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

mglCMethyl-galactoside transporter subunit; Part of the binding-protein-dependent transport system for galactoside. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane. (336 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
mglA
Methyl-galactoside ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex MglABC involved in galactose/methyl galactoside import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system (Probable).
 
 0.999
mglB
Methyl-galactoside transporter subunit; This protein is involved in the active transport of galactose and glucose. It plays a role in the chemotaxis towards the two sugars by interacting with the trg chemoreceptor.
 
 0.999
rbsB
D-ribose ABC transporter periplasmic binding protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex RbsABC involved in ribose import. Binds ribose. Also serves as the primary chemoreceptor for chemotaxis; Belongs to the bacterial solute-binding protein 2 family.
 
  0.985
alsB
D-allose ABC transporter periplasmic binding protein; Part of the binding-protein-dependent transport system AlsBAC for D-allose; Belongs to the bacterial solute-binding protein 2 family.
 
  0.952
rbsA
D-ribose ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex RbsABC involved in ribose import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system. Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Ribose importer (TC 3.A.1.2.1) family.
 
  0.924
xylG
D-xylose ABC transporter dual domain ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex XylFGH involved in xylose import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system (Probable). The XylFGH system can also transport ribose in absence of xylose; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Xylose importer (TC 3.A.1.2.4) family.
 
  0.919
alsA
D-allose ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex AlsBAC involved in D- allose import. Probably responsible for energy coupling to the transport system; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. D-allose importer (TC 3.A.1.2.6) family.
 
  0.916
araG
L-arabinose ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex AraFGH involved in arabinose import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system (Probable); Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Arabinose importer (TC 3.A.1.2.2) family.
 
  0.915
yphE
Putative sugar ABC transporter ATPase; Probably part of a binding-protein-dependent transport system YphDEF. Probably responsible for energy coupling to the transport system.
 
  0.915
lsrA
Autoinducer 2 import ATP-binding protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex LsrABCD involved in autoinducer 2 (AI-2) import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system (Probable). This protein is essential for aerobic growth.
