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

rbsKRibokinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of ribose at O-5 in a reaction requiring ATP and magnesium. The resulting D-ribose-5-phosphate can then be used either for sythesis of nucleotides, histidine, and tryptophan, or as a component of the pentose phosphate pathway. (300 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpiA
Ribose 5-phosphate isomerase A; Catalyzes the reversible conversion of ribose-5-phosphate to ribulose 5-phosphate.
   
 0.978
prs
Ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the central metabolite phospho-alpha-D-ribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) via the transfer of pyrophosphoryl group from ATP to 1-hydroxyl of ribose-5-phosphate (Rib- 5-P); Belongs to the ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase family. Class I subfamily.
   
 0.962
tktA
Transketolase; Catalyzes the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor, via a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate.
   
 0.950
rbsD
D-ribose pyranase; Catalyzes the interconversion of beta-pyran and beta-furan forms of D-ribose.
 
  
 0.942
algC
Phosphomannomutase/phosphoglucomutase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
   
 
 0.931
rihB
Nucleoside hydrolase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
 
 
 0.866
guaA
Glutamine-hydrolyzing GMP synthase; Catalyzes the synthesis of GMP from XMP.
  
 
 0.861
rbsB
D-ribose ABC transporter substrate-binding protein RbsB; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
 
  
 0.791
guaB
IMP 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.
     
 0.788
purA
Adenylosuccinate synthase; Plays an important role in the de novo pathway of purine nucleotide biosynthesis. Catalyzes the first committed step in the biosynthesis of AMP from IMP; Belongs to the adenylosuccinate synthetase family.
  
 0.777
