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

metGmethionine--tRNA ligase; Is required not only for elongation of protein synthesis but also for the initiation of all mRNA translation through initiator tRNA(fMet) aminoacylation. (659 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pheS
phenylalanine--tRNA ligase, 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.
  
 0.995
leuS
leucine--tRNA ligase; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF00133; match to protein family HMM PF08264; match to protein family HMM PF09334; match to protein family HMM TIGR00396; Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
 
0.995
pheT
phenylalanine--tRNA ligase, beta subunit; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF01588; match to protein family HMM PF03147; match to protein family HMM PF03483; match to protein family HMM PF03484; match to protein family HMM TIGR00472; Belongs to the phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase beta subunit family. Type 1 subfamily.
  
 
 0.975
gltX
Putative glutamate--tRNA ligase; Catalyzes the attachment of glutamate to tRNA(Glu) in a two- step reaction: glutamate is first activated by ATP to form Glu-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Glu); Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Glutamate--tRNA ligase type 1 subfamily.
  
 0.969
proS
proline--tRNA ligase; 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).
  
 0.968
ileS
isoleucine--tRNA ligase; 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.
  
0.966
argS
arginine--tRNA ligase; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF00750; match to protein family HMM PF03485; match to protein family HMM PF05746; match to protein family HMM TIGR00456.
  
 0.958
aspS
Nucleic acid-binding domain protein; Catalyzes the attachment of L-aspartate to tRNA(Asp) in a two-step reaction: L-aspartate is first activated by ATP to form Asp- AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Asp). Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. Type 2 subfamily.
 
 0.946
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.
     
 0.942
lysS
lysine--tRNA ligase; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF00152; match to protein family HMM PF00587; match to protein family HMM PF01336; match to protein family HMM TIGR00499; Belongs to the class-II aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family.
