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

fapRConserved hypothetical protein; Transcriptional factor involved in regulation of membrane lipid biosynthesis by repressing genes involved in fatty acid and phospholipid metabolism. (190 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
plsX
Fatty acid/phospholipid synthesis protein PlsX; Catalyzes the reversible formation of acyl-phosphate (acyl- PO(4)) from acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] (acyl-ACP). This enzyme utilizes acyl-ACP as fatty acyl donor, but not acyl-CoA.
  
  
 0.981
ABD30304.1
Malonyl CoA-acyl carrier protein transacylase.
 
  
 0.963
ABD30305.1
3-oxoacyl-(acyl-carrier-protein) reductase, putative; Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of beta-ketoacyl-ACP substrates to beta-hydroxyacyl-ACP products, the first reductive step in the elongation cycle of fatty acid biosynthesis. Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
  
    0.859
fabI
Enoyl-(acyl-carrier-protein) reductase; Catalyzes the reduction of a carbon-carbon double bond in an enoyl moiety that is covalently linked to an acyl carrier protein (ACP). It has a preference for a long chain (C12) substrate compared to the shorter (C4) acyl group. Involved in the elongation cycle of fatty acid which are used in the lipid metabolism (By similarity).
   
  
 0.693
fabH
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the condensation reaction of fatty acid synthesis by the addition to an acyl acceptor of two carbons from malonyl-ACP. Catalyzes the first condensation reaction which initiates fatty acid synthesis and may therefore play a role in governing the total rate of fatty acid production. Possesses both acetoacetyl-ACP synthase and acetyl transacylase activities. Its substrate specificity determines the biosynthesis of branched-chain and/or straight-chain of fatty acids; Belongs to the thiolase-like superfamily. FabH family.
 
  
 0.676
ABD29374.1
Conserved hypothetical protein; Belongs to the enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase family.
  
 0.655
ctsR
Conserved hypothetical protein; Negative regulator of clpC, clpB and clpP transcription by binding directly and specifically to their promoter region.
  
     0.638
codY
Conserved hypothetical protein; DNA-binding protein that represses the expression of many genes that are induced as cells make the transition from rapid exponential growth to stationary phase. It is a GTP-binding protein that senses the intracellular GTP concentration as an indicator of nutritional limitations. At low GTP concentration it no longer binds GTP and stop to act as a transcriptional repressor; Belongs to the CodY family.
  
   
 0.618
mcsA
UvrB/uvrC motif domain protein; Activates the phosphorylation activity of the protein- arginine kinase McsB (By similarity). May function as an important molecule for oxidative tolerance in various types of stress including that of heavy metals. Binds to Cu(2+), Zn(2+), Co(2+) and Cd(2+) via its CXXC metal binding motifs.
  
     0.599
plsY
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the transfer of an acyl group from acyl-phosphate (acyl-PO(4)) to glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) to form lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). This enzyme utilizes acyl-phosphate as fatty acyl donor, but not acyl-CoA or acyl-ACP.
