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

rbsKRibokinase, putative; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of ribose at O-5 in a reaction requiring ATP and magnesium. The resulting D-ribose-5-phosphate can then be used either for sythesis of nucleotides, histidine, and tryptophan, or as a component of the pentose phosphate pathway. (304 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rbsD
Ribose ABC transporter protein, putative; Catalyzes the interconversion of beta-pyran and beta-furan forms of D-ribose.
 
  
 0.998
prs
Ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase, putative; Involved in the biosynthesis of the central metabolite phospho-alpha-D-ribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) via the transfer of pyrophosphoryl group from ATP to 1-hydroxyl of ribose-5-phosphate (Rib- 5-P); Belongs to the ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase family. Class I subfamily.
    
 0.936
rpiA
Ribose 5-phosphate isomerase, putative; Catalyzes the reversible conversion of ribose-5-phosphate to ribulose 5-phosphate.
 
 
 0.933
ABD30434.1
Transketolase; Belongs to the transketolase family.
   
 0.911
pdxS
Pyridoxine biosynthesis protein; Catalyzes the formation of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate from ribose 5-phosphate (RBP), glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) and ammonia. The ammonia is provided by the PdxT subunit. Can also use ribulose 5- phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate as substrates, resulting from enzyme-catalyzed isomerization of RBP and G3P, respectively. Belongs to the PdxS/SNZ family.
   
 
 0.890
deoB
Phosphopentomutase; Phosphotransfer between the C1 and C5 carbon atoms of pentose; Belongs to the phosphopentomutase family.
   
 
 0.889
pgcA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the interconversion between glucose-6-phosphate and alpha-glucose-1-phosphate (Probable). This is the first step in the biosynthesis of diglucosyl-diacylglycerol (Glc2-DAG), i.e. the predominant glycolipid found in the S.aureus membrane, which is also used as a membrane anchor for lipoteichoic acid (LTA). Belongs to the phosphohexose mutase family.
   
 
 0.889
pdxT
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of glutamine to glutamate and ammonia as part of the biosynthesis of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. The resulting ammonia molecule is channeled to the active site of PdxS.
     
 0.888
lacB
Galactose-6-phosphate isomerase, LacB subunit.
  
 
 0.834
ABD29387.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
 
 
 0.813
