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

puuBGamma-glutamylputrescine oxidoreductase; Involved in the breakdown of putrescine via the oxidation of L-glutamylputrescine. (426 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
puuA
Glutamate--putrescine ligase; Involved in the breakdown of putrescine via the biosynthesis of gamma-L-glutamylputrescine. It is able to use several diamines, spermidine and spermine. Absolutely essential to utilize putrescine as both nitrogen and carbon sources and to decrease the toxicity of putrescine, which can lead to inhibition of cell growth and protein synthesis; Belongs to the glutamine synthetase family.
 
 
 0.999
puuC
Gamma-glutamyl-gamma-aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the oxidation of 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde (3-HPA) to 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP). It acts preferentially with NAD but can also use NADP. 3-HPA appears to be the most suitable substrate for PuuC followed by isovaleraldehyde, propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde, and valeraldehyde. It might play a role in propionate and/or acetic acid metabolisms. Also involved in the breakdown of putrescine through the oxidation of gamma-Glu-gamma-aminobutyraldehyde to gamma-Glu-gamma-aminobutyrate (gamma-Glu-GABA).
 
 
 0.999
puuE
4-aminobutyrate aminotransferase, PLP-dependent; Catalyzes the transfer of the amino group from gamma- aminobutyrate (GABA) to alpha-ketoglutarate (KG) to yield succinic semialdehyde (SSA). PuuE is important for utilization of putrescine as the sole nitrogen or carbon source; Belongs to the class-III pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
 
  
 0.993
puuD
Gamma-glutamyl-gamma-aminobutyrate hydrolase; Involved in the breakdown of putrescine via hydrolysis of the gamma-glutamyl linkage of gamma-glutamyl-gamma-aminobutyrate.
 
  
 0.988
puuR
Repressor for the divergent puu operons, putrescine inducible; Represses puuA, puuD and puuP.
 
  
 0.904
puuP
Putrescine importer; Involved in the uptake of putrescine. Belongs to the amino acid-polyamine-organocation (APC) superfamily.
 
  
 0.836
gabT
4-aminobutyrate aminotransferase, PLP-dependent; Pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes transamination between primary amines and alpha-keto acids. Catalyzes the transfer of the amino group from gamma-aminobutyrate (GABA) to alpha-ketoglutarate (KG) to yield succinic semialdehyde (SSA) and glutamate. Thereby functions in a GABA degradation pathway that allows some E.coli strains to utilize GABA as a nitrogen source for growth. Also catalyzes the conversion of 5-aminovalerate to glutarate semialdehyde, as part of a L-lysine degradation pathway that proceeds via cadaverine, [...]
 
  
 0.763
speB
Agmatinase; Catalyzes the formation of putrescine from agmatine.
 
  
 0.742
hcaD
Phenylpropionate dioxygenase, ferredoxin reductase subunit; Part of the multicomponent 3-phenylpropionate dioxygenase, that converts 3-phenylpropionic acid (PP) and cinnamic acid (CI) into 3-phenylpropionate-dihydrodiol (PP-dihydrodiol) and cinnamic acid- dihydrodiol (CI-dihydrodiol), respectively; Belongs to the bacterial ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase ferredoxin reductase family.
  
 
 0.670
gabD
Succinate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase I, NADP-dependent; Catalyzes the NADP(+)-dependent oxidation of succinate semialdehyde to succinate. Thereby functions in a GABA degradation pathway that allows some E.coli strains to utilize GABA as a nitrogen source for growth. Also catalyzes the conversion of glutarate semialdehyde to glutarate, as part of a L- lysine degradation pathway that proceeds via cadaverine, glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate.
