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

desA3Possible linoleoyl-CoA desaturase (delta(6)-desaturase); Is likely involved in the aerobic desaturation system responsible for the synthesis of oleic acid from stearoyl-CoA; oleic acid is a precursor of mycobacterial membrane phospholipids and triglycerides. Catalyzes the conversion of stearoyl-CoA to oleoyl-CoA by introduction of a cis double bond between carbons 9 and 10 of the acyl chain. Requires the electron transfer partner Rv3230c to pass two electrons from NADPH to its active site diiron center. Is also able to catalyze the 9-desaturation of palmitoyl-CoA to palmitoleoyl-CoA. (427 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Rv3230c
Hypothetical oxidoreductase; Is likely involved in the aerobic desaturation system responsible for the synthesis of oleic acid from stearoyl-CoA; oleic acid is a precursor of mycobacterial membrane phospholipids and triglycerides. Is the electron transfer partner for the stearoyl-CoA 9- desaturase DesA3. Catalyzes electron transfer reaction between NADPH and the diiron center of DesA3. Cannot use NADH.
