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

sodCPeriplasmic superoxide dismutase [Cu-Zn] SodC; Destroys radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems. May play a role in favoring mycobacterial survival in phagocytes (By similarity). (240 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
qcrA
Probable rieske iron-sulfur protein QcrA; Iron-sulfur subunit of the cytochrome bc1 complex, an essential component of the respiratory electron transport chain required for ATP synthesis. The bc1 complex catalyzes the oxidation of menaquinol and the reduction of cytochrome c in the respiratory chain. The bc1 complex operates through a Q-cycle mechanism that couples electron transfer to generation of the proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis.
   
 
 0.997
qcrB
Probable ubiquinol-cytochrome C reductase QcrB (cytochrome B subunit); Cytochrome b subunit of the cytochrome bc1 complex, an essential component of the respiratory electron transport chain required for ATP synthesis. The bc1 complex catalyzes the oxidation of ubiquinol and the reduction of cytochrome c in the respiratory chain. The bc1 complex operates through a Q-cycle mechanism that couples electron transfer to generation of the proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis. The cytochrome b subunit contains two ubiquinol reactive sites: the oxidation (QP) site and the reduction (QN) site.

Rv2876
Rv2876, (MTCY274.07), len: 104 aa. Possible conserved transmembrane protein, equivalent (but longer 16 aa) to Q9CBU2|ML1584 possible conserved membrane protein from Mycobacterium leprae (84 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 444,E(): 8.3e-26, (73.85% identity in 88 aa overlap). A core mycobacterial gene; conserved in mycobacterial strains (See Marmiesse et al., 2004).

sodA
Superoxide dismutase [FE] SodA; Destroys superoxide anion radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems.
  
 
 0.985
katG
Catalase-peroxidase-peroxynitritase T KatG; Bifunctional enzyme with both catalase and broad-spectrum peroxidase activity, oxidizing various electron donors including NADP(H). Protects M.tuberculosis against toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) including hydrogen peroxide as well as organic peroxides and thus contributes to its survival within host macrophages by countering the phagocyte oxidative burst. Also displays efficient peroxynitritase activity, which may help the bacterium to persist in macrophages. Catalyzes the oxidative activation of the antitubercular pro- drug isoniazid (I [...]

Rv0433
Conserved hypothetical protein; ATP-dependent carboxylate-amine ligase which exhibits weak glutamate--cysteine ligase activity; Belongs to the glutamate--cysteine ligase type 2 family. YbdK subfamily.
  
    0.907
ctaD
Probable cytochrome C oxidase polypeptide I CtaD (cytochrome AA3 subunit 1); Cytochrome c oxidase is the component of the respiratory chain that catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to water. Subunits 1-3 form the functional core of the enzyme complex. CO I is the catalytic subunit of the enzyme. Electrons originating in cytochrome c are transferred via the copper A center of subunit 2 and heme A of subunit 1 to the bimetallic center formed by heme A3 and copper B (By similarity).
   
 
 0.907
ahpC
Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase C protein AhpC (alkyl hydroperoxidase C); Thiol-specific peroxidase that catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and alcohols, respectively. Plays a role in cell protection against oxidative stress by detoxifying peroxides. Together with AhpD, DlaT and Lpd, constitutes an NADH-dependent peroxidase active against hydrogen and alkyl peroxides as well as serving as a peroxynitrite reductase, thus protecting the bacterium against reactive nitrogen intermediates and oxidative stress generated by the host immune system. D [...]

ctaC
Probable transmembrane cytochrome C oxidase (subunit II) CtaC; Subunits I and II form the functional core of the enzyme complex. Electrons originating in cytochrome c are transferred via heme a and Cu(A) to the binuclear center formed by heme a3 and Cu(B) (By similarity).

ctaE
Rv2193, (MTCY190.04), len: 203 aa. Probable ctaE,cytochrome c oxidase polypeptide III (cox3), with strong similarity to others e.g. COX3_SYNY3|Q06475 (29.8% identity in 225 aa overlap).
