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
lipZProbable hydrolase; Rv1834, (MTCY1A11.09c), len: 288 aa. Probable lipZ,hydrolase, some similarity to haloalkane dehalogenases and D16262 hypothetical 38.9 kDa protein (335 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 507, E(): 7.6e-28, (33.0% identity in 300 aa overlap). (288 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lipC
Probable esterase LipC; Esterase that can hydrolyze short-chain esters with the carbon chain containing 2 to 10 carbon atoms. Does not have lipase activity. Is highly immunogenic and elicits strong humoral immune responses in both HIV-negative (HIV-) and HIV-positive (HIV+) tuberculosis (TB) patients. Also elicits proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine responses from macrophages and pulmonary epithelial cells. May participate in the progression of active tuberculosis both by contributing to the utilization of lipid substrates for bacterial growth and replication, and by modulating immu [...]

nlhH
Probable non lipolytic carboxylesterase NlhH; Hydrolyzes various short-chain esters, such as triacylglycerols and vinyl esters. Has no activity against emulsified substrates.
  
  
 0.806
lipF
Probable esterase/lipase LipF; Hydrolyzes short-chain esters. Shows maximal activity with triacetin and p-nitrophenyl acetate.
  
  
 0.803
lipV
Possible lipase LipV; Lipase that displays broad substrate specificity and preferentially hydrolyzes p-nitrophenyl myristate in vitro. Also shows significant activity with pNP-butyrate (68%), pNP-octanoate (82%), pNP- decanoate (90%), and pNP-laurate (74%). Is probably involved in lipid catabolism. Is active at low pH, and might play some important role in mycobacterial biology in macrophages where the bacteria encounters acidic stress.
   
  
 0.802
lipY
Triacylglycerol lipase; Responsible for the utilization of stored long-chain triacylglycerol (TG) during dormancy and reactivation stage of the infection cycle. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of long-chain triacylglycerol with high specific activity; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the 'GDXG' lipolytic enzyme family.
     
 0.729
PE_PGRS37
PE-PGRS family protein PE_PGRS37; Rv2126c, (MTCY261.22c), len: 256 aa. PE_PGRS37,Possible PE_PGRS pseudogene fragment, similar to the Gly-rich C-terminus of many members of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis PGRS family.
  
     0.700
dhmA2
Possible haloalkane dehalogenase; Catalyzes hydrolytic cleavage of carbon-halogen bonds in halogenated aliphatic compounds, leading to the formation of the corresponding primary alcohols, halide ions and protons.
 
   
0.667
lipP
Rv2463, (MTV008.19), len: 394 aa. Probable lipP,esterase, lipase similar to others eg O87861|ESTA esterase a from Streptomyces chrysomallus (389 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 964, E(): 1.9e-53, (44.35% identity in 399 aa overlap); Q9I4S7|PA1047 probable esterase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (392 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 863, E(): 4.6e-47,(40.05% identity in 377 aa overlap); Q53403|ESTC esterase III from Pseudomonas fluorescens (382 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 753, E(): 3.9e-40, (36.3% identity in 380 aa overlap); etc.

     0.659
lipD
Probable lipase LipD; Rv1923, (MTCY09F9.41c), len: 446 aa. Probable lipD,hydrolase lipase, similar to esterases and beta-lactamases e.g. G151214 esterase, (389 aa), fasta scores: opt: 569,E(): 5.4e-29, (33.7% identity in 401 aa overlap).
