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

nanEPutative N-acetylmannosamine-6-P epimerase; Converts N-acetylmannosamine-6-phosphate (ManNAc-6-P) to N- acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate (GlcNAc-6-P). (229 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
nanK
N-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.
 
 0.999
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.
 
  
 0.990
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.
 
  
 0.989
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.
 
  
 0.989
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.
 
 
 0.986
yhcH
DUF386 family protein, cupin superfamily.
 
  
 0.971
nagK
N-acetyl-D-glucosamine kinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) derived from cell-wall degradation, yielding GlcNAc-6-P. Has also low level glucokinase activity in vitro. Belongs to the ROK (NagC/XylR) family. NagK subfamily.
 
 
 0.964
nagE
N-acetyl glucosamine specific PTS enzyme IIC, IIB, and IIA components; The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system (sugar PTS), a major carbohydrate active transport system, catalyzes the phosphorylation of incoming sugar substrates concomitantly with their translocation across the cell membrane. This system is involved in N-acetylglucosamine transport. It can also transport and phosphorylate the antibiotic streptozotocin. Could play a significant role in the recycling of peptidoglycan.
   
 0.958
murQ
N-acetylmuramic acid 6-phosphate (MurNAc-6-P) etherase; Specifically catalyzes the cleavage of the D-lactyl ether substituent of MurNAc 6-phosphate, producing GlcNAc 6-phosphate and D- lactate. Is required for growth on MurNAc as the sole source of carbon and energy. Together with AnmK, is also required for the utilization of anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid (anhMurNAc) either imported from the medium or derived from its own cell wall murein, and thus plays a role in cell wall recycling.
 
  
 0.932
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.
