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

fucKL-fuculokinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of L-fuculose. Can also phosphorylate, with lower efficiency, D-ribulose, D-xylulose and D- fructose. (472 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fucI
L-fucose isomerase; Converts the aldose L-fucose into the corresponding ketose L- fuculose. Is also able to convert D-arabinose into D-ribulose, but this isomerase has a higher affinity for fucose and fuculose than for arabinose and ribulose, respectively.
 
 
 0.998
fucA
L-fuculose-1-phosphate aldolase; Involved in the degradation of L-fucose and D-arabinose. Catalyzes the reversible cleavage of L-fuculose 1- phosphate (Fuc1P) to yield dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and L- lactaldehyde (Ref.8, Ref.9,. Also able to catalyze the reversible cleavage of D- ribulose 1-phosphate, but FucA has a higher affinity for L-fuculose 1- phosphate and L-lactaldehyde than for D-ribulose 1-phosphate and glycolaldehyde, respectively. FucA possesses a high specificity for the dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), but accepts a great variety of different aldehydes and has [...]
 
 
 0.993
fucU
L-fucose mutarotase; Involved in the anomeric conversion of L-fucose. Catalyzes also the interconversion of beta-pyran and beta-furan forms of D- ribose; Belongs to the RbsD / FucU family. FucU mutarotase subfamily.
 
  
 0.950
fucR
L-fucose operon activator; Transcriptional activator of the fuc operon.
 
  
 0.931
fucP
L-fucose transporter; Mediates the uptake of L-fucose across the boundary membrane with the concomitant transport of protons into the cell (symport system). Can also transport L-galactose and D-arabinose, but at reduced rates compared with L-fucose. Is not able to transport L-rhamnose and L-arabinose.
  
  
 0.886
fucO
L-1,2-propanediol oxidoreductase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process and glycolate metabolic process; Belongs to the iron-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family.
  
  
 0.817
rhaA
L-rhamnose isomerase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process.
 
  
 0.707
xylA
D-xylose isomerase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process and glucose metabolic process; Belongs to the xylose isomerase family.
  
  
 0.653
aldA
Aldehyde dehydrogenase A, NAD-linked; Acts on lactaldehyde as well as other aldehydes.
   
  
 0.628
glpA
Anaerobic sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, large FAD/NAD(P)-binding subunit; Conversion of glycerol 3-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone. Uses fumarate or nitrate as electron acceptor.
 
  
 0.621
