  1. Locus tag: gene identifier of the predicted GT used as query in STRING to obtain a query-dependent subnetwork. Localization: indicates whether the query-GT was predicted to be a cytoplasmic (C) or a transmembrane protein (TM). Enriched GO categories: GO categories enriched amongst the members of the query-dependent subnetwork of the indicated query-GT. Only categories showing an enrichment value of p < 0.05 are shown (according to a hypergeometric test corrected for multiple testing using False Discovery Rate). Membrane association: refers to edges between the query-GT and members of its subnetwork predicted to be transmembrane proteins. Partner GTs: predicted/experimentally validated GTs that belong to the subnetwork of the query-GT. Proposed substrate class of the query-GT: inferred from the GO enrichment analysis of the query-dependent subnetwork of the indicated query-GT derived from STRING. Novel substrate predictions derived from this study are indicated by a star (*) next to the locus tag of the corresponding query-GT. Potential protein substrate: it refers to edges between the query-GT and members of its subnetwork predicted to have N- or O-glycosylation sites. Such proteins are therefore suggested to be potential substrates of the query-GT in the cases where proteins are the proposed substrate. Evidence: level of evidence for the predicted substrate class of the query-GT. Conservation: shows significant sequence conservation with a GT for which the substrate specificity has been experimentally validated in closely related species. Experimental validation: the substrate specificity of the GT has been experimentally validated in Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. Reference: publication(s) supporting the predicted substrate class of the query-GT.
