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

torCTrimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) reductase I, cytochrome c-type subunit; Part of the anaerobic respiratory chain of trimethylamine-N- oxide reductase TorA. Acts by transferring electrons from the membranous menaquinones to TorA. This transfer probably involves an electron transfer pathway from menaquinones to the N-terminal domain of TorC, then from the N-terminus to the C-terminus, and finally to TorA. TorC apocytochrome negatively autoregulates the torCAD operon probably by inhibiting the TorS kinase activity. (390 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
torA
Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) reductase I, catalytic subunit; Reduces trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) into trimethylamine; an anaerobic reaction coupled to energy-yielding reactions.
 
 0.999
torD
TorA-maturation chaperone; Involved in the biogenesis of TorA. Acts on TorA before the insertion of the molybdenum cofactor and, as a result, probably favors a conformation of the apoenzyme that is competent for acquiring the cofactor.
  
 
 0.998
torZ
Trimethylamine N-oxide reductase system III, catalytic subunit; Reduces trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) into trimethylamine; an anaerobic reaction coupled to energy-yielding reactions. Can also reduce other N- and S-oxide compounds such as 4-methylmorpholine-N- oxide and biotin sulfoxide (BSO), but with a lower catalytic efficiency; Belongs to the prokaryotic molybdopterin-containing oxidoreductase family.
 
 
 0.987
torS
Hybrid sensory histidine kinase in two-component regulatory system with TorR; Member of the two-component regulatory system TorS/TorR involved in the anaerobic utilization of trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO). Detects the presence of TMAO in the medium and, in response, activates TorR via a four-step phosphorelay. When TMAO is removed, TorS can dephosphorylate TorR, probably by a reverse phosphorelay involving His- 860 and Asp-733.
  
 
 
 0.969
napB
Nitrate reductase, small, cytochrome C550 subunit, periplasmic; Electron transfer subunit of the periplasmic nitrate reductase complex NapAB. Receives electrons from the membrane-anchored tetraheme c-type NapC protein and transfers these to NapA subunit, thus allowing electron flow between membrane and periplasm. Essential for periplasmic nitrate reduction with nitrate as the terminal electron acceptor; Belongs to the NapB family.
 
  
 0.961
torR
Response regulator in two-component regulatory system with TorS; Member of the two-component regulatory system TorS/TorR involved in the anaerobic utilization of trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO). Phosphorylated TorR activates the transcription of the torCAD operon by binding to four decameric boxes located in the torCAD promoter. Box1, 2 and 4 contain the DNA sequence 5'-CTGTTCATAT-3' and box3 contains the DNA sequence 5'-CCGTTCATCC-3'. Phosphorylated as well as unphosphorylated TorR negatively regulates its own expression by binding to box1 and 2.
 
   
 0.941
torY
TMAO reductase III (TorYZ), cytochrome c-type subunit; Part of the anaerobic respiratory chain of trimethylamine-N- oxide reductase TorZ. Required for electron transfer to the TorZ terminal enzyme.
  
  
0.929
torT
Periplasmic sensory protein associated with the TorRS two-component regulatory system; Upon binding a putative inducer it probably interacts with TorS and allows it to play a role in the induction of the torCAD operon for trimethylamine N-oxide reductase; Belongs to the bacterial solute-binding protein 2 family.
  
  
 0.898
napA
Nitrate reductase, periplasmic, large subunit; Catalytic subunit of the periplasmic nitrate reductase complex NapAB. Receives electrons from NapB and catalyzes the reduction of nitrate to nitrite; Belongs to the prokaryotic molybdopterin-containing oxidoreductase family. NasA/NapA/NarB subfamily.
 
  
 0.898
dmsA
Dimethyl sulfoxide reductase, anaerobic, subunit A; Catalyzes the reduction of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to dimethyl sulfide (DMS). DMSO reductase serves as the terminal reductase under anaerobic conditions, with DMSO being the terminal electron acceptor. Terminal reductase during anaerobic growth on various sulfoxides and N-oxide compounds. Allows E.coli to grow anaerobically on DMSO as respiratory oxidant.
