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

RPIARibose 5-phosphate isomerase A; Belongs to the ribose 5-phosphate isomerase family. (311 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
TALDO1
Transaldolase; Transaldolase is important for the balance of metabolites in the pentose-phosphate pathway.
  
 0.998
RPE
Ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase; Catalyzes the reversible epimerization of D-ribulose 5- phosphate to D-xylulose 5-phosphate.
  
 0.998
RPEL1
Ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase-like protein 1; Catalyzes the reversible epimerization of D-ribulose 5- phosphate to D-xylulose 5-phosphate; Belongs to the ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase family.
  
 0.996
PGD
6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, decarboxylating; Catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of 6-phosphogluconate to ribulose 5-phosphate and CO(2), with concomitant reduction of NADP to NADPH.
   
 
 0.995
TKT
Transketolase; Catalyzes the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor, via a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate; Belongs to the transketolase family.
  
 0.995
TKTL2
Transketolase-like protein 2; Plays an essential role in total transketolase activity and cell proliferation in cancer cells; after transfection with anti-TKTL1 siRNA, total transketolase activity dramatically decreases and proliferation was significantly inhibited in cancer cells. Plays a pivotal role in carcinogenesis; Belongs to the transketolase family.
   
 0.993
TKTL1
Transketolase-like protein 1; Catalyzes the transfer of a two-carbon ketol group from a ketose donor to an aldose acceptor, via a covalent intermediate with the cofactor thiamine pyrophosphate; Belongs to the transketolase family.
   
 0.993
RBKS
Ribokinase; 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. Belongs to the carbohydrate kinase PfkB family. Ribokinase subfamily.
    
 0.975
PRPS1
Ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase 1; Catalyzes the synthesis of phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) that is essential for nucleotide synthesis; Belongs to the ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase family.
  
 
 0.961
PRPS1L1
Ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase 3; Catalyzes the synthesis of phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) that is essential for nucleotide synthesis.
