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

aksF3-isopropylmalate dehydrogenase 2 (leuB2); Catalyzes the NAD-dependent oxidation and decarboxylation of (2R,3S)-homoisocitrate ((1R,2S)-1-hydroxybutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylate), (2R,3S)-homo(2)-isocitrate and (2R,3S)-homo(3)-isocitrate, into 2- oxoadipate, 2-oxopimelate, and 2-oxosuberate, respectively. This last compound is a precursor to coenzyme B and biotin in methanoarchaea. Is also able to produce 2-oxoazelate from (2R,3S)-homo(4)-isocitrate. Is not able to use NADP as an oxidant. (347 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
hacA
3-isopropylmalate dehydratase (leuC); Hydro-lyase with broad substrate specificity for cis- unsaturated tricarboxylic acids. Catalyzes both the reversible dehydration of (R)-homocitrate ((R)-2-hydroxybutane-1,2,4- tricarboxylate) to produce cis-homoaconitate ((Z)-but-1-ene-1,2,4- tricarboxylate), and its hydration to homoisocitrate ((1R,2S)-1- hydroxybutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylate). Is also able to hydrate the analogous longer chain substrates cis-homo(2)-aconitate, cis-homo(3)- aconitate, and even the non-physiological cis-homo(4)-aconitate with similar efficiency. These reactions are pa [...]

hacB
3-isopropylmalate dehydratase (leuD); Hydro-lyase with broad substrate specificity for cis- unsaturated tricarboxylic acids. Catalyzes both the reversible dehydration of (R)-homocitrate ((R)-2-hydroxybutane-1,2,4- tricarboxylate) to produce cis-homoaconitate ((Z)-but-1-ene-1,2,4- tricarboxylate), and its hydration to homoisocitrate ((1R,2S)-1- hydroxybutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylate). Is also able to hydrate the analogous longer chain substrates cis-homo(2)-aconitate, cis-homo(3)- aconitate, and even the non-physiological cis-homo(4)-aconitate with similar efficiency.

aksA
2-isopropylmalate synthase (leuA); Catalyzes the condensation of alpha-ketoglutarate and acetyl- CoA to form trans-homoaconitate. Can also catalyze the condensation of alpha-ketoadipate with acetyl-CoA to form (R)-homo(2)citrate, and the condensation of alpha-ketopimelate with acetyl-CoA to form (R)- homo(3)citrate; Belongs to the alpha-IPM synthase/homocitrate synthase family.

leuC
3-isopropylmalate dehydratase (leuC); Enzyme with broad specificity that catalyzes reversible hydroxyacid isomerizations via dehydration/hydration reactions. Catalyzes the isomerization between 2-isopropylmalate and 3- isopropylmalate, via the formation of 2-isopropylmaleate, a step involved in leucine biosynthesis. Catalyzes the isomerization between 2-methylmalate and 3-methylmalate, via the formation of 2-methylmaleate (citraconate), a step involved in isoleucine biosynthesis. Also displays malease activity, i.e. catalyzes the hydration of maleate to form (R)-malate; Belongs to the [...]

ilvC
Ketol-acid reductoisomerase (ilvC); Involved in the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA). Catalyzes an alkyl-migration followed by a ketol-acid reduction of (S)-2-acetolactate (S2AL) to yield (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate. In the isomerase reaction, S2AL is rearranged via a Mg-dependent methyl migration to produce 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-ketobutyrate (HMKB). In the reductase reaction, this 2-ketoacid undergoes a metal-dependent reduction by NADPH to yield (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate.

3-isopropylmalate dehydratase (leuD); Enzyme with broad specificity that catalyzes reversible hydroxyacid isomerizations via dehydration/hydration reactions. Catalyzes the isomerization between 2-isopropylmalate and 3- isopropylmalate, via the formation of 2-isopropylmaleate, a step involved in leucine biosynthesis. Catalyzes the isomerization between 2-methylmalate and 3-methylmalate, via the formation of 2-methylmaleate (citraconate), a step involved in isoleucine biosynthesis. Also displays malease activity, i.e. catalyzes the hydration of maleate to form (R)-malate.

sucC
succinyl-CoA synthetase, beta subunit; Succinyl-CoA synthetase functions in the citric acid cycle (TCA), coupling the hydrolysis of succinyl-CoA to the synthesis of either ATP or GTP and thus represents the only step of substrate-level phosphorylation in the TCA. The beta subunit provides nucleotide specificity of the enzyme and binds the substrate succinate, while the binding sites for coenzyme A and phosphate are found in the alpha subunit.
