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

prsRibose-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. (321 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpiA
Ribose 5-phosphate isomerase, putative; Catalyzes the reversible conversion of ribose-5-phosphate to ribulose 5-phosphate.
  
 
 0.948
glmU
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase; Catalyzes the last two sequential reactions in the de novo biosynthetic pathway for UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc). The C- terminal domain catalyzes the transfer of acetyl group from acetyl coenzyme A to glucosamine-1-phosphate (GlcN-1-P) to produce N- acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate (GlcNAc-1-P), which is converted into UDP-GlcNAc by the transfer of uridine 5-monophosphate (from uridine 5- triphosphate), a reaction catalyzed by the N-terminal domain. In the C-terminal section; belongs to the transferase hexapeptide repeat family.
 
  
 0.946
ABD30434.1
Transketolase; Belongs to the transketolase family.
   
 
 0.944
rbsK
Ribokinase, 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.
    
 0.936
purF
Amidophosphoribosyltransferase; Catalyzes the formation of phosphoribosylamine from phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) and glutamine; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the purine/pyrimidine phosphoribosyltransferase family.
  
 0.935
ABD30161.1
Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, E1 component, pyruvate dehydrogenase beta subunit, putative.
   
 0.918
ABD30691.1
2-oxoisovalerate dehydrogenase, E1 component, beta subunit, putative.
   
 0.918
hisG
ATP phosphoribosyltransferase, putative; Catalyzes the condensation of ATP and 5-phosphoribose 1- diphosphate to form N'-(5'-phosphoribosyl)-ATP (PR-ATP). Has a crucial role in the pathway because the rate of histidine biosynthesis seems to be controlled primarily by regulation of HisG enzymatic activity. Belongs to the ATP phosphoribosyltransferase family. Short subfamily.
  
 
 0.918
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.
  
 0.917
pyrE
Orotate phosphoribosyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of a ribosyl phosphate group from 5- phosphoribose 1-diphosphate to orotate, leading to the formation of orotidine monophosphate (OMP).
