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

mltDPutative membrane-bound lytic murein transglycosylase D; Murein-degrading enzyme. May play a role in recycling of muropeptides during cell elongation and/or cell division (By similarity); Belongs to the transglycosylase Slt family. (452 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
mltF
Membrane-bound lytic transglycosylase F, murein hydrolase; Murein-degrading enzyme that degrades murein glycan strands and insoluble, high-molecular weight murein sacculi, with the concomitant formation of a 1,6-anhydromuramoyl product. Lytic transglycosylases (LTs) play an integral role in the metabolism of the peptidoglycan (PG) sacculus. Their lytic action creates space within the PG sacculus to allow for its expansion as well as for the insertion of various structures such as secretion systems and flagella.

yceG
Septation protein, ampicillin sensitivity; Functions as a peptidoglycan terminase that cleaves nascent peptidoglycan strands endolytically to terminate their elongation. Belongs to the transglycosylase MltG family.
 
  
 0.943
slt
Lytic murein transglycosylase, soluble; Murein-degrading enzyme. Catalyzes the cleavage of the glycosidic bonds between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine residues in peptidoglycan. May play a role in recycling of muropeptides during cell elongation and/or cell division.
 
  
 0.942
mltB
Membrane-bound lytic murein transglycosylase B; Murein-degrading enzyme. Catalyzes the cleavage of the glycosidic bonds between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine residues in peptidoglycan. May play a role in recycling of muropeptides during cell elongation and/or cell division.
  
   
 0.937
mltA
Membrane-bound lytic murein transglycosylase A; Murein-degrading enzyme. May play a role in recycling of muropeptides during cell elongation and/or cell division. Degrades murein glycan strands and insoluble, high-molecular weight murein sacculi.
   
  
 0.932
mltC
Membrane-bound lytic murein transglycosylase C; Murein-degrading enzyme. May play a role in recycling of muropeptides during cell elongation and/or cell division. Belongs to the transglycosylase Slt family.
 
  
 0.922
emtA
Lytic murein endotransglycosylase E; Murein-degrading enzyme. May play a role in recycling of muropeptides during cell elongation and/or cell division. Preferentially cleaves at a distance of more than two disaccharide units from the ends of the glycan chain. Prefers cross-linked murein in vivo; Belongs to the transglycosylase Slt family.
  
  
 0.917
rlpA
Septal ring protein, suppressor of prc, minor lipoprotein; Lytic transglycosylase with a strong preference for naked glycan strands that lack stem peptides; Belongs to the RlpA family.
  
  
 0.900
ampG
Muropeptide transporter; Permease involved in cell wall peptidoglycan recycling. Transports, from the periplasm into the cytoplasm, the disaccharide N-acetylglucosaminyl-beta-1,4-anhydro- N-acetylmuramic acid (GlcNAc-anhMurNAc) and GlcNAc-anhMurNAc-peptides. Transport is dependent on the proton motive force. AmpG is also involved in beta-lactamase induction ; Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily.
   
 
 0.827
mrdA
Penicillin-binding protein 2, transpeptidase involved in peptidoglycan synthesis; Catalyzes cross-linking of the peptidoglycan cell wall. Responsible for the determination of the rod shape of the cell. Is probably required for lateral peptidoglycan synthesis and maintenance of the correct diameter during lateral and centripetal growth. Belongs to the transpeptidase family. MrdA subfamily.
