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

leuA2-isopropylmalate synthase; Catalyzes the condensation of the acetyl group of acetyl-CoA with 3-methyl-2-oxobutanoate (2-oxoisovalerate) to form 3-carboxy-3- hydroxy-4-methylpentanoate (2-isopropylmalate); Belongs to the alpha-IPM synthase/homocitrate synthase family. LeuA type 1 subfamily. (509 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
leuB
3-isopropylmalate dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the oxidation of 3-carboxy-2-hydroxy-4- methylpentanoate (3-isopropylmalate) to 3-carboxy-4-methyl-2- oxopentanoate. The product decarboxylates to 4-methyl-2 oxopentanoate. Belongs to the isocitrate and isopropylmalate dehydrogenases family. LeuB type 1 subfamily.
 
 0.999
leuC
3-isopropylmalate dehydratase, large subunit; Catalyzes the isomerization between 2-isopropylmalate and 3- isopropylmalate, via the formation of 2-isopropylmaleate.
 
 
 0.999
leuD
3-isopropylmalate dehydratase, small subunit; Catalyzes the isomerization between 2-isopropylmalate and 3- isopropylmalate, via the formation of 2-isopropylmaleate. Belongs to the LeuD family. LeuD type 1 subfamily.
 
 
 0.999
ilvC
Ketol-acid reductoisomerase; Involved in the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA). Catalyzes an alkyl-migration followed by a ketol-acid reduction of (S)-2-acetolactate (S2AL) to yield (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate. In the isomerase reaction, S2AL is rearranged via a Mg-dependent methyl migration to produce 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-ketobutyrate (HMKB). In the reductase reaction, this 2-ketoacid undergoes a metal-dependent reduction by NADPH to yield (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate.
 
  
 0.997
ilvD
Dihydroxy-acid dehydratase; Belongs to the IlvD/Edd family.
 
 
 0.993
ABD31320.1
Acetolactate synthase, large subunit, biosynthetic type.
 
 
 0.959
ABD31321.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
 
 
 0.938
ilvA
Thereonine dehydratase, putative; Catalyzes the anaerobic formation of alpha-ketobutyrate and ammonia from threonine in a two-step reaction. The first step involved a dehydration of threonine and a production of enamine intermediates (aminocrotonate), which tautomerizes to its imine form (iminobutyrate). Both intermediates are unstable and short-lived. The second step is the nonenzymatic hydrolysis of the enamine/imine intermediates to form 2- ketobutyrate and free ammonia. In the low water environment of the cell, the second step is accelerated by RidA (By similarity).

ABD29684.1
Branched-chain amino acid aminotransferase.
  
 0.834
ABD31849.1
Pyruvate oxidase, putative; Belongs to the TPP enzyme family.
