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
metE5-methyltetrahydropteroyltriglutamate-- homocysteine methyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from 5- methyltetrahydrofolate to homocysteine resulting in methionine formation; Belongs to the vitamin-B12 independent methionine synthase family. (756 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
metK
S-adenosylmethionine synthetase; Catalyzes the formation of S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) from methionine and ATP. The overall synthetic reaction is composed of two sequential steps, AdoMet formation and the subsequent tripolyphosphate hydrolysis which occurs prior to release of AdoMet from the enzyme.

KKF37951.1
Cystathionine beta-lyase; Catalyzes the formation of L-homocysteine from cystathionine; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
 
 0.981
metL
Aspartate kinase; Multifunctional homodimeric enzyme that catalyzes the phosphorylation of aspartate to form aspartyl-4-phosphate as well as conversion of aspartate semialdehyde to homoserine; functions in a number of amino acid biosynthetic pathways; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
 
 0.975
luxS
S-ribosylhomocysteinase; Involved in the synthesis of autoinducer 2 (AI-2) which is secreted by bacteria and is used to communicate both the cell density and the metabolic potential of the environment. The regulation of gene expression in response to changes in cell density is called quorum sensing. Catalyzes the transformation of S-ribosylhomocysteine (RHC) to homocysteine (HC) and 4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentadione (DPD). Belongs to the LuxS family.

KKF36940.1
Catalyzes the formation of cystathionine from L-cysteine and O-succinyl-L-homoserine; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
 
 0.972
thrA
Aspartate kinase; Multifunctional homotetrameric enzyme that catalyzes the phosphorylation of aspartate to form aspartyl-4-phosphate as well as conversion of aspartate semialdehyde to homoserine; functions in a number of amino acid biosynthetic pathways; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
   
 
 0.951
thrB
Serine kinase; Catalyzes the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of L-homoserine to L-homoserine phosphate; Belongs to the GHMP kinase family. Homoserine kinase subfamily.
   
 
 0.948
ilvA
Threonine dehydratase; Catalyzes the anaerobic formation of alpha-ketobutyrate and ammonia from threonine in a two-step reaction. The first step involved a dehydration of threonine and a production of enamine intermediates (aminocrotonate), which tautomerizes to its imine form (iminobutyrate). Both intermediates are unstable and short-lived. The second step is the nonenzymatic hydrolysis of the enamine/imine intermediates to form 2- ketobutyrate and free ammonia. In the low water environment of the cell, the second step is accelerated by RidA.
  
 
 0.947
metG
methionine--tRNA ligase; Is required not only for elongation of protein synthesis but also for the initiation of all mRNA translation through initiator tRNA(fMet) aminoacylation.
     
 0.945
cysK
Cysteine synthase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the cysteine synthase/cystathionine beta- synthase family.
