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

purTPhosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase 2; Involved in the de novo purine biosynthesis. Catalyzes the transfer of formate to 5-phospho-ribosyl-glycinamide (GAR), producing 5-phospho-ribosyl-N-formylglycinamide (FGAR). Formate is provided by PurU via hydrolysis of 10-formyl-tetrahydrofolate. PurT is also able to cleave acetyl phosphate and carbamoyl phosphate to produce ATP with acetate and carbamate, respectively; Belongs to the PurK/PurT family. (392 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
purN
Phosphoribosylglycinamide formyltransferase 1; Catalyzes the transfer of a formyl group from 10- formyltetrahydrofolate to 5-phospho-ribosyl-glycinamide (GAR), producing 5-phospho-ribosyl-N-formylglycinamide (FGAR) and tetrahydrofolate; Belongs to the GART family.
   
 
 0.998
purL
Phosphoribosylformyl-glycineamide synthetase; Phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthase involved in the purines biosynthetic pathway. Catalyzes the ATP-dependent conversion of formylglycinamide ribonucleotide (FGAR) and glutamine to yield formylglycinamidine ribonucleotide (FGAM) and glutamate.
  
 
 0.998
purH
IMP cyclohydrolase and phosphoribosylaminoimidazolecarboxamide formyltransferase; Protein involved in purine nucleotide biosynthetic process and nucleobase, nucleoside and nucleotide interconversion.
   
 
 0.998
purD
Phosphoribosylglycinamide synthetase = GAR synthetase; Protein involved in purine nucleotide biosynthetic process; Belongs to the GARS family.
  
 
 0.995
purE
N5-carboxyaminoimidazole ribonucleotide mutase; Catalyzes the conversion of N5-carboxyaminoimidazole ribonucleotide (N5-CAIR) to 4-carboxy-5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide (CAIR); Belongs to the AIR carboxylase family. Class I subfamily.
  
 0.992
purM
Phosphoribosylaminoimidazole synthetase = AIR synthetase; Protein involved in purine nucleotide biosynthetic process; Belongs to the AIR synthase family.
  
  
 0.990
purU
Formyltetrahydrofolate hydrolase; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of 10-formyltetrahydrofolate (formyl-FH4) to formate and tetrahydrofolate (FH4). Provides the major source of formate for the PurT-dependent synthesis of 5'- phosphoribosyl-N-formylglycinamide (FGAR) during aerobic growth. Has a role in regulating the one-carbon pool.
  
 
 0.982
purF
Amidophosphoribosyltransferase; Catalyzes the formation of phosphoribosylamine from phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) and glutamine. Can also use NH(3) in place of glutamine.
  
  
 0.973
glyA
Serine hydroxymethyltransferase; Catalyzes the reversible interconversion of serine and glycine with tetrahydrofolate (THF) serving as the one-carbon carrier. This reaction serves as the major source of one-carbon groups required for the biosynthesis of purines, thymidylate, methionine, and other important biomolecules. Also exhibits THF-independent aldolase activity toward beta-hydroxyamino acids, producing glycine and aldehydes, via a retro-aldol mechanism. Thus, is able to catalyze the cleavage of allothreonine and 3-phenylserine. Also catalyzes the irreversible conversion of 5,10-m [...]
  
 
 0.931
folD
Methenyltetrahydrofolate cyclohydrolase; Catalyzes the oxidation of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate and then the hydrolysis of 5,10- methenyltetrahydrofolate to 10-formyltetrahydrofolate. This enzyme is specific for NADP.
