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

ahpDAlkyl hydroperoxide reductase D protein AhpD (alkyl hydroperoxidase D); Antioxidant protein with alkyl hydroperoxidase activity. Required for the reduction of the AhpC active site cysteine residues and for the regeneration of the AhpC enzyme activity. (177 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ahpC
Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase C protein AhpC (alkyl hydroperoxidase C); Thiol-specific peroxidase that catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and alcohols, respectively. Plays a role in cell protection against oxidative stress by detoxifying peroxides. Together with AhpD, DlaT and Lpd, constitutes an NADH-dependent peroxidase active against hydrogen and alkyl peroxides as well as serving as a peroxynitrite reductase, thus protecting the bacterium against reactive nitrogen intermediates and oxidative stress generated by the host immune system. D [...]

dlaT
DlaT, dihydrolipoamide acyltransferase, E2 component of pyruvate dehydrogenase; Component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex, that catalyzes the overall conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA and CO(2). Appears to be essential for Mtb pathogenesis.
   
  
 0.880
sodA
Superoxide dismutase [FE] SodA; Destroys superoxide anion radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems.
  
  
 0.731
ahpE
Probable peroxiredoxin AhpE; Thiol-specific peroxidase that catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and alcohols, respectively. Plays a role in cell protection against oxidative stress by detoxifying peroxides. May represent an important antioxidant defense against cytotoxic peroxides, especially peroxynitrite, which can be formed by activated macrophages during infection. Belongs to the peroxiredoxin family. AhpE subfamily.
  
  
 0.665
katG
Catalase-peroxidase-peroxynitritase T KatG; Bifunctional enzyme with both catalase and broad-spectrum peroxidase activity, oxidizing various electron donors including NADP(H). Protects M.tuberculosis against toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) including hydrogen peroxide as well as organic peroxides and thus contributes to its survival within host macrophages by countering the phagocyte oxidative burst. Also displays efficient peroxynitritase activity, which may help the bacterium to persist in macrophages. Catalyzes the oxidative activation of the antitubercular pro- drug isoniazid (I [...]
   
  
 0.659
sodC
Periplasmic superoxide dismutase [Cu-Zn] SodC; Destroys radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems. May play a role in favoring mycobacterial survival in phagocytes (By similarity).
  
  
 0.639
oxyR
Rv2427A, Pseudogene oxyR', inactivated by multiple mutations; identical to sequence in u16243 (see Deretic et al., 1995).
     
 0.578
cysN
Sulfate adenylyltransferase subunit 1; ATP sulfurylase may be the GTPase, regulating ATP sulfurylase activity; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the APS kinase family.

Rv1874
Unknown protein; Rv1874, (MTCY180.44c), len: 228 aa. Unknown protein.
 
    0.480
Rv0477
Rv0477, (MTCY20G9.03), len: 148 aa. Possible conserved secreted protein, equivalent to CAC31969.1|AL583925 hypothetical protein from Mycobacterium leprae (123 aa). Also similar to G83406|PA1914 conserved hypothetical protein from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (408 aa). Contains possible N-terminal signal sequence. A core mycobacterial gene; conserved in mycobacterial strains (See Marmiesse et al., 2004); To M.leprae ML2452.
