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

phoBResponse regulator in two-component regulatory system with PhoR; This protein is a positive regulator for the phosphate regulon. Transcription of this operon is positively regulated by PhoB and PhoR when phosphate is limited. (229 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
phoR
Sensory histidine kinase in two-component regulatory system with PhoB; Member of the two-component regulatory system PhoR/PhoB involved in the phosphate regulon genes expression. PhoR may function as a membrane-associated protein kinase that phosphorylates PhoB in response to environmental signals.
 0.999
phoU
Negative regulator of PhoR/PhoB two-component regulator; Part of the phosphate (Pho) regulon, which plays a key role in phosphate homeostasis. Encoded together with proteins of the phosphate-specific transport (Pst) system in the polycistronic pstSCAB- phoU operon. PhoU is essential for the repression of the Pho regulon at high phosphate conditions. In this role, it may bind, possibly as a chaperone, to PhoR, PhoB or a PhoR-PhoB complex to promote dephosphorylation of phospho-PhoB, or inhibit formation of the PhoR- PhoB transitory complex. Is also part of complex networks important for [...]

rpoD
RNA polymerase, sigma 70 (sigma D) factor; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is the primary sigma factor during exponential growth. Preferentially transcribes genes associated with fast growth, such as ribosomal operons, other protein-synthesis related genes, rRNA- and tRNA-encoding genes and prfB. Belongs to the sigma-70 factor family. RpoD/SigA subfamily.
   
 
 0.964
pstS
Phosphate ABC transporter periplasmic binding protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex PstSACB involved in phosphate import; Belongs to the PstS family.
  
  
 0.925
phoA
Alkaline phosphatase; start codon corrected; Protein involved in phosphorus metabolic process; Belongs to the alkaline phosphatase family.
   
  
 0.919
phoQ
Sensory histidine kinase in two-component regulatory system with PhoP; Member of the two-component regulatory system PhoP/PhoQ involved in adaptation to low Mg(2+) environments and the control of acid resistance genes. In low periplasmic Mg(2+), PhoQ functions as a membrane-associated protein kinase that undergoes autophosphorylation and subsequently transfers the phosphate to PhoP, resulting in the expression of PhoP-activated genes (PAG) and repression of PhoP- repressed genes (PRG). In high periplasmic Mg(2+), acts as a protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates phospho-PhoP, resulti [...]
 
 
 0.895
creC
Sensory histidine kinase in two-component regulatory system with CreB or PhoB; Member of the two-component regulatory system CreC/CreB involved in catabolic regulation. CreC may function as a membrane- associated protein kinase that phosphorylates CreB in response to environmental signals. CreC can also phosphorylate PhoB.
 
 0.886
phoE
Outer membrane porin PhoE; Uptake of inorganic phosphate, phosphorylated compounds, and some other negatively charged solutes; Belongs to the Gram-negative porin family.
   
  
 0.885
pstB
Phosphate ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex PstSACB involved in phosphate import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Phosphate importer (TC 3.A.1.7) family.
 
  
 0.872
envZ
Sensory histidine kinase in two-component regulatory system with OmpR; Member of the two-component regulatory system EnvZ/OmpR involved in osmoregulation (particularly of genes ompF and ompC) as well as other genes. EnvZ functions as a membrane-associated protein kinase that phosphorylates OmpR in response to environmental signals; at low osmolarity OmpR activates ompF transcription, while at high osmolarity it represses ompF and activates ompC transcription. Also dephosphorylates OmpR in the presence of ATP. The cytoplasmic dimerization domain (CDD) forms an osmosensitive core; increa [...]
