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

metGmethionyl-tRNA synthetase; Is required not only for elongation of protein synthesis but also for the initiation of all mRNA translation through initiator tRNA(fMet) aminoacylation. (703 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pheS
phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase, alpha subunit; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF01409; match to protein family HMM PF02912; match to protein family HMM TIGR00468; Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Phe-tRNA synthetase alpha subunit type 1 subfamily.
  
 
 0.970
leuS
leucyl-tRNA synthetase; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF00133; match to protein family HMM TIGR00396; Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
  
0.950
leuS-2
leucyl-tRNA synthetase; Identified by similarity to SP:P07813; match to protein family HMM PF00133; match to protein family HMM TIGR00396; Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
  
0.950
asnS
asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase; Identified by similarity to SP:P17242; match to protein family HMM PF00152; match to protein family HMM PF01336; match to protein family HMM TIGR00457.
  
 0.940
metH
5-methyltetrahydrofolate--homocysteine methyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from methyl- cobalamin to homocysteine, yielding enzyme-bound cob(I)alamin and methionine. Subsequently, remethylates the cofactor using methyltetrahydrofolate.
  
 
 0.936
MXAN_0837
Formyltransferase; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF00551.
  
 
 0.933
fmt
methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase; Attaches a formyl group to the free amino group of methionyl- tRNA(fMet). The formyl group appears to play a dual role in the initiator identity of N-formylmethionyl-tRNA by promoting its recognition by IF2 and preventing the misappropriation of this tRNA by the elongation apparatus; Belongs to the Fmt family.
  
 
 0.933
MXAN_2035
Cys/Met metabolism PLP-dependent enzyme; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF01053.
   
 
 0.927
proS
prolyl-tRNA synthetase; Catalyzes the attachment of proline to tRNA(Pro) in a two- step reaction: proline is first activated by ATP to form Pro-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Pro).
  
 0.909
ileS-2
Putative isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, mupirocin resistant; Catalyzes the attachment of isoleucine to tRNA(Ile). As IleRS can inadvertently accommodate and process structurally similar amino acids such as valine, to avoid such errors it has two additional distinct tRNA(Ile)-dependent editing activities. One activity is designated as 'pretransfer' editing and involves the hydrolysis of activated Val-AMP. The other activity is designated 'posttransfer' editing and involves deacylation of mischarged Val-tRNA(Ile). Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. IleS type 2 subfamily.
