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

focAFormate channel; Involved in the bidirectional transport of formate; Belongs to the FNT transporter (TC 2.A.44) family. (285 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pflB
Formate acetyltransferase 1; Protein involved in anaerobic respiration and cellular amino acid catabolic process.
 
  
 0.978
tdcE
Pyruvate formate-lyase 4/2-ketobutyrate formate-lyase; Catalyzes the cleavage of 2-ketobutyrate to propionyl-CoA and formate. It can also use pyruvate as substrate. Belongs to the glycyl radical enzyme (GRE) family. PFL subfamily.
 
  
 0.841
fdhF
Formate dehydrogenase-H, selenopolypeptide subunit; Decomposes formic acid to hydrogen and carbon dioxide under anaerobic conditions in the absence of exogenous electron acceptors.
  
  
 0.815
fhlA
Formate hydrogenlyase transcriptional activator; Required for induction of expression of the formate dehydrogenase H and hydrogenase-3 structural genes. Also activates expression of hyf operon (encodes the silent hydrogenase-4 gene cluster).
      
 0.804
pflA
Pyruvate formate-lyase 1-activating enzyme; Activation of pyruvate formate-lyase 1 under anaerobic conditions by generation of an organic free radical, using S- adenosylmethionine and reduced flavodoxin as cosubstrates to produce 5'-deoxy-adenosine; Belongs to the organic radical-activating enzymes family.
 
  
 0.792
ldhA
Fermentative D-lactate dehydrogenase, NAD-dependent; Fermentative lactate dehydrogenase; Belongs to the D-isomer specific 2-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase family.
   
  
 0.732
adhE
Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase [acetylating]; This enzyme has three activities: ADH, ACDH, and PFL- deactivase. In aerobic conditions it acts as a hydrogen peroxide scavenger. The PFL deactivase activity catalyzes the quenching of the pyruvate-formate-lyase catalyst in an iron, NAD, and CoA dependent reaction; In the N-terminal section; belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family.
  
  
 0.695
fdnG
Formate dehydrogenase-N, alpha subunit, nitrate-inducible; Formate dehydrogenase allows E.coli to use formate as major electron donor during anaerobic respiration, when nitrate is used as electron acceptor. The alpha subunit FdnG contains the formate oxidation site. Electrons are transferred from formate to menaquinone in the gamma subunit (FdnI), through the 4Fe-4S clusters in the beta subunit (FdnH). Formate dehydrogenase-N is part of a system that generates proton motive force, together with the dissimilatory nitrate reductase (Nar).
  
  
 0.663
hycA
Regulator of the transcriptional regulator FhlA; Regulatory protein for the formate hydrogenlyase system. Could act by directly interacting with FhlA or by preventing the binding of FhlA to the upstream activatory sequence. Also down-regulates expression of the hyf operon.
      
 0.624
fdoG
Formate dehydrogenase-O, large subunit; Allows to use formate as major electron donor during aerobic respiration. Subunit alpha possibly forms the active site; Belongs to the prokaryotic molybdopterin-containing oxidoreductase family.
