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
ptaProbable phosphate acetyltransferase Pta (phosphotransacetylase); Involved in acetate metabolism; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the phosphate acetyltransferase and butyryltransferase family. (690 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ackA
Probable acetate kinase AckA (acetokinase); Catalyzes the formation of acetyl phosphate from acetate and ATP. Can also catalyze the reverse reaction; Belongs to the acetokinase family.

korA
Probable oxidoreductase (alpha subunit); Component of KG oxidoreductase (KOR) that catalyzes the CoA- dependent oxidative decarboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate (alpha- ketoglutarate, KG) to succinyl-CoA. Methyl viologen can act as electron acceptor in vitro; the physiologic electron acceptor is unknown. Is involved in the alternative TCA pathway that functions concurrently with fatty acid beta-oxidation. Since a growing body of evidence indicates that lipids (for example cholesterol and fatty acids) are a predominant growth substrate for M.tuberculosis during infection, flux through KOR li [...]

glcB
Malate synthase G GlcB; Involved in the glycolate utilization. Catalyzes the condensation and subsequent hydrolysis of acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl- CoA) and glyoxylate to form malate and CoA.
  
 
 0.986
glmU
Probable UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase GlmU; Catalyzes the last two sequential reactions in the de novo biosynthetic pathway for UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc). The C- terminal domain catalyzes the transfer of acetyl group from acetyl coenzyme A to glucosamine-1-phosphate (GlcN-1-P) to produce N- acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate (GlcNAc-1-P), which is converted into UDP-GlcNAc by the transfer of uridine 5-monophosphate (from uridine 5- triphosphate), a reaction catalyzed by the N-terminal domain.
  
 
 0.968
acs
Acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase; Catalyzes the conversion of acetate into acetyl-CoA (AcCoA), an essential intermediate at the junction of anabolic and catabolic pathways. AcsA undergoes a two-step reaction. In the first half reaction, AcsA combines acetate with ATP to form acetyl-adenylate (AcAMP) intermediate. In the second half reaction, it can then transfer the acetyl group from AcAMP to the sulfhydryl group of CoA, forming the product AcCoA. M.tuberculosis may use AcsA for both acetate and propionate assimilation; Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.

korB
Probable oxidoreductase (beta subunit); Component of KG oxidoreductase (KOR) that catalyzes the CoA- dependent oxidative decarboxylation of 2-oxoglutarate (alpha- ketoglutarate, KG) to succinyl-CoA. Methyl viologen can act as electron acceptor in vitro; the physiologic electron acceptor is unknown. Is involved in the alternative TCA pathway that functions concurrently with fatty acid beta-oxidation. Since a growing body of evidence indicates that lipids (for example cholesterol and fatty acids) are a predominant growth substrate for M.tuberculosis during infection, flux through KOR lik [...]

bkdC
Probable branched-chain keto acid dehydrogenase E2 component BkdC; Component of the branched-chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKADH) complex, that catalyzes the overall conversion of branched- chain alpha-ketoacids to acyl-CoA and CO(2).
  
 
 0.955
hsaG
Probable acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (acetaldehyde dehydrogenase [acetylating]); Catalyzes the conversion of acetaldehyde to acetyl-CoA, using NAD(+) and coenzyme A. Is the final enzyme in the meta-cleavage pathway for the degradation of aromatic compounds.
