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

araAL-arabinose isomerase; Catalyzes the conversion of L-arabinose to L-ribulose. (500 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
araD
L-ribulose-5-phosphate 4-epimerase; Involved in the degradation of L-arabinose. Catalyzes the interconversion of L-ribulose 5-phosphate (LRu5P) and D- xylulose 5-phosphate (D-Xu5P) via a retroaldol/aldol mechanism (carbon- carbon bond cleavage analogous to a class II aldolase reaction).
 
 0.999
araB
L-ribulokinase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process; Belongs to the ribulokinase family.
 
 0.999
sgbE
L-ribulose-5-phosphate 4-epimerase; Catalyzes the interconversion of L-ribulose 5-phosphate (LRu5P) and D-xylulose 5-phosphate (D-Xu5P) via a retroaldol/aldol mechanism (carbon-carbon bond cleavage analogous to a class II aldolase reaction). May be involved in the utilization of 2,3-diketo-L-gulonate.
  
 0.992
ulaF
L-ribulose 5-phosphate 4-epimerase; Catalyzes the isomerization of L-ribulose 5-phosphate to D- xylulose 5-phosphate. Is involved in the anaerobic L-ascorbate utilization; Belongs to the aldolase class II family. AraD/FucA subfamily.
 
 0.992
araE
Arabinose transporter; Uptake of arabinose across the boundary membrane with the concomitant transport of protons into the cell (symport system).
   
  
 0.936
xylA
D-xylose isomerase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process and glucose metabolic process; Belongs to the xylose isomerase family.
  
   
 0.936
yagH
CP4-6 prophage; Putative beta-xylosidase.
 
 
 0.918
xylB
Xylulokinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of D-xylulose to D-xylulose 5- phosphate. Also catalyzes the phosphorylation of 1- deoxy-D-xylulose to 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate, with lower efficiency. Can also use D-ribulose, xylitol and D- arabitol, but D-xylulose is preferred over the other substrates. Has a weak substrate-independent Mg-ATP-hydrolyzing activity ; Belongs to the FGGY kinase family.
  
  
 0.837
araC
Ara regulon transcriptional activator; Transcription factor that regulates the expression of several genes involved in the transport and metabolism of L-arabinose. Functions both as a positive and a negative regulator. In the presence of arabinose, activates the expression of the araBAD, araE, araFGH and araJ promoters. In the absence of arabinose, negatively regulates the araBAD operon. Represses its own transcription. Acts by binding directly to DNA.
 
  
 0.824
lgoD
L-galactonate oxidoreductase; Catalyzes the oxidation of L-galactonate to D-tagaturonate. Required for growth on L-galactonate as the sole carbon source. In vitro, can also use L-gulonate.
