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

mbtLAcyl carrier protein (ACP) MbtL; Acyl carrier protein involved in the formation of acyl-S-ACP intermediates within the mycobactin biosynthesis process. The aliphatic chains carried by ACP are subsequently transferred on to the mycobactin core by MbtK. (106 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fas
Rv2524c, (MTCY159.32, MTV009.09c), len: 3069 aa. Probable fas, Fatty Acid Synthase, equivalent to Q9X7E2|fas|ML1191 putative type I fatty acid synthase from Mycobacterium leprae (3076 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 17484,E(): 0, (85.8% identity in 3081 aa overlap). Also similar to others e.g. Q04846|fas|Q59497 from Corynebacterium ammoniagenes (Brevibacterium ammoniagenes) (3104 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 3981, E(): 5.5e-203, (49.8% identity in 3099 aa overlap); Q48926|fas from Mycobacterium bovis (2796 aa),FASTA scores: opt: 2098, E(): 3.9e-103, (59.7% identity in 2862 aa overlap) (see Fernande [...]

mbtM
Probable fatty acyl-AMP ligase MbtM; Activates lipidic moieties required for mycobactin biosynthesis. Converts medium- to long-chain aliphatic fatty acids into acyl adenylate, which is further transferred on to the phosphopantetheine arm of the carrier protein MbtL. Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.
  
 
 0.964
mbtN
Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase MbtN; Catalyzes the dehydrogenation at the alpha-beta position of ACP-bound acyl chains. This results in the introduction of a double bond in the lipidic chain, which is further transferred to the epsilon- amino group of lysine residue in the mycobactin core by MbtK. Belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family.

acpM
Meromycolate extension acyl carrier protein AcpM; Acyl carrier protein involved in meromycolate extension. Belongs to the acyl carrier protein (ACP) family.
   
 
 0.908
mbtB
Phenyloxazoline synthase MbtB (phenyloxazoline synthetase); Involved in the initial steps of the mycobactin biosynthetic pathway. Putatively couples activated salicylic acid with serine or threonine and cyclizes this precursor to the hydroxyphenyloxazoline ring system present in this class of siderophores. Essential for growth in macrophages; Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family. MbtB subfamily.

nuoC
Probable NADH dehydrogenase I (chain C) NuoC (NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase chain C); NDH-1 shuttles electrons from NADH, via FMN and iron-sulfur (Fe-S) centers, to quinones in the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme in this species is believed to be a menaquinone. Couples the redox reaction to proton translocation (for every two electrons transferred, four hydrogen ions are translocated across the cytoplasmic membrane), and thus conserves the redox energy in a proton gradient; Belongs to the complex I 30 kDa subunit family.

nuoB
Probable NADH dehydrogenase I (chain B) NuoB (NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase chain B); NDH-1 shuttles electrons from NADH, via FMN and iron-sulfur (Fe-S) centers, to quinones in the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme in this species is believed to be a menaquinone. Couples the redox reaction to proton translocation (for every two electrons transferred, four hydrogen ions are translocated across the cytoplasmic membrane), and thus conserves the redox energy in a proton gradient.

nuoI
Probable NADH dehydrogenase I (chain I) NuoI (NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase chain I); NDH-1 shuttles electrons from NADH, via FMN and iron-sulfur (Fe-S) centers, to quinones in the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme in this species is believed to be menaquinone. Couples the redox reaction to proton translocation (for every two electrons transferred, four hydrogen ions are translocated across the cytoplasmic membrane), and thus conserves the redox energy in a proton gradient.

fabD
Rv2243, (MTCY427.24), len: 302 aa. FabD (alternate gene name: mtFabD), malonyl CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase (see citations below), highly similar to e.g. A57356 acyl-CoA carrier protein malonyltransferase from Streptomyces coelicolor (316 aa), FASTA score: opt: 955,E(): 0, (52.6% identity in 304 aa overlap); FABD_HAEIN|P43712 malonyl CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase from Haemophilus influenzae, FASTA score: (30.5% identity in 308 aa overlap); and FABD_ECOLI|P25715 from Escherichia coli, FASTA score: (31.4% identity in 309 aa overlap).

nuoE
Probable NADH dehydrogenase I (chain E) NuoE (NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase chain E); NDH-1 shuttles electrons from NADH, via FMN and iron-sulfur (Fe-S) centers, to quinones in the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme in this species is believed to be menaquinone. Couples the redox reaction to proton translocation (for every two electrons transferred, four hydrogen ions are translocated across the cytoplasmic membrane), and thus conserves the redox energy in a proton gradient (By similarity).
