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

yigC-2Putative oxidoreductase; Catalyzes the decarboxylation of 3-octaprenyl-4-hydroxy benzoate to 2-octaprenylphenol, an intermediate step in ubiquinone biosynthesis. (492 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ubiA
P-hydroxybenzoate: octaprenyltransferase; Catalyzes the prenylation of para-hydroxybenzoate (PHB) with an all-trans polyprenyl group. Mediates the second step in the final reaction sequence of ubiquinone-8 (UQ-8) biosynthesis, which is the condensation of the polyisoprenoid side chain with PHB, generating the first membrane-bound Q intermediate 3-octaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoate.
 
 
 0.990
STM2921
Putative flavoprotein; Involved in the non-oxidative decarboxylation and detoxification of phenolic derivatives. Flavin prenyltransferase that catalyzes the synthesis of the prenylated FMN cofactor (prenyl-FMN) for phenolic acid decarboxylase.
 
 0.989
ubiX
3-octaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoate carboxy-lyase; Flavin prenyltransferase that catalyzes the synthesis of the prenylated FMN cofactor (prenyl-FMN) for 4-hydroxy-3-polyprenylbenzoic acid decarboxylase UbiD. The prenyltransferase is metal-independent and links a dimethylallyl moiety from dimethylallyl monophosphate (DMAP) to the flavin N5 and C6 atoms of FMN.
 
 0.988
ubiE
S-adenosylmethionine; Methyltransferase required for the conversion of demethylmenaquinol (DMKH2) to menaquinol (MKH2) and the conversion of 2-polyprenyl-6-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinol (DDMQH2) to 2-polyprenyl-3- methyl-6-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinol (DMQH2).
 
  
 0.924
visC
Putative monooxygenase; Similar to E. coli orf, hypothetical protein (AAC75944.1); Blastp hit to AAC75944.1 (400 aa), 87% identity in aa 1 - 400.
     
 0.907
trkH
Trk family potassium transport protein; Low-affinity potassium transport system. Interacts with Trk system potassium uptake protein TrkA and requires TrkE for transport activity (By similarity); Belongs to the TrkH potassium transport family.
 
    0.892
ubiH
2-octaprenyl-6-methoxyphynol hydroxylase; Similar to E. coli 2-octaprenyl-6-methoxyphenol--> 2-octaprenyl-6-methoxy-1, 4-benzoquinone (AAC75945.1); Blastp hit to AAC75945.1 (392 aa), 79% identity in aa 1 - 392.
      
 0.781
ubiB
FMN reductase; Catalyzes the reduction of soluble flavins by reduced pyridine nucleotides; Belongs to the Fre/LuxG FAD/NAD(P) flavoprotein oxidoreductase family.
  
    0.765
rfaH
Transcriptional activator; Enhances distal genes transcription elongation in a specialized subset of operons that encode extracytoplasmic components. RfaH is recruited into a multi-component RNA polymerase complex by the ops element, which is a short conserved DNA sequence located downstream of the main promoter of these operons. Once bound, RfaH suppresses pausing and inhibits Rho-dependent and intrinsic termination at a subset of sites. Termination signals are bypassed, which allows complete synthesis of long RNA chains.
  
  
 0.696
yigP
Putative inner membrane protein; Required for ubiquinone (coenzyme Q) biosynthesis under aerobic conditions. Binds hydrophobic ubiquinone biosynthetic intermediates via its SCP2 domain and is essential for the stability of the Ubi complex (By similarity). May constitute a docking platform where Ubi enzymes assemble and access their SCP2-bound polyprenyl substrates (By similarity). Required for intracellular proliferation in macrophages. Belongs to the UbiJ family.
