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

cmhRProbable metCcysK operon transcriptional activator; Belongs to the LysR transcriptional regulatory family. (302 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
metN
Polar amino acid ABC uptake transporter ATP binding protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex MetNIQ involved in methionine import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system.
   
 
 0.777
metF
5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase; Belongs to the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase family.
 
  
 0.698
metE
5-methyl tetrahydropteroyltriglutamate -- homocysteine methyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from 5- methyltetrahydrofolate to homocysteine resulting in methionine formation; Belongs to the vitamin-B12 independent methionine synthase family.
 
  
 0.653
metK
S-adenosylmethionine synthetase; Catalyzes the formation of S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) from methionine and ATP. The overall synthetic reaction is composed of two sequential steps, AdoMet formation and the subsequent tripolyphosphate hydrolysis which occurs prior to release of AdoMet from the enzyme.
  
  
 0.628
pfs
MTA/SAH nucleosidase (5'-methylthioadenosine/S-adenosylhomocysteine nucleosidase); Catalyzes the irreversible cleavage of the glycosidic bond in both 5'-methylthioadenosine (MTA) and S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH/AdoHcy) to adenine and the corresponding thioribose, 5'- methylthioribose and S-ribosylhomocysteine, respectively. Belongs to the PNP/UDP phosphorylase family. MtnN subfamily.
     
 0.627
folD
Methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase / methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase; Catalyzes the oxidation of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate and then the hydrolysis of 5,10- methenyltetrahydrofolate to 10-formyltetrahydrofolate.
      
 0.611
glmS
Glucosamine--fructose-6-phosphate aminotransferase [isomerizing]; Catalyzes the first step in hexosamine metabolism, converting fructose-6P into glucosamine-6P using glutamine as a nitrogen source.
     
 0.543
luxS
Autoinducer-2 production protein; Involved in the synthesis of autoinducer 2 (AI-2) which is secreted by bacteria and is used to communicate both the cell density and the metabolic potential of the environment. The regulation of gene expression in response to changes in cell density is called quorum sensing. Catalyzes the transformation of S-ribosylhomocysteine (RHC) to homocysteine (HC) and 4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentadione (DPD). Belongs to the LuxS family.
     
 0.535
fhs
Formate-tetrahydrofolate ligase; Belongs to the formate--tetrahydrofolate ligase family.
     
 0.516
rpoE
DNA-directed RNA polymerase delta subunit; Participates in both the initiation and recycling phases of transcription. In the presence of the delta subunit, RNAP displays an increased specificity of transcription, a decreased affinity for nucleic acids, and an increased efficiency of RNA synthesis because of enhanced recycling; Belongs to the RpoE family.
