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

wecBUDP-N-Acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase; Catalyzes the reversible epimerization at C-2 of UDP-N- acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) and thereby provides bacteria with UDP- N-acetylmannosamine (UDP-ManNAc), the activated donor of ManNAc residues. (376 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
wecC
UDP-glucose/GDP-mannose dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the four-electron oxidation of UDP-N-acetyl-D- mannosamine (UDP-ManNAc), reducing NAD(+) and releasing UDP-N- acetylmannosaminuronic acid (UDP-ManNAcA); Belongs to the UDP-glucose/GDP-mannose dehydrogenase family. WecC subfamily.
 
 0.999
wecA
Undecaprenyl-phosphate alpha-N-acetylglucosaminyl 1-phosphatetransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of the GlcNAc-1-phosphate moiety from UDP-GlcNAc onto the carrier lipid undecaprenyl phosphate (C55-P), yielding GlcNAc-pyrophosphoryl-undecaprenyl (GlcNAc-PP-C55).
  
 0.970
wecG
Glycosyl transferase, WecB/TagA/CpsF family; Catalyzes the synthesis of Und-PP-GlcNAc-ManNAcA (Lipid II), the second lipid-linked intermediate involved in enterobacterial common antigen (ECA) synthesis.
 
   
 0.941
glmU
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase; Catalyzes the last two sequential reactions in the de novo biosynthetic pathway for UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc). The C- terminal domain catalyzes the transfer of acetyl group from acetyl coenzyme A to glucosamine-1-phosphate (GlcN-1-P) to produce N- acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate (GlcNAc-1-P), which is converted into UDP-GlcNAc by the transfer of uridine 5-monophosphate (from uridine 5- triphosphate), a reaction catalyzed by the N-terminal domain. In the C-terminal section; belongs to the transferase hexapeptide repeat family.
    
 0.938
murA
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 1-carboxyvinyltransferase; Cell wall formation. Adds enolpyruvyl to UDP-N- acetylglucosamine; Belongs to the EPSP synthase family. MurA subfamily.
  
 
 0.911
wecE
TDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-glucose transaminase; Catalyzes the synthesis of dTDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-D- galactose (dTDP-Fuc4N) from dTDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-glucose (dTDP-D- Glc4O) and L-glutamate; Belongs to the DegT/DnrJ/EryC1 family.
  
  
 0.896
wzxE
Polysaccharide biosynthesis protein; Mediates the transbilayer movement of Und-PP-GlcNAc-ManNAcA- Fuc4NAc (lipid III) from the inner to the outer leaflet of the cytoplasmic membrane during the assembly of enterobacterial common antigen (ECA); Belongs to the polysaccharide transport (PST) (TC 2.A.66.2) family.
  
  
 0.894
wzzE
Lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis protein; Modulates the polysaccharide chain length of enterobacterial common antigen (ECA); Belongs to the WzzB/Cld/Rol family.
  
  
 0.856
wecD
TDP-D-fucosamine acetyltransferase; Catalyzes the acetylation of dTDP-fucosamine (dTDP-4-amino- 4,6-dideoxy-D-galactose) to dTDP-Fuc4NAc, which is utilized in the biosynthesis of the enterobacterial common antigen (ECA). Belongs to the WecD family.
  
  
 0.855
lpxA
acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein]--UDP-N- acetylglucosamine O-acyltransferase; Involved in the biosynthesis of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell.
