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

GAL1Galactokinase; phosphorylates alpha-D-galactose to alpha-D-galactose-1-phosphate in the first step of galactose catabolism; expression regulated by Gal4p; human homolog GALK2 complements yeast null mutant; GAL1 has a paralog, GAL3, that arose from the whole genome duplication. (528 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
GAL7
Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase; synthesizes glucose-1-phosphate and UDP-galactose from UDP-D-glucose and alpha-D-galactose-1-phosphate in the second step of galactose catabolism; human homolog UGP2 can complement yeast null mutant.
 0.999
GAL10
Bifunctional protein GAL10; UDP-glucose-4-epimerase; catalyzes interconversion of UDP-galactose and UDP-D-glucose in galactose metabolism; also catalyzes conversion of alpha-D-glucose or alpha-D-galactose to their beta-anomers; human homolog GALE implicated in galactosemia, can complement yeast null mutant.
  
 0.999
GAL80
Galactose/lactose metabolism regulatory protein GAL80; Transcriptional regulator involved in the repression of GAL genes; involved in the repression of GAL genes in the absence of galactose; inhibits transcriptional activation by Gal4p; inhibition relieved by Gal3p or Gal1p binding; To K.lactis GAL80.
  
 
 0.998
GAL4
Regulatory protein GAL4; DNA-binding transcription factor required for activating GAL genes; responds to galactose; repressed by Gal80p and activated by Gal3p.
   
 
 0.998
GAL2
Galactose permease; required for utilization of galactose; also able to transport glucose; Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Sugar transporter (TC 2.A.1.1) family.
   
 
 0.997
GAL3
Protein GAL3; Transcriptional regulator; involved in activation of the GAL genes in response to galactose; forms a complex with Gal80p to relieve Gal80p inhibition of Gal4p; binds galactose and ATP but does not have galactokinase activity; GAL3 has a paralog, GAL1, that arose from the whole genome duplication; Belongs to the GHMP kinase family. GalK subfamily.
  
0.986
URA3
Orotidine-5'-phosphate (OMP) decarboxylase; catalyzes the sixth enzymatic step in the de novo biosynthesis of pyrimidines, converting OMP into uridine monophosphate (UMP); converts 5-FOA into 5-fluorouracil, a toxic compound.
  
  
 0.957
LEU2
Beta-isopropylmalate dehydrogenase (IMDH); catalyzes the third step in the leucine biosynthesis pathway; can additionally catalyze the conversion of beta-ethylmalate into alpha-ketovalerate; Belongs to the isocitrate and isopropylmalate dehydrogenases family.
   
 
 0.944
TRP1
Phosphoribosylanthranilate isomerase; catalyzes the third step in tryptophan biosynthesis; in 2004, the sequence of TRP1 from strain S228C was updated by changing the previously annotated internal STOP (TAA) to serine (TCA); enhances vegetative growth at low and high temperatures when used as an auxotrophic marker in strains such as W303.
   
  
 0.932
HIS3
Imidazoleglycerol-phosphate dehydratase; catalyzes the sixth step in histidine biosynthesis; mutations cause histidine auxotrophy and sensitivity to Cu, Co, and Ni salts; transcription is regulated by general amino acid control via Gcn4p.
      
 0.910
