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

mvkMevalonate kinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of (R)-mevalonate (MVA) to (R)- mevalonate 5-phosphate (MVAP). Functions in the mevalonate (MVA) pathway leading to isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP), a key precursor for the biosynthesis of isoprenoid compounds such as archaeal membrane lipids; Belongs to the GHMP kinase family. Mevalonate kinase subfamily. (314 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
hmgA
3 hydroxy 3 methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase; Converts HMG-CoA to mevalonate; Belongs to the HMG-CoA reductase family.
 
 0.994
MvaD
Diphosphomevalonate decarboxylase, putative; Catalyzes the decarboxylation of mevalonate 5-diphosphate (MVAPP) to isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP). Functions in the mevalonate (MVA) pathway leading to IPP, a key precursor for the biosynthesis of isoprenoid compounds such as archaeal membrane lipids. Belongs to the diphosphomevalonate decarboxylase family.

SSO2988
(Phospho) mevalonate kinase, putative; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of (R)-mevalonate 5-phosphate (MVAP) to (R)-mevalonate 5-diphosphate (MVAPP). Functions in the mevalonate (MVA) pathway leading to isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP), a key precursor for the biosynthesis of isoprenoid compounds such as archaeal membrane lipids; Belongs to the GHMP kinase family.
 
 
 0.984
gdS-1
Geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthetase (gdS-1); Catalyzes the condensation of isopentenyl pyrophosphate with the allylic pyrophosphates to yield geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) which is a precursor of the ether-linked lipids; Belongs to the FPP/GGPP synthase family.
 
  
 0.929
SSO0535
Acyl carrier protein synthase; Lipid metabolism; Belongs to the thiolase-like superfamily. UPF0219 family.
 
  
 0.903
fni
FMN-dependent dehydrogenase, conserved hypothetical; Involved in the biosynthesis of isoprenoids. Catalyzes the 1,3-allylic rearrangement of the homoallylic substrate isopentenyl (IPP) to its allylic isomer, dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP).
 
  
 0.882
crtB
Phytoene synthetase (crtB); Cofactor Biosynthesis, Caretenoid Biosynthesis.
  
  
 0.828
carS
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the formation of CDP-2,3-bis-(O-geranylgeranyl)-sn- glycerol (CDP-archaeol) from 2,3-bis-(O-geranylgeranyl)-sn-glycerol 1- phosphate (DGGGP) and CTP. This reaction is the third ether-bond- formation step in the biosynthesis of archaeal membrane lipids.
     
 0.794
SSO0381
Sugar phosphate nucleotydyl transferase; Several close hits to other proteins; Cell Envelope, Surface polysaccharides and lipopolysaccharides.
  
   0.742
ubiA-2
4-hydroxybenzoate octaprenyltransferase, putative (ubiA-2); Prenyltransferase that catalyzes the transfer of the geranylgeranyl moiety of geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) to the C2 hydroxyl of (S)-3-O-geranylgeranylglyceryl phosphate (GGGP). This reaction is the second ether-bond-formation step in the biosynthesis of archaeal membrane lipids. Cannot use other prenyl donors, i.e. farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) and phytyl diphosphate. Moreover, 4-hydroxybenzoate, 1,4-dihydroxy 2-naphthoate, homogentisate, and alpha-glycerophosphate do not function as prenyl acceptor substrates.
