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

nanKN-acetylmannosamine kinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc) to ManNAc-6-P. Has also low level glucokinase activity in vitro. Belongs to the ROK (NagC/XylR) family. NanK subfamily. (291 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
nanE
Putative N-acetylmannosamine-6-P epimerase; Converts N-acetylmannosamine-6-phosphate (ManNAc-6-P) to N- acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate (GlcNAc-6-P).
 
 0.999
nanA
N-acetylneuraminate lyase; Catalyzes the reversible aldol cleavage of N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid; Neu5Ac) to form pyruvate and N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc) via a Schiff base intermediate; Belongs to the DapA family. NanA subfamily.
 
 
 0.998
yhcH
DUF386 family protein, cupin superfamily.
  
  
 0.991
nanT
Sialic acid transporter; Catalyzes the proton-dependent transport of sialic acid. Can transport the common sialic acid N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) and the related sialic acids N- glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) and 3-keto-3-deoxy-D-glycero-D- galactonononic acid (KDN). Functions as a bidirectional transporter in vitro. Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Sialate:H(+) symporter (SHS) (TC 2.A.1.12) family.
 
  
 0.974
alsK
D-allose kinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of D-allose to D-allose 6- phosphate. Has also low level glucokinase activity in vitro. Belongs to the ROK (NagC/XylR) family.
  
  
 0.912
nagB
Glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase; Catalyzes the reversible isomerization-deamination of glucosamine 6-phosphate (GlcN6P) to form fructose 6-phosphate (Fru6P) and ammonium ion; Belongs to the glucosamine/galactosamine-6-phosphate isomerase family. NagB subfamily.
  
  
 0.905
nanR
Sialic acid-inducible nan operon repressor; Transcriptional repressor that controls expression of the genes required for the catabolism of sialic acids. Represses expression of the nanATEK- yhcH, nanCMS and yjhBC operons. Acts by binding directly to the Nan box, a region of approximately 30 bp covering the promoter region.
 
   
 0.866
nagA
N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate deacetylase; Involved in the first step in the biosynthesis of amino- sugar-nucleotides. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the N-acetyl group of N- acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate (GlcNAc-6-P) to yield glucosamine 6- phosphate and acetate. In vitro, can also hydrolyze substrate analogs such as N-thioacetyl-D-glucosamine-6-phosphate, N-trifluoroacetyl-D- glucosamine-6-phosphate, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine-6-sulfate, N-acetyl-D- galactosamine-6-phosphate, and N-formyl-D-glucosamine-6-phosphate.
 
  
 0.850
nanM
N-acetylneuraminic acid mutarotase; Converts alpha-N-acetylneuranimic acid (Neu5Ac) to the beta- anomer, accelerating the equilibrium between the alpha- and beta- anomers. Probably facilitates sialidase-negative bacteria to compete sucessfully for limited amounts of extracellular Neu5Ac, which is likely taken up in the beta-anomer. In addition, the rapid removal of sialic acid from solution might be advantageous to the bacterium to damp down host responses; Belongs to the NanM family.
 
  
 0.810
nanC
N-acetylnuraminic acid outer membrane channel protein; Outer membrane channel protein allowing the entry of N- acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac, the most abundant sialic acid on host cell surfaces) into the bacteria (Probable). NanC proteins form high- conductance channels which are open at low membrane potentials and which have a weak anion selectivity; Belongs to the oligogalacturonate-specific porin KdgM (TC 1.B.35) family. NanC subfamily.
