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

[Homology]
Score
MET2L-homoserine-O-acetyltransferase; catalyzes the conversion of homoserine to O-acetyl homoserine which is the first step of the methionine biosynthetic pathway; Belongs to the AB hydrolase superfamily. MetX family. (486 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
HOM6
Homoserine dehydrogenase (L-homoserine:NADP oxidoreductase); dimeric enzyme that catalyzes the third step in the common pathway for methionine and threonine biosynthesis; enzyme has nucleotide-binding, dimerization and catalytic regions.
 
 0.995
STR2
Cystathionine gamma-synthase, converts cysteine into cystathionine; STR2 has a paralog, YML082W, that arose from the whole genome duplication; Belongs to the trans-sulfuration enzymes family. MET7 subfamily.
   
 
 0.963
MET17
Homocysteine/cysteine synthase; O-acetyl homoserine-O-acetyl serine sulfhydrylase; required for Methionine and cysteine biosynthesis; Belongs to the trans-sulfuration enzymes family.
 
 
 
 0.943
CYS4
Cystathionine beta-synthase; catalyzes synthesis of cystathionine from serine and homocysteine, the first committed step in cysteine biosynthesis; responsible for hydrogen sulfide generation; advances passage through START by promoting cell growth which requires catalytic activity, and reducing critical cell size independent of catalytic activity; mutations in human ortholog CBS cause homocystinuria; human CBS can complement yeast null mutant.
  
 0.936
MET6
5-methyltetrahydropteroyltriglutamate--homocysteine methyltransferase; Cobalamin-independent methionine synthase; involved in methionine biosynthesis and regeneration; requires a minimum of two glutamates on the methyltetrahydrofolate substrate, similar to bacterial metE homologs.
   
 
 0.934
YLL058W
Putative protein of unknown function with similarity to Str2p; Str2p is a cystathionine gamma-synthase important in sulfur metabolism; YLL058W is not an essential gene.
   
 
 0.929
TRP5
Tryptophan synthase; catalyzes the last step of tryptophan biosynthesis; regulated by the general control system of amino acid biosynthesis; In the N-terminal section; belongs to the TrpA family.
  
 
 0.927
STR3
Peroxisomal cystathionine beta-lyase; converts cystathionine into homocysteine; may be redox regulated by Gto1p; involved in the release of the aromatic thiol 3-mercaptohexanol during wine fermentation.
   
 
 0.927
YML082W
Putative cystathionine gamma-synthase YML082W; Putative protein predicted to have carbon-sulfur lyase activity; transcriptionally regulated by Upc2p via an upstream sterol response element; green fluorescent protein (GFP)-fusion protein localizes to the nucleus and the cytoplasm; not an essential gene; YML082W has a paralog, STR2, that arose from the whole genome duplication.
   
 
 0.927
SUL2
High affinity sulfate permease; sulfate uptake is mediated by specific sulfate transporters Sul1p and Sul2p, which control the concentration of endogenous activated sulfate intermediates; Belongs to the SLC26A/SulP transporter (TC 2.A.53) family.
   
  
 0.926
