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

coq-1COenzyme Q (Ubiquinone) biosynthesis; Belongs to the FPP/GGPP synthase family. (393 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
coq-2
4-hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, mitochondrial; Catalyzes the prenylation of para-hydroxybenzoate (PHB) with an all-trans polyprenyl group. Mediates the second step in the final reaction sequence of coenzyme Q (CoQ) biosynthesis, which is the condensation of the polyisoprenoid side chain with PHB, generating the first membrane-bound Q intermediate; Belongs to the UbiA prenyltransferase family.
  
 
 0.995
fdps-1
Farnesyl DiPhosphate Synthetase; Belongs to the FPP/GGPP synthase family.
   
 0.993
coq-5
2-methoxy-6-polyprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol methylase, mitochondrial; Methyltransferase required for the conversion of 2- polyprenyl-6-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinol (DDMQH2) to 2-polyprenyl-3-methyl- 6-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinol (DMQH2).
 
 
 0.987
coq-8
Atypical kinase coq-8, mitochondrial; Atypical kinase involved in the biosynthesis of coenzyme Q, also named ubiquinone, an essential lipid-soluble electron transporter for aerobic cellular respiration. Its substrate specificity is unclear: either acts as protein kinase that phosphorylates other proteins in the CoQ complex to stabilize their interactions or acts as a small molecule kinase that phosphorylates a prenyl lipid in the ubiquinone biosynthesis pathway.
  
 
 0.982
coq-3
Ubiquinone biosynthesis O-methyltransferase, mitochondrial; O-methyltransferase that catalyzes the 2 O-methylation steps in the ubiquinone biosynthetic pathway; Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. UbiG/COQ3 family.
  
 
 0.974
coq-6
Ubiquinone biosynthesis monooxygenase COQ6, mitochondrial; FAD-dependent monooxygenase required for the C5-ring hydroxylation during ubiquinone biosynthesis. Catalyzes the hydroxylation of 3-polyprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid to 3-polyprenyl- 4,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid. The electrons required for the hydroxylation reaction may be funneled indirectly from NADPH via a ferredoxin/ferredoxin reductase system to COQ6; Belongs to the UbiH/COQ6 family.
  
 
 0.971
coq-4
Ubiquinone biosynthesis protein coq-4, mitochondrial; Component of the coenzyme Q biosynthetic pathway. May play a role in organizing a multi-subunit COQ enzyme complex required for coenzyme Q biosynthesis. Required for steady-state levels of other COQ polypeptides; Belongs to the COQ4 family.
      
 0.969
T01G1.4
Alkyl transferase; Belongs to the UPP synthase family.
  
 
 0.967
Y48B6A.13
Diphosphomevalonate decarboxylase; Performs the first committed step in the biosynthesis of isoprenes.
  
 0.954
fnta-1
FarNesylTransferase, Alpha subunit.
     
 0.953
