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:
some 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

wcaIPutative colanic biosynthesis glycosyl transferase; Protein involved in colanic acid biosynthetic process (407 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
wcaH
Colanic acid biosynthesis protein wcah; Hydrolyzes both GDP-mannose and GDP-glucose. Could participate in the regulation of cell wall biosynthesis by influencing the concentration of GDP-mannose or GDP-glucose in the cell. Might also be involved in the biosynthesis of the slime polysaccharide colanic acid
 
  
 0.998
wcaF
Putative colanic acid biosynthesis acetyltransferase wcaf; Putative transferase; Protein involved in colanic acid biosynthetic process
 
  
 0.995
gmd
Gdp-d-mannose dehydratase, nad(p)-binding; Catalyzes the conversion of GDP-D-mannose to GDP-4-dehydro-6- deoxy-D-mannose
 
  
 0.987
wcaC
Putative colanic acid biosynthesis glycosyl transferase WcaC; Protein involved in colanic acid biosynthetic process
 
  
 0.986
wcaA
Putative colanic acid biosynthesis glycosyl transferase WcaA; Putative regulator; Protein involved in colanic acid biosynthetic process
 
  
 0.984
wcaE
Putative colanic acid biosynthesis glycosyl transferase; Protein involved in colanic acid biosynthetic process
 
  
 0.983
cpsB
Mannose-1-phosphate guanylyltransferase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the capsular polysaccharide colanic acid
 
  
 0.978
wcaG
Gdp-l-fucose synthase; Catalyzes the two-step NADP-dependent conversion of GDP-4- dehydro-6-deoxy-D-mannose to GDP-fucose, involving an epimerase and a reductase reaction
 
  
 0.978
wcaJ
Putative colanic acid biosysnthesis udp-glucose lipid carrier transferase; Is the initiating enzyme for colanic acid (CA) synthesis. Catalyzes the transfer of the glucose-1-phosphate moiety from UDP-Glc onto the carrier lipid undecaprenyl phosphate (C55-P), forming a phosphoanhydride bond yielding to glucosyl-pyrophosphoryl-undecaprenol (Glc-PP-C55). Also possesses a weak galactose-1-P transferase activity
