamate and ammonia. Beta-glutamate is a much poorer substrate than alpha-glutamate.
  
 
 0.984
cfbD
Vanadium nitrogenase-associated protein N; Involved in the biosynthesis of the unique nickel-containing tetrapyrrole coenzyme F430, the prosthetic group of methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR), which plays a key role in methanogenesis and anaerobic methane oxidation. Catalyzes both the six-electron reduction of the tetrahydroporphyrin ring system and the gamma-lactamization of the c- acetamide side chain of Ni-sirohydrochlorin a,c-diamide to yield 15,17(3)-seco-F430-17(3)-acid (seco-F430), the last intermediate in the biosynthesis of the coenzyme F430; Belongs to the NifD/NifK/NifE/NifN family.
  
 
 0.972
nifB
nifB protein (nifB); Involved in the biosynthesis of the iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMo-co or M-cluster) found in the dinitrogenase enzyme of the nitrogenase complex in nitrogen-fixing microorganisms. NifB catalyzes the crucial step of radical SAM-dependent carbide insertion that occurs concomitant with the insertion of a 9th sulfur and the rearrangement/coupling of two [4Fe-4S] clusters into a [8Fe-9S-C] cluster, the precursor to the M-cluster.
 
  
 0.948
hcp
[6Fe-6S] prismane-containing protein; Catalyzes the reduction of hydroxylamine to form NH(3) and H(2)O.
    
 0.907
nrpR
Conserved hypothetical protein; Transcriptional repressor of nitrogen fixation and assimilation genes. Binds to two tandem operators in the glnA and nif promoters, thereby blocking transcription of the genes. Belongs to the NrpR family.
      
 0.869
pdxT
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of glutamine to glutamate and ammonia as part of the biosynthesis of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. The resulting ammonia molecule is channeled to the active site of PdxS.
     
 0.827
MJ_0880
Conserved hypothetical protein; Similar to GB:AE000782 percent identity: 26.24; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
       0.734
bioD
Dethiobiotin synthetase (bioD); Catalyzes a mechanistically unusual reaction, the ATP- dependent insertion of CO2 between the N7 and N8 nitrogen atoms of 7,8- diaminopelargonic acid (DAPA) to form an ureido ring.
     
 0.725
hypB
Hydrogenase expression/formation protein (hypB); Involved in the maturation of [NiFe] hydrogenases. Required for nickel insertion into the metal center of the hydrogenase. Exhibits a low intrinsic GTPase activity, which is essential for nickel insertion; Belongs to the SIMIBI class G3E GTPase family. HypB/HupM subfamily.
     
 0.709
wtpA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex WtpABC involved in molybdate/tungstate import. Binds tungstate and molybdate (By similarity).
