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

Score
appYHTH-type transcriptional regulator AppY; Induces the synthesis of acid phosphatase (AppA) and several other polypeptides (such as AppBC) during the deceleration phase of growth. It also acts as a transcriptional repressor for one group of proteins that are synthesized preferentially in exponential growth and for one group synthesized only in the stationary phase. Also involved in the stabilization of the sigma stress factor RpoS during stress conditions. (249 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rzpD
DLP12 prophage; Necessary for host cell lysis. It is believed to code for an endopeptidase that cleaves the amino-carboxyl cross-link between the diaminopimelic acid and D-alanine residues in the murein component of the bacterial cell wall (By similarity).
      
 0.731
yidL
Putative ARAC-type regulatory protein; Protein involved in transcription activator activity and transcription.
  
 
 
 0.716
rhaR
Transcriptional activator of rhaSR; Activates expression of the rhaSR operon in response to L- rhamnose.
  
  
 0.660
appA
Phosphoanhydride phosphorylase; pH 2.5 acid phosphatase; periplasmic; Protein involved in phosphorus metabolic process and response to starvation.
   
  
 0.626
alpA
CP4-57 prophage; Positive regulator of the expression of the slpA gene. When overexpressed, leads to suppression of the capsule overproduction and UV sensitivity phenotypes of cells mutant for the Lon ATP-dependent protease. Part of the cryptic P4-like prophage CP4-57. Overexpression of AlpA leads to excision of the CP4-57 prophage by IntA. This inactivates ssrA (the gene upstream of the prophage) that encodes tmRNA which is required to rescue stalled ribosomes in a process known as trans- translation.
      
 0.624
iraD
RpoS stabilzer after DNA damage, anti-RssB factor; Inhibits RpoS proteolysis by regulating RssB activity, thereby increasing the stability of the sigma stress factor RpoS during oxidative stress. Its effect on RpoS stability is due to its interaction with RssB, which probably blocks the interaction of RssB with RpoS, and the consequent delivery of the RssB-RpoS complex to the ClpXP protein degradation pathway; Belongs to the GpW/Gp25 family. IraD subfamily.
      
 0.624
iraM
Anti-adapter protein IraM; Inhibits RpoS proteolysis by regulating RssB activity, thereby increasing the stability of the sigma stress factor RpoS during magnesium starvation. May also be involved in the early steps of isoprenoid biosynthesis, possibly through its role as RssB regulator.
      
 0.623
yfjZ
CP4-57 prophage; Antitoxin component of a type IV toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Antitoxin that counteracts the effect of cognate toxin YpjF. Also counteracts the effect of non-cognate toxins CbtA and YfkI.
      
 0.620
rpoS
RNA polymerase, sigma S (sigma 38) 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 master transcriptional regulator of the stationary phase and the general stress response. Controls, positively or negatively, the expression of several hundred genes, which are mainly involved in metabolism, transport, regulation and stress management.
      
 0.601
rclR
Reactive chlorine species (RCS)-specific activator of the rcl genes; Involved in reactive chlorine species (RCS) stress resistance. Upregulates, in response to hypochlorous acid (HOCl), the expression of three genes essential for survival of RCS stress (rclA, rclB and rclC) and its own expression.
