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
aroD3-dehydroquinate dehydratase; Catalyzes a trans-dehydration via an enolate intermediate. Belongs to the type-II 3-dehydroquinase family. (145 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
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.
 
 0.998
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.
 
 
 0.987
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.
 
   
 0.910
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.
  
  
 0.898
pepQ
Putative cytoplasmic peptidase; Similar to M. tuberculosis pepQ, Rv2535c, putative cytoplasmic peptidase, TR:P95018 (EMBL:AL123456) (372 aa); Fasta score E(): 0, 83.0% identity in 376 aa overlap. Similar to many e.g. Pyrococcus furiosus cobalt-dependent proline dipeptidase, TR:P81535 (EMBL:AF060010) (348 aa); Fasta score E(): 1.6e-29, 33.7% identity in 359 aa overlap. Contains Pfam match to entry PF00557 Peptidase_M24, metallopeptidase family M24. Contains PS00491 Aminopeptidase P and proline dipeptidase signature. Contains PS00211 ABC transporters family signature.

ML0513
Conserved hypothetical protein; Could be a nuclease involved in processing of the 5'-end of pre-16S rRNA; Belongs to the YqgF nuclease family.
  
    0.701
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.
       0.689
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.
       0.689
aroA
Putative 3-phosphoshikimate 1-carboxyvinyl transferase; Catalyzes the transfer of the enolpyruvyl moiety of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to the 5-hydroxyl of shikimate-3-phosphate (S3P) to produce enolpyruvyl shikimate-3-phosphate and inorganic phosphate.
     
 0.484
ML0577
Putative protein-export membrane protein; Involved in protein export. Participates in an early event of protein translocation (By similarity); Belongs to the SecG family.
