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

bchEMagnesium-protoporphyrin IX monomethyl ester anaerobic oxidative cyclase; Involved in the tetrapyrrole biosynthetic pathways leading to chlorophyll and bacteriochlorophyll (BChl). Catalyzes the anaerobic formation of the isocyclic ring (E-ring) in Mg-protoporphyrin monomethyl ester (MPE) to yield protochlorophyllide a (PChlide a) via a six-electron oxidation and the formation of an oxo group at position C13 using oxygen from a water molecule. (575 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
bchJ
Bacteriochlorophyll 4-vinyl reductase.
 
 
 0.999
bchM
Magnesium-protoporphyrin O-methyltransferase.
 
 
 0.986
bchG
Bacteriochlorophyll synthase; Catalyzes the esterification of bacteriochlorophyllide a by geranylgeraniol-PPi.
 
  
 0.954
bchP
Geranylgeranyl reductase; Catalyzes the stepwise hydrogenation of geranylgeraniol to phytol during bacteriochlorophyll A (BchlA) biosynthesis.
 
  
 0.938
bchF
2-vinyl bacteriochlorophyllide hydratase.
 
  
 0.934
ADE86984.1
NAD-dependent epimerase/dehydratase family protein.
 
  
 0.914
bchC
2-desacetyl-2-hydroxyethyl bacteriochlorophyllide A dehydrogenase; This protein catalyzes the penultimate step in bacteriochlorophyll a biosynthesis.
  
  
 0.897
bchB
Light-independent protochlorophyllide reductase, B subunit; Component of the dark-operative protochlorophyllide reductase (DPOR) that uses Mg-ATP and reduced ferredoxin to reduce ring D of protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) to form chlorophyllide a (Chlide). This reaction is light-independent. The NB-protein (BchN-BchB) is the catalytic component of the complex; Belongs to the ChlB/BchB/BchZ family.
  
 
 0.878
bchN
Light-independent protochlorophyllide reductase, N subunit; Component of the dark-operative protochlorophyllide reductase (DPOR) that uses Mg-ATP and reduced ferredoxin to reduce ring D of protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) to form chlorophyllide a (Chlide). This reaction is light-independent. The NB-protein (BchN-BchB) is the catalytic component of the complex; Belongs to the BchN/ChlN family.
