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

Score
ML0513Conserved hypothetical protein; Could be a nuclease involved in processing of the 5'-end of pre-16S rRNA; Belongs to the YqgF nuclease family. (184 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
alaS
alanyl-tRNA synthetase; Catalyzes the attachment of alanine to tRNA(Ala) in a two- step reaction: alanine is first activated by ATP to form Ala-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Ala). Also edits incorrectly charged Ser-tRNA(Ala) and Gly-tRNA(Ala) via its editing domain.

aroE
Similar to M. tuberculosis aroE, Rv2552c, shikimate 5-dehydrogenase, TR:P95001 (EMBL:AL123456) (269 aa); Fasta score E(): 0, 81.5% identity in 270 aa overlap. Similar to many e.g. Neisseria meningitidis aroE, shikimate dehydrogenase, TR:P95388 (EMBL:U82841) (269 aa); Fasta score E(): 2.5e-12, 29.6% identity in 274 aa overlap. Contains Pfam match to entry PF01488 Shikimate_DH, Shikimate / quinate 5-dehydrogenase.
  
    0.868
ML0514
Putative membrane protein; Functions as a peptidoglycan terminase that cleaves nascent peptidoglycan strands endolytically to terminate their elongation. Belongs to the transglycosylase MltG family.
  
    0.867
xerC
Integrase/recombinase; Site-specific tyrosine recombinase, which acts by catalyzing the cutting and rejoining of the recombining DNA molecules. The XerC- XerD complex is essential to convert dimers of the bacterial chromosome into monomers to permit their segregation at cell division. It also contributes to the segregational stability of plasmids.
   
  
 0.705
aroD
3-dehydroquinate dehydratase; Catalyzes a trans-dehydration via an enolate intermediate. Belongs to the type-II 3-dehydroquinase family.
  
    0.701
aroF
Putative chorismate synthase; Catalyzes the anti-1,4-elimination of the C-3 phosphate and the C-6 proR hydrogen from 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate (EPSP) to yield chorismate, which is the branch point compound that serves as the starting substrate for the three terminal pathways of aromatic amino acid biosynthesis. This reaction introduces a second double bond into the aromatic ring system.
       0.689
aroK
Putative shikimate kinase; Catalyzes the specific phosphorylation of the 3-hydroxyl group of shikimic acid using ATP as a cosubstrate; Belongs to the shikimate kinase family.
       0.689
ML0028
Similar to M. tuberculosis Rv0038, hypothetical protein, TR:P71608 (EMBL:AL123456) (202 aa); Fasta score E(): 0, 88.1% identity in 202 aa overlap. Similar to Streptomyces coelicolor SCE59.07C, hypothetical protein, TR:CAB72194 (EMBL:AL138851) (193 aa); Fasta score E(): 3.5e-28, 45.6% identity in 182 aa overlap and shows weak similarity to many other bacterial hypothetical proteins. Previously sequenced as TR:Q50191 (EMBL:Z70722) (202 aa); Fasta score E(): 0, 100.0% identity in 201 aa overlap; Belongs to the UPF0301 (AlgH) family.
  
  
 0.588
aroB
Putative 3-dehydroquinate synthase; Catalyzes the conversion of 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate (DAHP) to dehydroquinate (DHQ); Belongs to the sugar phosphate cyclases superfamily. Dehydroquinate synthase family.
       0.506
ruvA
Holliday junction DNA helicase component; The RuvA-RuvB complex in the presence of ATP renatures cruciform structure in supercoiled DNA with palindromic sequence, indicating that it may promote strand exchange reactions in homologous recombination. RuvAB is a helicase that mediates the Holliday junction migration by localized denaturation and reannealing. RuvA stimulates, in the presence of DNA, the weak ATPase activity of RuvB.
