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

lpqTRv1016c, (MTCY10G2.33), len: 226 aa. Probable lpqT,conserved lipoprotein. Similar to several Mycobacterium tuberculosis hypothetical proteins e.g. Rv0040c|Y0H3_MYCTU|P71697 Proline rich 28 kDA antigen (310 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 329, E(): 2e-17, (32.3% identity in 229 aa overlap); Rv0583c. Contains PS00013 Prokaryotic membrane lipoprotein lipid attachment site. A core mycobacterial gene; conserved in mycobacterial strains (See Marmiesse et al., 2004). (226 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
prsA
Ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the central metabolite phospho-alpha-D-ribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) and of the decaprenylphosphoryl-arabinose (DPA), an essential precursor for the mycobacterial cell wall biosynthesis. Catalyzes the transfer of pyrophosphoryl group from ATP to 1-hydroxyl of ribose-5-phosphate (Rib- 5-P) to yield phosphoribosyl diphosphate (PRPP) and AMP. It can also use GTP, CTP and UTP as diphosphoryl donors.
  
    0.833
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.
  
    0.748
rplY
50S ribosomal protein L25 RplY; This is one of the proteins that binds to the 5S RNA in the ribosome where it forms part of the central protuberance. Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL25 family. CTC subfamily.
  
    0.735
pth
Probable peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase Pth; The natural substrate for this enzyme may be peptidyl-tRNAs which drop off the ribosome during protein synthesis. Belongs to the PTH family.
  
    0.730
lpqB
Probable conserved lipoprotein LpqB; May modulate activity of the MtrAB system in controlling homeostasis of the cell wall and cell division (By similarity). Partially restores antibiotic resistance to M.smegmatis in which this gene has been disrupted.
   
  
 0.700
lprA
Possible lipoprotein LprA; Constitutes a host TLR2 agonist (toll-like receptor), shown experimentally for human and mouse. In host cells full-length (acylated) protein acts as a TLR2 agonist, inducing human and murine macrophages to produce cytokines, inducing murine dendritic cell maturation and cytokine production and inhibiting antibody processing in murine macrophages. Binds diacylated phosphatidyl-myo-inositol mannosides (PIMs). Does not induce murine macrophage apoptosis or necrosis. Non- acylated protein does not act as a TLR2 agonist. Requires only host TLR2 as receptors to eli [...]
   
  
 0.697
Rv1019
Probable transcriptional regulatory protein (probably TetR-family); Rv1019, (MTCY10G2.30c), len: 197 aa. Probable transcriptional regulator, similar to many memebers of the TetR family e.g. MTCY7D11.18c (34.4% identity in 189 aa overlap). Helix turn helix motif from aa 27-48 (+5.42 SD).
  
    0.667
lprF
Probable conserved lipoprotein LprF; Might be involved in transporting short diacylated glycolipids to the cell outer membrane (By similarity). Overexpression induces expression of sensor protein kdpD gene at low K(+) concentrations (0 and 250 uM, tested in M.smegatis). Belongs to the LppX/LprAFG lipoprotein family.
   
  
 0.598
lppR
Rv2403c, (MTCY253.17), len: 251 aa. Probable lppR,conserved lipoprotein, with weak similarity with mycobacterial serine/threonine protein kinases e.g. AAK45563|MT1304 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain CDC1551 (626 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 186, E(): 0.00023,(24.4% identity in 238 aa overlap), and the C-terminal part of Q11053|Rv1266c|MTCY50.16|PKNH_MYCTU from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (626 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 185, E()= 0.00027, (24.35% identity in 238 aa overlap). Has signal peptide and appropriate positioned prokaryotic lipoprotein attachment site (PS00013). Could belong to th [...]

lpqI
Probable conserved lipoprotein LpqI; Plays a role in peptidoglycan recycling by cleaving the terminal beta-1,4-linked N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) from peptidoglycan fragments. Acts as a regulator for GlcNAc-MurNAc levels by cleaving disaccharides and allowing the breakdown of MurNAc.
