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

glfUDP-galactopyranose mutase; Catalyzes the interconversion through a 2-keto intermediate of uridine diphosphogalactopyranose (UDP-GalP) into uridine diphosphogalactofuranose (UDP-GalF) which is a key building block for cell wall construction in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. (399 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
glfT2
Bifunctional UDP-galactofuranosyl transferase GlfT2; Involved in the galactan polymerization of the arabinogalactan (AG) region of the mycolylarabinogalactan-peptidoglycan (mAGP) complex, an essential component of the mycobacteria cell wall. Thus, successively transfers approximately 28 galactofuranosyl (Galf) residues from UDP-galactofuranose (UDP-Galf) onto the galactofuranosyl- galactofuranosyl-rhamnosyl-GlcNAc-diphospho-decaprenol (Galf-Galf-Rha- GlcNAc-PP-C50) acceptor produced by GlfT1, with alternating 1->5 and 1->6 links, forming a galactan domain with approximately 30 galactof [...]

Rv3468c
Rv3468c, (MTCY13E12.21c), len: 364 aa. Possible dTDP-glucose-4,6-dehydratase, but experimental study shown that the purified protein didn't have dTDP-glucose dehydratase (rmlB) activity (see Ma et al., 2001).

galE1
UDP-glucose 4-epimerase; Involved in the metabolism of galactose. Catalyzes the conversion of UDP-galactose (UDP-Gal) to UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) through a mechanism involving the transient reduction of NAD (By similarity).

glfT1
UDP-galactofuranosyl transferase GlfT1; Involved in the biosynthesis of the arabinogalactan (AG) region of the mycolylarabinogalactan-peptidoglycan (mAGP) complex, an essential component of the mycobacterial cell wall. Catalyzes the transfer of the first two galactofuranosyl (Galf) units from UDP- galactofuranose (UDP-Galf) onto the rhamnosyl-GlcNAc-diphospho- decaprenol (Rha-GlcNAc-PP-C50) acceptor, yielding galactofuranosyl- galactofuranosyl-rhamnosyl-GlcNAc-diphospho-decaprenol (Galf-Galf-Rha- GlcNAc-PP-C50). Thus, GlfT1 is the initiator of galactan synthesis, while GlfT2 continues [...]
