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

Score
ppkPolyphosphate kinase; Catalyzes the reversible transfer of the terminal phosphate of ATP to form a long-chain polyphosphate (polyP); Belongs to the polyphosphate kinase 1 (PPK1) family. (688 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ppx
Exopolyphosphatase; Degradation of inorganic polyphosphates (polyP). Releases orthophosphate processively from the ends of the polyP chain.
  
 0.998
ppa
Inorganic pyrophosphatase; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) forming two phosphate ions.
     
 0.940
gppA
Guanosine pentaphosphatase; Catalyzes the conversion of pppGpp to ppGpp. Guanosine pentaphosphate (pppGpp) is a cytoplasmic signaling molecule which together with ppGpp controls the 'stringent response', an adaptive process that allows bacteria to respond to amino acid starvation, resulting in the coordinated regulation of numerous cellular activities.
  
 0.919
purN
Polyphosphate kinase; Catalyzes the transfer of a formyl group from 10- formyltetrahydrofolate to 5-phospho-ribosyl-glycinamide (GAR), producing 5-phospho-ribosyl-N-formylglycinamide (FGAR) and tetrahydrofolate.
      0.833
purM
AIR synthetase; similar to E. coli phosphoribosylaminoimidazole synthetase = AIR synthetase (AAC75552.1); Blastp hit to AAC75552.1 (345 aa), 91% identity in aa 1 - 345.
 
  
 0.760
phoU
Regulatory gene for high affinity phosphate uptake; Part of the phosphate (Pho) regulon, which plays a key role in phosphate homeostasis. PhoU is essential for the repression of the Pho regulon at high phosphate conditions.
  
  
 0.747
pstA
ABC superfamily (membrane); similar to E. coli high-affinity phosphate-specific transport system (AAC76749.1); Blastp hit to AAC76749.1 (296 aa), 95% identity in aa 1 - 296.
  
  
 0.598
relA
(p)ppGpp synthetase I; In eubacteria ppGpp (guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5-' diphosphate) is a mediator of the stringent response that coordinates a variety of cellular activities in response to changes in nutritional abundance.
   
  
 0.575
pstC
High-affinity phosphate transporter; Part of the binding-protein-dependent transport system for phosphate; probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane; Belongs to the binding-protein-dependent transport system permease family. CysTW subfamily.
     
 0.568
polA
DNA polymerase I; In addition to polymerase activity, this DNA polymerase exhibits 3'-5' and 5'-3' exonuclease activity. It is able to utilize nicked circular duplex DNA as a template and can unwind the parental DNA strand from its template.
  
  
 0.565
