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

lysADiaminopimelate decarboxylase; Specifically catalyzes the decarboxylation of meso- diaminopimelate (meso-DAP) to L-lysine. (386 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dapF
Diaminopimelate epimerase; Catalyzes the stereoinversion of LL-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate (L,L-DAP) to meso-diaminoheptanedioate (meso-DAP), a precursor of L- lysine and an essential component of the bacterial peptidoglycan. Also catalyzes the racemization of certain amino acids, including Lys, with low efficiency. Belongs to the diaminopimelate epimerase family.
 
 0.999
murE
UDP-N-acetylmuramoylalanyl-D-glutamate--2, 6-diaminopimelate ligase; Catalyzes the addition of both L- and D-lysine to the nucleotide precursor UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate (UMAG) in the biosynthesis of bacterial cell-wall peptidoglycan. Is also able to use meso-diaminopimelate as the amino acid substrate in vitro, although much less efficiently; Belongs to the MurCDEF family. MurE subfamily.
     
 0.992
TM_1518
Aspartokinase II; Similar to PID:928811 SP:P53553 percent identity: 64.96; identified by sequence similarity; putative; Belongs to the aspartokinase family.
  
 0.991
dapA
Dihydrodipicolinate synthase; Catalyzes the condensation of (S)-aspartate-beta-semialdehyde [(S)-ASA] and pyruvate to 4-hydroxy-tetrahydrodipicolinate (HTPA).
  
 0.978
dapB
Dihydrodipicolinate reductase; Catalyzes the conversion of 4-hydroxy-tetrahydrodipicolinate (HTPA) to tetrahydrodipicolinate (Probable). Uses NADPH as a reductant with much more efficiency than NADH; Belongs to the DapB family.
 
 
 0.958
TM_1523
Aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase; Similar to GB:AE000657 percent identity: 69.47; identified by sequence similarity; putative; Belongs to the aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase family.
 
 
 0.909
dapH
2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridine-2-carboxylate N-succinyltransferase-related protein; Catalyzes the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl-CoA to tetrahydrodipicolinate.
 
  
 0.879
TM_1516
Hydrolase, ama/hipO/hyuC family; Similar to GB:AL009126 percent identity: 57.63; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
 
   
 0.873
TM_0547
Aspartokinase II; Similar to PID:928811 SP:P53553 percent identity: 67.00; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
 
 0.872
TM_1515
Ferric uptake regulation protein; Similar to PID:1652859 percent identity: 59.70; identified by sequence similarity; putative; Belongs to the Fur family.
