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

lspAProlipoprotein signal peptidase (signal peptidase II); This protein specifically catalyzes the removal of signal peptides from prolipoproteins. (164 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ileS
isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase; Catalyzes the attachment of isoleucine to tRNA(Ile). As IleRS can inadvertently accommodate and process structurally similar amino acids such as valine, to avoid such errors it has two additional distinct tRNA(Ile)-dependent editing activities. One activity is designated as 'pretransfer' editing and involves the hydrolysis of activated Val-AMP. The other activity is designated 'posttransfer' editing and involves deacylation of mischarged Val-tRNA(Ile).

lgt
Phosphatidylglycerol-prolipoprotein diacylglyceryl transferase; Catalyzes the transfer of the diacylglyceryl group from phosphatidylglycerol to the sulfhydryl group of the N-terminal cysteine of a prolipoprotein, the first step in the formation of mature lipoproteins.
 
  
 0.952
lnt
Apolipoprotein N-acyltransferase; Catalyzes the phospholipid dependent N-acylation of the N- terminal cysteine of apolipoprotein, the last step in lipoprotein maturation. Utilizes a two-step reaction via a ping-pong mechanism. Lnt undergoes covalent modification in the presence of phospholipids, resulting in a thioester acyl-enzyme intermediate. It then transfers the acyl chain to the amine group of the N-terminal diacylglyceryl-modified cysteine of apolipoprotein, leading to the formation of mature triacylated lipoprotein. In vitro, can utilize the phospholipids phosphatidylethanolami [...]

lepB
Leader peptidase (signal peptidase I); Belongs to the peptidase S26 family.
  
  
 0.939
lolA
Lipoprotein chaperone; Participates in the translocation of lipoproteins from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. Only forms a complex with a lipoprotein if the residue after the N-terminal Cys is not an aspartate (The Asp acts as a targeting signal to indicate that the lipoprotein should stay in the inner membrane); the inner membrane retention signal functions at the release step.
   
  
 0.856
fkpB
FKBP-type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (rotamase); PPIases accelerate the folding of proteins. Substrate specificity investigated with 'Suc-Ala-Xaa-Pro-Phe-4-nitroanilide' where Xaa is the amino acid tested, was found to be Phe > Leu >> Ile > Lys = Ala > Trp > His >> Gln.
  
  
 0.842
lolB
Lipoprotein localization factor; Plays a critical role in the incorporation of lipoproteins in the outer membrane after they are released by the LolA protein. Essential for E.coli viability; Belongs to the LolB family.
      
 0.842
ribF
Bifunctional riboflavin kinase/FAD synthetase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of riboflavin to FMN followed by the adenylation of FMN to FAD; Belongs to the RibF family.
 
  
 0.799
lpp
Murein lipoprotein; An outer membrane lipoprotein that controls the distance between the inner and outer membranes; adding residues to Lpp increases the width of the periplasm. The only protein known to be covalently linked to the peptidoglycan network (PGN). Also non-covalently binds the PGN. The link between the cell outer membrane and PGN contributes to the maintenance of the structural and functional integrity of the cell envelope, and maintains the correct distance between the PGN and the outer membrane. The most adundant cellular protein, there can be up to 10(6) Lpp molecules pe [...]
      
 0.788
ispH
4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl diphosphate reductase, 4Fe-4S protein; Catalyzes the conversion of 1-hydroxy-2-methyl-2-(E)-butenyl 4-diphosphate (HMBPP) into a mixture of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP). Acts in the terminal step of the DOXP/MEP pathway for isoprenoid precursor biosynthesis. In vitro, can also hydrate acetylenes to aldehydes and ketones via anti-Markovnikov/Markovnikov addition. Belongs to the IspH family.
