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

Score
metCCystathionine gamma-synthase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology. (386 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
cysK
Cysteine synthase A; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the cysteine synthase/cystathionine beta- synthase family.
  
 0.978
metE
5-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.
  
 
 0.959
hom
Homoserine dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the formation of L-aspartate 4-semialdehyde from L-homoserine; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
 
 0.941
metZ
O-succinylhomoserine sulfhydrylase; Catalyzes the formation of L-homocysteine from O-succinyl-L- homoserine (OSHS) and hydrogen sulfide.
  
  
 
0.939
luxS
S-ribosylhomocysteine lyase; 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.
  
 
 0.938
ilvA
Threonine ammonia-lyase, biosynthetic; Catalyzes the anaerobic formation of alpha-ketobutyrate and ammonia from threonine in a two-step reaction. The first step involved a dehydration of threonine and a production of enamine intermediates (aminocrotonate), which tautomerizes to its imine form (iminobutyrate). Both intermediates are unstable and short-lived. The second step is the nonenzymatic hydrolysis of the enamine/imine intermediates to form 2- ketobutyrate and free ammonia. In the low water environment of the cell, the second step is accelerated by RidA.
  
 
 0.930
aspC
Aromatic amino acid aminotransferase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
     
 0.926
pepN
Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
     
 0.921
coaBC
Phosphopantothenate synthase; Catalyzes two steps in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A. In the first step cysteine is conjugated to 4'-phosphopantothenate to form 4- phosphopantothenoylcysteine, in the latter compound is decarboxylated to form 4'-phosphopantotheine; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the PPC synthetase family.
   
 
  0.888
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.
   
 
 0.736
