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

fesEnterobactin/ferrienterobactin esterase; Upon internalization, ferric enterobactin is processed via an exquisitely specific pathway that is dependent on FES activity, making iron available for metabolic use; Belongs to the Fes family. (400 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
entF
Enterobactin synthase multienzyme complex component, ATP-dependent; Activates the carboxylate group of L-serine via ATP-dependent PPi exchange reactions to the aminoacyladenylate, preparing that molecule for the final stages of enterobactin synthesis. Holo-EntF acts as the catalyst for the formation of the three amide and three ester bonds present in the cyclic (2,3-dihydroxybenzoyl)serine trimer enterobactin, using seryladenylate and acyl-holo-EntB (acylated with 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate by EntE).

fepB
Ferrienterobactin ABC transporter periplasmic binding protein; Binds ferrienterobactin; part of the binding-protein- dependent transport system for uptake of ferrienterobactin.
 
  
 0.997
entC
Isochorismate synthase 1; Involved in the biosynthesis of the siderophore enterobactin (macrocyclic trimeric lactone of N-(2,3-dihydroxybenzoyl)-serine). Catalyzes the reversible conversion of chorismate to isochorismate.
 
  
 0.995
ybdZ
Stimulator of EntF adenylation activity, MbtH-like; Involved in the biosynthesis of the siderophore enterobactin (enterochelin), which is a macrocyclic trimeric lactone of N-(2,3- dihydroxybenzoyl)-serine. Plays a role in the catalytic function of EntF. It is required for adenylation of amino acids in non-ribosomal peptide biosynthesis; Belongs to the MbtH-like family.
  
 0.993
fepA
Ferrienterobactin outer membrane transporter; This protein is involved in the initial step of iron uptake by binding ferrienterobactin (Fe-ENT), an iron chelatin siderophore that allows E.coli to extract iron from the environment. FepA also acts as a receptor for colicins B and D.
 
  
 0.991
entS
Enterobactin exporter, iron-regulated; Component of an export pathway for enterobactin. Overexpression reduces intracellular arabinose concentrations.
  
  
 0.989
entE
2,3-dihydroxybenzoate-AMP ligase component of enterobactin synthase multienzyme complex; Involved in the biosynthesis of the siderophore enterobactin (enterochelin), which is a macrocyclic trimeric lactone of N-(2,3- dihydroxybenzoyl)-serine. The serine trilactone serves as a scaffolding for the three catechol functionalities that provide hexadentate coordination for the tightly ligated iron(2+) atoms. EntE proccesses via a two-step adenylation-ligation reaction (bi-uni-uni-bi ping-pong mechanism). First, it catalyzes the activation of the carboxylate group of 2,3-dihydroxy-benzoate (D [...]

entB
Isochorismatase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the siderophore enterobactin (enterochelin), which is a macrocyclic trimeric lactone of N-(2,3- dihydroxybenzoyl)-serine. The serine trilactone serves as a scaffolding for the three catechol functionalities that provide hexadentate coordination for the tightly ligated iron(2+) atoms. EntB is a bifunctional protein that serves as an isochorismate lyase and an aryl carrier protein (ArCP). Catalyzes the conversion of isochorismate to 2,3-dihydro-2,3-dihydroxybenzoate (2,3-diDHB), the precursor of 2,3- dihydroxybenzoate (DHB). In the enterob [...]

entA
2,3-dihydro-2,3-dihydroxybenzoate dehydrogenase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the siderophore enterobactin (enterochelin), which is a macrocyclic trimeric lactone of N-(2,3- dihydroxybenzoyl)-serine. Catalyzes the reversible NAD-dependent oxidation of the C3-hydroxyl group of 2,3-dihydro-2,3-dihydroxybenzoate (2,3-diDHB), producing the transient intermediate 2-hydroxy-3-oxo-4,6- cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate, which undergoes rapid aromatization to the final product, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate (2,3-DHB). Only the compounds with a C3-hydroxyl group such as methyl 2,3-dihydro-2,3- dihydroxyb [...]

fepG
Iron-enterobactin ABC transporter permease; Part of the binding-protein-dependent transport system for ferric enterobactin. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
