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.

btuBVitamin B12/cobalamin outer membrane transporter; Involved in the active translocation of vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) across the outer membrane to the periplasmic space. It derives its energy for transport by interacting with the trans- periplasmic membrane protein TonB; Belongs to the TonB-dependent receptor family. BtuB (TC 1.B.14.3.1) subfamily. (622 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dga
Glutamate racemase; Provides the (R)-glutamate required for cell wall biosynthesis.
    
 0.930
tonB
Energy transducer TonB; Interacts with outer membrane receptor proteins that carry out high-affinity binding and energy dependent uptake into the periplasmic space of specific substrates. It could act to transduce energy from the cytoplasmic membrane to specific energy-requiring processes in the outer membrane, resulting in the release into the periplasm of ligands bound by these outer membrane proteins. Belongs to the TonB family.

AKA39962.1
Hypothetical protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
 
 
 
 0.851
ompF
Porin; Allows for ions and hydrophilic solutes to cross the outer membrane; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the Gram-negative porin family.
    
 0.821
lamB
Maltoporin; Involved in the transport of maltose and maltodextrins. Belongs to the porin LamB (TC 1.B.3) family.
     
 0.742
exbB
Biopolymer transporter ExbB; Membrane spanning protein in TonB-ExbB-ExbD complex; involved in the tonB-independent energy-dependent transport iron-siderophore complexes and vitamin B12 into the cell; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
     
 0.709
meoA
Membrane protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the Gram-negative porin family.
    
 0.707
tolQ
Colicin uptake protein TolQ; Part of the Tol-Pal system, which plays a role in outer membrane invagination during cell division and is important for maintaining outer membrane integrity. Required, with TolR, for the proton motive force-dependent activation of TolA and for TolA-Pal interaction.
 
   
 0.658
metH
B12-dependent methionine synthase; Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from methyl- cobalamin to homocysteine, yielding enzyme-bound cob(I)alamin and methionine. Subsequently, remethylates the cofactor using methyltetrahydrofolate.
 
   
 0.644
exbD
Biopolymer transporter ExbD; Membrane spanning protein in TonB-ExbB-ExbD complex; involved in the tonB-independent energy-dependent transport iron-siderophore complexes and vitamin B12 into the cell; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
