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.

Score
metE5-methyltetrahydropteroyltriglutamate/ homocysteine S-methyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from 5- methyltetrahydrofolate to homocysteine resulting in methionine formation; Belongs to the vitamin-B12 independent methionine synthase family. (766 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
metK
S-adenosylmethionine synthetase; Catalyzes the formation of S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) from methionine and ATP. The overall synthetic reaction is composed of two sequential steps, AdoMet formation and the subsequent tripolyphosphate hydrolysis which occurs prior to release of AdoMet from the enzyme.
  
 0.964
BCHO_0517
Cystathionine gamma-synthase.
  
 
 0.957
BCHO_1121
5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase; Belongs to the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase family.
  
  
 0.957
BCHO_0519
Cystathionine beta-synthase.
  
 
 0.934
luxS
LuxS; Involved in the synthesis of autoinducer 2 (AI-2) which is secreted by bacteria and is used to communicate both the cell density and the metabolic potential of the environment. The regulation of gene expression in response to changes in cell density is called quorum sensing. Catalyzes the transformation of S-ribosylhomocysteine (RHC) to homocysteine (HC) and 4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentadione (DPD). Belongs to the LuxS family.
    
 0.926
BCHO_0571
O-acetylhomoserine (thiol)-lyase.
  
 
 0.917
BCHO_1316
O-acetylhomoserine sulfhydrylase.
  
 
 0.917
BCHO_1327
Aspartate aminotransferase.
    
 0.911
BCHO_1234
Bifunctional beta-cystathionase/maltose regulon repressor.
  
 
 0.910
metG
Methionine--tRNA ligase; Is required not only for elongation of protein synthesis but also for the initiation of all mRNA translation through initiator tRNA(fMet) aminoacylation.
    
 0.909
