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

racEGlutamate racemase; Provides the (R)-glutamate required for cell wall biosynthesis. (271 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ysnA
Conserved protein YsnA; Pyrophosphatase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleoside triphosphates to their monophosphate derivatives, with a high preference for the non-canonical purine nucleotides XTP (xanthosine triphosphate), dITP (deoxyinosine triphosphate) and ITP. Seems to function as a house-cleaning enzyme that removes non-canonical purine nucleotides from the nucleotide pool, thus preventing their incorporation into DNA/RNA and avoiding chromosomal lesions. Belongs to the HAM1 NTPase family.
 
  0.954
murD
UDP-N-acetylmuramoylalanyl-D-glutamate ligase; Cell wall formation. Catalyzes the addition of glutamate to the nucleotide precursor UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine (UMA). Belongs to the MurCDEF family.
 
  
 0.935
ysmB
Probable transcriptional regulator YsmB.
  
    0.895
guaB
Inosine-monophosphate dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the conversion of inosine 5'-phosphate (IMP) to xanthosine 5'-phosphate (XMP), the first committed and rate-limiting step in the de novo synthesis of guanine nucleotides, and therefore plays an important role in the regulation of cell growth. Belongs to the IMPDH/GMPR family.
    
 0.770
guaA
GMP synthetase; Catalyzes the synthesis of GMP from XMP.
    
  0.742
rocG
Glutamate dehydrogenase; Belongs to the Glu/Leu/Phe/Val dehydrogenases family.
  
 
 0.685
gudB
Glutamate dehydrogenase; Belongs to the Glu/Leu/Phe/Val dehydrogenases family.
  
 
 0.685
glsA
Glutaminase; Belongs to the glutaminase family.
     
 0.617
ylaM
Glutaminase YlaM; Belongs to the glutaminase family.
     
 0.617
yvyC
Flagellar protein YvyC.
    
   0.591
