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

malMMaltose regulon periplasmic protein; Not yet known. Might function in the uptake of a still unidentified substrate; To S.typhimurium MalM. (306 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lamB
Maltose outer membrane porin (maltoporin); Involved in the transport of maltose and maltodextrins, indispensable for translocation of dextrins containing more than three glucosyl moieties. A hydrophobic path ('greasy slide') of aromatic residues serves to guide and select the sugars for transport through the channel. Also acts as a receptor for several bacteriophages including lambda.
 
  
 0.999
malK
Maltose ABC transportor ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Maltooligosaccharide importer (TC 3.A.1.1.1) family.
  
  
 0.996
malF
Maltose transporter subunit; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
  
  
 0.995
malG
Maltose transporter subunit; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
  
  
 0.992
malE
Maltose transporter subunit; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Binds maltose and higher maltodextrins such as maltotriose. Belongs to the bacterial solute-binding protein 1 family.
  
  
 0.971
malQ
4-alpha-glucanotransferase (amylomaltase); Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process and polysaccharide catabolic process; Belongs to the disproportionating enzyme family.
   
  
 0.715
ubiA
P-hydroxybenzoate octaprenyltransferase; Catalyzes the prenylation of para-hydroxybenzoate (PHB) with an all-trans polyprenyl group. Mediates the second step in the final reaction sequence of ubiquinone-8 (UQ-8) biosynthesis, which is the condensation of the polyisoprenoid side chain with PHB, generating the first membrane-bound Q intermediate 3-octaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoate. Geranyldiphosphate (GPP), all-trans- farnesyldiphosphate (FPP) and all-trans-solanesyldiphosphate (SPP) are also accepted as side chain precursors. Belongs to the UbiA prenyltransferase family.
    
 0.656
ubiC
Chorismate pyruvate-lyase; Removes the pyruvyl group from chorismate, with concomitant aromatization of the ring, to provide 4-hydroxybenzoate (4HB) for the ubiquinone pathway.
      0.652
ssuD
Alkanesulfonate monooxygenase, FMNH(2)-dependent; Involved in desulfonation of aliphatic sulfonates. Catalyzes the conversion of pentanesulfonic acid to sulfite and pentaldehyde and is able to desulfonate a wide range of sulfonated substrates including C-2 to C-10 unsubstituted linear alkanesulfonates, substituted ethanesulfonic acids and sulfonated buffers; Belongs to the SsuD family.
      
 0.457
malP
Maltodextrin phosphorylase; Phosphorylase is an important allosteric enzyme in carbohydrate metabolism. Enzymes from different sources differ in their regulatory mechanisms and in their natural substrates. However, all known phosphorylases share catalytic and structural properties.
