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

glcBMalate synthase G GlcB; Involved in the glycolate utilization. Catalyzes the condensation and subsequent hydrolysis of acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl- CoA) and glyoxylate to form malate and CoA. (741 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
icl1
Isocitrate lyase Icl (isocitrase) (isocitratase); Involved in the persistence and virulence of M.tuberculosis. Catalyzes the reversible formation of succinate and glyoxylate from isocitrate, a key step of the glyoxylate cycle, which operates as an anaplerotic route for replenishing the tricarboxylic acid cycle during growth on fatty acid substrates. It could also catalyze the formation of pyruvate and succinate from 2-methylisocitrate, a key step in the methylcitrate cycle (propionate degradation route) (By similarity).
  
 
 0.999
aceAb
Probable isocitrate lyase AceAb [second part] (isocitrase) (isocitratase) (Icl); Together with AceAa, they could catalyze the formation of succinate and glyoxylate from isocitrate.
  
 
 0.994
aceAa
Probable isocitrate lyase AceAa [first part] (isocitrase) (isocitratase) (Icl); Together with AceAb, they could catalyze the formation of succinate and glyoxylate from isocitrate.

gltA2
Rv0896, (MTCY31.24), len: 431 aa. Probable gltA2,citrate synthase 1, highly similar to O33066|NP_302405.1|NC_002677 citrate synthase 1 from Mycobacterium leprae (431 aa), FASTA scores: E(): 0, (91.0 identity in 431 aa overlap); and AAF04133.1|AF191033_1|AF191033 citrate synthase from Mycobacterium smegmatis (441 aa). Also highly similar to others e.g. AAF14286.1|AF181118_1|AF181118 citrate synthase from Streptomyces coelicolor (429 aa); P42457|CISY_CORGL citrate synthase from Corynebacterium glutamicum (437 aa),FASTA scores: opt: 1847, E(): 0, (63.0% identity in 433 aa overlap); etc. A [...]

pta
Probable phosphate acetyltransferase Pta (phosphotransacetylase); Involved in acetate metabolism; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the phosphate acetyltransferase and butyryltransferase family.
  
 
 0.986
fum
Probable fumarase Fum (fumarate hydratase); Involved in the TCA cycle. Catalyzes the stereospecific interconversion of fumarate to L-malate; Belongs to the class-II fumarase/aspartase family. Fumarase subfamily.
  
 
 0.986
prpC
Probable methylcitrate synthase PrpC; Involved in the catabolism of short chain fatty acids (SCFA) via the tricarboxylic acid (TCA)(acetyl degradation route) and via the 2-methylcitrate cycle I (propionate degradation route). Catalyzes the Claisen condensation of propionyl-CoA and oxaloacetate (OAA) to yield 2-methylcitrate (2-MC) and CoA. Also catalyzes the condensation of oxaloacetate with acetyl-CoA.
  
 0.981
citA
Probable citrate synthase II CitA; Rv0889c, (MTCY31.17c), len: 373 aa. Probable citA (alternate gene name: gltA), citrate synthase 2, highly similar to others e.g. CAB95899.1|AL359988 putative citrate synthase from Streptomyces coelicolor (387 aa); P39119|CISY_BACSU citrate synthase II from Bacillus subtilis (366 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 586, E(): 5.8e-30,(33.8% identity in 367 aa overlap); etc. Also similar to Rv0896|MTCY31.24 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (29.2% identity in 274 aa overlap) and Rv1131. Contains PS00480 Citrate synthase signature. Belongs to the citrate synthase family.
  
 0.976
acs
Acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase; Catalyzes the conversion of acetate into acetyl-CoA (AcCoA), an essential intermediate at the junction of anabolic and catabolic pathways. AcsA undergoes a two-step reaction. In the first half reaction, AcsA combines acetate with ATP to form acetyl-adenylate (AcAMP) intermediate. In the second half reaction, it can then transfer the acetyl group from AcAMP to the sulfhydryl group of CoA, forming the product AcCoA. M.tuberculosis may use AcsA for both acetate and propionate assimilation; Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP-binding enzyme family.
