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

rpsB30S ribosomal subunit protein S2; Required for ribosomal protein S1 to bind to the 30S subunit. (241 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpsT
30S ribosomal subunit protein S20; Binds directly to 16S ribosomal RNA.

tsf
Translation elongation factor EF-Ts; Associates with the EF-Tu.GDP complex and induces the exchange of GDP to GTP. It remains bound to the aminoacyl-tRNA.EF- Tu.GTP complex up to the GTP hydrolysis stage on the ribosome. (Microbial infection) Promotes the tRNase activity of CdiA-CT from E.coli strain EC869 (CdiA-CT-EC869); required in vivo but less so in vitro. Probably loads charged tRNA onto EF-Tu, making more ternary GTP-EF-Tu-aa-tRNA complexes. The guanine nucleotide exchange factor capacity of this protein does not seem to be needed as no GTP hydrolysis occurs during tRNA cleavag [...]

frr
Ribosome recycling factor; Responsible for the release of ribosomes from messenger RNA at the termination of protein biosynthesis. May increase the efficiency of translation by recycling ribosomes from one round of translation to another.

rpsA
30S ribosomal subunit protein S1; Required for translation of most natural mRNAs except for leaderless mRNA. Binds mRNA upstream of the Shine- Dalgarno (SD) sequence and helps it bind to the 30S ribosomal subunit; acts as an RNA chaperone to unfold structured mRNA on the ribosome but is not essential for mRNAs with strong SDs and little 5'-UTR structure, thus it may help fine-tune which mRNAs that are translated. Unwinds dsRNA by binding to transiently formed ssRNA regions; binds about 10 nucleotides. Has a preference for polypyrimidine tracts. Negatively autoregulates its own translat [...]

rplT
50S ribosomal subunit protein L20; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds close to the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly.
 
 
 0.999
rplY
50S ribosomal subunit protein L25; This is one of the proteins that binds to the 5S RNA in the ribosome where it forms part of the central protuberance. Binds to the 5S rRNA independently of L5 and L18. Not required for binding of the 5S rRNA/L5/L18 subcomplex to 23S rRNA.

rplS
50S ribosomal subunit protein L19; This protein is located at the 30S-50S ribosomal subunit interface. In the 70S ribosome it has been modeled to make two contacts with the 16S rRNA of the 30S subunit forming part of bridges B6 and B8. In the 3.5 A resolved structures L14 and L19 interact and together make contact with the 16S rRNA. The protein conformation is quite different between the 50S and 70S structures, which may be necessary for translocation.

rpsP
30S ribosomal subunit protein S16; In addition to being a ribosomal protein, S16 also has a cation-dependent endonuclease activity.

relA
(p)ppGpp synthetase I/GTP pyrophosphokinase; In eubacteria ppGpp (guanosine 3'-diphosphate 5-' diphosphate) is a mediator of the stringent response which coordinates a variety of cellular activities in response to changes in nutritional abundance. This enzyme catalyzes the formation of pppGpp which is then hydrolyzed to form ppGpp. The second messengers ppGpp and c-di-GMP together control biofilm formation in response to translational stress; ppGpp represses biofilm formation while c-di-GMP induces it. ppGpp activates transcription of CsrA-antagonistic small RNAs CsrB and CsrC, which d [...]
