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.

lipYTriacylglycerol 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. (437 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
tgs1
Triacylglycerol synthase (diacylglycerol acyltransferase) Tgs1; Catalyzes the terminal and only committed step in triacylglycerol synthesis by using diacylglycerol and fatty acyl CoA as substrates. Required for storage lipid synthesis (Probable).

Rv3480c
Possible triacylglycerol synthase (diacylglycerol acyltransferase); Upon expression in E.coli has a weak triacylglycerol synthase function, making triacylglycerol (TG) from diolein and long-chain fatty acyl-CoA. Also functions weakly as a wax synthase, as it incorporates palmityl alcohol into wax esters in the presence of palmitoyl-CoA.

Rv0183
Possible lysophospholipase; Involved in the hydrolysis of exogenous host lipids during chronic infection. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of both monoacylglycerols (MAG) and diacylglycerols (DAG). It hydrolyzes 2-MAG, 1-3-MAG and MAG with short, medium and long chain fatty acids such as 1-monobutyroyl- rac-glycerol (MC4), 1-mono-octanoyl-rac-glycerol (MC8), 1-monodecanoyl- rac-glycerol (MC10), 1-monolauroyl-rac-glycerol (MC12), 1- monomyristoyl-rac-glycerol (MC14) and 1-mono-oleyl-rac-glycerol (MC18:1). Also able to hydrolyze DAG with short (DiC6) and medium (DiC10) fatty acid chains, but not [...]

tgs4
Putative triacylglycerol synthase (diacylglycerol acyltransferase) Tgs4; Required for maintaining the appropriate mycolic acid composition and permeability of the envelope on its exposure to acidic pH. Upon expression in E.coli functions as a triacylglycerol synthase, making triacylglycerol (TG) from diolein and long-chain fatty acyl-CoA. Has very weak wax synthase activity, incorporating palmityl alcohol into wax esters in the presence of palmitoyl-CoA.
