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
hptHypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase; Acts preferentially on hypoxanthine; has very low activity towards guanine. Inactive towards xanthine. Belongs to the purine/pyrimidine phosphoribosyltransferase family. (178 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
gpt
Xanthine phosphoribosyltransferase; Acts on guanine, xanthine and to a lesser extent hypoxanthine.
  
 0.985
apt
Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase; Catalyzes a salvage reaction resulting in the formation of AMP, that is energically less costly than de novo synthesis.
  
 0.984
purA
Adenylosuccinate synthetase; 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.
  
 
 0.971
guaA
GMP synthetase (glutamine aminotransferase); Catalyzes the synthesis of GMP from XMP.
  
 
 0.961
gsk
Inosine-guanosine kinase; Protein involved in nucleobase, nucleoside and nucleotide interconversion.
   
 
 0.959
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.
  
 
 0.959
gmk
Guanylate kinase; Essential for recycling GMP and indirectly, cGMP. Belongs to the guanylate kinase family.
  
 
 0.959
adk
Adenylate kinase; Catalyzes the reversible transfer of the terminal phosphate group between ATP and AMP. Plays an important role in cellular energy homeostasis and in adenine nucleotide metabolism; Belongs to the adenylate kinase family.
 
  
 0.952
purH
IMP cyclohydrolase and phosphoribosylaminoimidazolecarboxamide formyltransferase; Protein involved in purine nucleotide biosynthetic process and nucleobase, nucleoside and nucleotide interconversion.
    
 0.947
deoD
Purine nucleoside phosphorylase 1; Cleavage of guanosine or inosine to respective bases and sugar-1-phosphate molecules.
     
 0.946
