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

mdfAMultidrug efflux system protein; Efflux pump driven by the proton motive force. Confers resistance to a broad spectrum of chemically unrelated drugs. Confers resistance to a diverse group of cationic or zwitterionic lipophilic compounds such as ethidium bromide, tetraphenylphosphonium, rhodamine, daunomycin, benzalkonium, rifampicin, tetracycline, puromycin, and to chemically unrelated, clinically important antibiotics such as chloramphenicol, erythromycin, and certain aminoglycosides and fluoroquinolones. Overexpression results in isopropyl-beta-D- thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) exclusi [...] (410 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpsL
30S ribosomal subunit protein S12; With S4 and S5 plays an important role in translational accuracy. Cryo-EM studies suggest that S12 contacts the EF-Tu bound tRNA in the A-site during codon-recognition. This contact is most likely broken as the aminoacyl-tRNA moves into the peptidyl transferase center in the 50S subunit; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS12 family.

mdtK
Multidrug efflux system transporter; Multidrug efflux pump that probably functions as a Na(+)/drug antiporter. Confers resistance to many drugs such as fluoroquinolones (norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, enoxacin) and tetraphenylphosphonium ion (TPP). Also to deoxycholate, doxorubicin, trimethoprim, chloramphenicol, fosfomycin, ethidium bromide and benzalkonium. Also able to export peptides; when overexpressed, allows cells deleted for multiple peptidases (pepA, pepB, pepD and pepN) to grow in the presence of dipeptides Ala-Gln or Gly-Tyr which otherwise inhibit growth. Cells overexpressing [...]

emrB
Multidrug efflux system protein; Part of the tripartite efflux system EmrAB-TolC, which confers resistance to antibiotics such as CCCP, FCCP, 2,4-dinitrophenol and nalidixic acid.
   
  
 0.827
tolC
Transport channel; Outer membrane channel, which is required for the function of several efflux systems such as AcrAB-TolC, AcrEF-TolC, EmrAB-TolC and MacAB-TolC. These systems are involved in export of antibiotics and other toxic compounds from the cell. TolC is also involved in import of colicin E1 into the cells.
   
  
 0.812
gyrA
DNA gyrase (type II topoisomerase), subunit A; A type II topoisomerase that negatively supercoils closed circular double-stranded (ds) DNA in an ATP-dependent manner to maintain chromosomes in an underwound state. This makes better substrates for topoisomerase IV (ParC and ParE) which is the main enzyme that unlinks newly replicated chromosomes in E.coli. Gyrase catalyzes the interconversion of other topological isomers of dsDNA rings, including catenanes. Relaxes negatively supercoiled DNA in an ATP-independent manner. E.coli gyrase has higher supercoiling activity than many other bac [...]
      
 0.811
lacZ
beta-D-galactosidase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 2 family.
      
 0.809
sugE
Multidrug efflux system protein; Guanidinium ion exporter. Couples guanidinium export to the proton motive force, exchanging one guanidinium ion for two protons. Overexpression leads to resistance to a subset of toxic quaternary ammonium compounds such as cetylpyridinium, cetyldimethylethyl ammonium and cetrimide cations. Belongs to the drug/metabolite transporter (DMT) superfamily. Small multidrug resistance (SMR) (TC 2.A.7.1) family. Gdx/SugE subfamily.
   
  
 0.809
gmr
cyclic-di-GMP phosphodiesterase; Part of a signaling cascade that regulates curli biosynthesis. The cascade is composed of two cyclic-di-GMP (c-di-GMP) control modules, in which c-di-GMP controlled by the DgcE/PdeH pair (module I) regulates the activity of the DgcM/PdeR pair (module II), which in turn regulates activity of the transcription factor MlrA and expression of the master biofilm regulator csgD. PdeR acts as a trigger enzyme that connects modules I and II. It inhibits DgcM and MlrA by direct interaction. Inhibition is relieved when PdeR binds and degrades c-di-GMP generated by [...]
   
  
 0.807
ampC
Penicillin-binding protein; This protein is a serine beta-lactamase with a substrate specificity for cephalosporins; Belongs to the class-C beta-lactamase family.
   
  
 0.766
acrD
Aminoglycoside/multidrug efflux system; Participates in the efflux of aminoglycosides. Confers resistance to a variety of these substances. Belongs to the resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND) (TC 2.A.6) family.
