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

ARSM22-methyl-6-phytyl-1,4-hydroquinone methyltransferase 1, chloroplastic; Involved in a key methylation step in both tocopherols (vitamin E) and plastoquinone synthesis. Catalyzes the conversion of 2- methyl-6-phytyl-1,4-hydroquinone (MPBQ) to 2,3-dimethyl-6-phytyl-1,4- hydroquinone (DMPQ, a substrate for tocopherol cyclase), and 2-methyl- 6-solanyl-1,4-benzoquinone (MSBQ) to plastoquinone (By similarity). Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. MPBQ/MBSQ MT family. (330 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
VTE1
Probable tocopherol cyclase, chloroplastic; Involved in the synthesis of both tocopherols and tocotrienols (vitamin E), which presumably protect photosynthetic complexes from oxidative stress. Catalyzes the conversion of 2-methyl- 6-phytyl-1,4-hydroquinone and 2,3-dimethyl-5-phytyl-1,4-hydroquinone (DMPQ) to delta- and gamma-tocopherol respectively. Converts also 2,3- dimethyl-5-geranylgeranyl-1,4-hydroquinone (DMGQ) to gamma-tocotrienol (By similarity).

HPT2
Probable homogentisate phytyltransferase 2, chloroplastic; Involved in the synthesis of tocopherol (vitamin E). Catalyzes the condensation of homogentisate and phytyl diphosphate to form dimethylphytylhydrquinone (By similarity); Belongs to the UbiA prenyltransferase family.
     
 0.910
HPT1
Probable homogentisate phytyltransferase 1, chloroplastic; Involved in the synthesis of tocopherol (vitamin E). Catalyzes the condensation of homogentisate and phytyl diphosphate to form dimethylphytylhydroquinone (By similarity); Belongs to the UbiA prenyltransferase family.
    
 0.908
HGGT
Homogentisate geranylgeranyltransferase, chloroplastic; Involved in the synthesis of tocotrienol (vitamin E). Catalyzes the condensation of homogentisate and geranylgeranyl diphosphate to form 2-methyl-6- geranylgeranylbenzoquinol. Possesses low activity with phytyl diphosphate as substrate (By similarity). Tocotrienols functions to limit lipid peroxidation during seed germination.
