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
Rv1341Conserved protein; Pyrophosphatase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleoside triphosphates to their monophosphate derivatives, with a high preference for the non-canonical purine nucleotides XTP (xanthosine triphosphate), dITP (deoxyinosine triphosphate) and ITP. Seems to function as a house-cleaning enzyme that removes non-canonical purine nucleotides from the nucleotide pool, thus preventing their incorporation into DNA/RNA and avoiding chromosomal lesions. Belongs to the HAM1 NTPase family. (204 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rphA
Probable ribonuclease RphA (RNase PH) (tRNA nucleotidyltransferase); Phosphorolytic 3'-5' exoribonuclease that plays an important role in tRNA 3'-end maturation. Removes nucleotide residues following the 3'-CCA terminus of tRNAs; can also add nucleotides to the ends of RNA molecules by using nucleoside diphosphates as substrates, but this may not be physiologically important. Probably plays a role in initiation of 16S rRNA degradation (leading to ribosome degradation) during starvation.
 
    0.993
guaA
Probable GMP synthase [glutamine-hydrolyzing] GuaA (glutamine amidotransferase) (GMP synthetase); Catalyzes the synthesis of GMP from XMP.
 
 
 0.975
murI
Probable glutamate racemase MurI; Provides the (R)-glutamate required for cell wall biosynthesis.
 
    0.960
ndkA
Probable nucleoside diphosphate kinase NdkA (NDK) (NDP kinase) (nucleoside-2-P kinase); Major role in the synthesis of nucleoside triphosphates other than ATP. The ATP gamma phosphate is transferred to the NDP beta phosphate via a ping-pong mechanism, using a phosphorylated active-site intermediate; Belongs to the NDK family.
  
 0.938
guaB2
Inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the conversion of inosine 5'-phosphate (IMP) to xanthosine 5'-phosphate (XMP), the first committed and rate-limiting step in the de novo synthesis of guanine nucleotides, and therefore plays an important role in the regulation of cell growth. Does not catalyze the reverse reaction, i.e. the conversion of XMP to IMP. Appears to be essential for the optimal growth of M.tuberculosis. Belongs to the IMPDH/GMPR family.
 
 0.935
guaB1
Probable inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase GuaB1(imp dehydrogenase) (IMPDH) (IMPD); Has no inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase activity. Belongs to the IMPDH/GMPR family.
  
 0.934
guaB3
Uncharacterized oxidoreductase Rv3410c; Has no inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase activity. Belongs to the IMPDH/GMPR family.
  
 0.926
mazG
Conserved protein; Required to maintain the full capacity of the mycobacterium to respond to oxidative stress via the degradation of oxidation-induced damaged nucleotides. Hydrolyzes all canonical (d)NTPs, as well as mutagenic dUTP and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate (8-oxo-dGTP). Also involved in the transcriptional activation of RelA in response to oxidative stress; Belongs to the nucleoside triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase family.

hpt
Rv3624c, (MTCY15C10.28), len: 216 aa. Hpt (alternate gene name: hprT), hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (but seems to have a 35 aa extension at N-terminus), equivalent to other mycobacterial hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferases e.g. P96794 from Mycobacterium avium (203 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1136,E(): 1.2e-65, (88.5% identity in 200 aa overlap); and O69537|HPT|ML0214 from Mycobacterium leprae (213 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1115, E(): 2.8e-64, (81.6% identity in 212 aa overlap). Also similar to others e.g. Q9X8I5|SCE9.12c from Streptomyces coelicolor (187 aa), FA [...]
