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

Score
glpFGlycerol facilitator; Transporter of glycerol across the cytoplasmic membrane, with limited permeability to water and small uncharged compounds such as polyols; Belongs to the MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family. (281 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
glpK
Glycerol kinase; Key enzyme in the regulation of glycerol uptake and metabolism. Catalyzes the phosphorylation of glycerol to yield sn- glycerol 3-phosphate. It also catalyzes the phosphorylation of dihydroxyacetone, L-glyceraldehyde and D-glyceraldehyde. It uses only ATP; Belongs to the FGGY kinase family.
 
 0.999
glpD
Sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, aerobic, FAD/NAD(P)-binding; Conversion of glycerol 3-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone. Uses molecular oxygen or nitrate as electron acceptor.
  
 0.991
glpQ
Glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase, periplasmic; Glycerophosphoryl diester phosphodiesterase hydrolyzes deacylated phospholipids to G3P and the corresponding alcohols.
  
 
 0.981
glpT
Sn-glycerol-3-phosphate transporter; Responsible for glycerol-3-phosphate uptake.
 
  
 0.976
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.
  
 0.941
tpiA
Triosephosphate isomerase; Involved in the gluconeogenesis. Catalyzes stereospecifically the conversion of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) to D- glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P); Belongs to the triosephosphate isomerase family.
   
 
 0.905
ybcF
Putative carbamate kinase; Protein involved in arginine biosynthetic process and pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthetic process.
      
 0.898
gmk
Guanylate kinase; Essential for recycling GMP and indirectly, cGMP. Belongs to the guanylate kinase family.
      
 0.891
aroE
Dehydroshikimate reductase, NAD(P)-binding; Involved in the biosynthesis of the chorismate, which leads to the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids. Catalyzes the reversible NADPH linked reduction of 3-dehydroshikimate (DHSA) to yield shikimate (SA). It displays no activity in the presence of NAD.
      
 0.827
glpX
Fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase II; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to fructose 6-phosphate. Is likely to be involved in gluconeogenesis during growth on glycerol. Also displays a low activity toward glucose 1,6-bisphosphate, and no activity against ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, or fructose 1-phosphate.
