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

ycaIComEC family inner membrane protein. (754 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lpxK
Lipid A 4'kinase; Transfers the gamma-phosphate of ATP to the 4'-position of a tetraacyldisaccharide 1-phosphate intermediate (termed DS-1-P) to form tetraacyldisaccharide 1,4'-bis-phosphate (lipid IVA).
     
 0.853
smf
DNA recombination-mediator A family protein; Partially complements natural chromosomal DNA transformation defect of an H.influenzae dprA disruption mutant. May help load RecA onto ssDNA (By similarity). Belongs to the DprA/Smf family.
 
  
 0.817
hofQ
DNA catabolic putative fimbrial transporter; Required for the use of extracellular DNA as a nutrient. Could be the porin responsible for transport of DNA across the outer membrane.
      
 0.807
gntX
DNA catabolic protein; Required for the use of extracellular DNA as a nutrient. Has been suggested to be involved in gluconate metabolism ; Belongs to the ComF/GntX family.
 
  
 0.806
ydcV
Putative ABC transporter permease; Involved in natural transformation. Probably part of the ABC transporter complex YdcSTUV. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane. During natural transformation, may serve as the channel for dsDNA uptake (Probable).
  
  
 0.779
ycaQ
DUF1006 family protein with C-terminal wHTH domain.
  
  
 0.754
msbA
Lipid ABC transporter permease/ATPase; Involved in lipid A export and possibly also in glycerophospholipid export and for biogenesis of the outer membrane. Transmembrane domains (TMD) form a pore in the inner membrane and the ATP-binding domain (NBD) is responsible for energy generation. Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Lipid exporter (TC 3.A.1.106) family.
     
 0.725
gspO
Bifunctional prepilin leader peptidase/ methylase; Cleaves type-4 fimbrial leader sequence and methylates the N- terminal (generally Phe) residue.
 
  
 0.685
hofC
Assembly protein in type IV pilin biogenesis, transmembrane protein; Putative integral membrane protein involved in biogenesis of fimbriae, protein transport, DNA uptake.
  
  
 0.679
ftsK
DNA translocase at septal ring sorting daughter chromsomes; Essential cell division protein that coordinates cell division and chromosome segregation. The N-terminus is involved in assembly of the cell-division machinery. The C-terminus functions as a DNA motor that moves dsDNA in an ATP-dependent manner towards the dif recombination site, which is located within the replication terminus region. Translocation stops specifically at Xer-dif sites, where FtsK interacts with the Xer recombinase, allowing activation of chromosome unlinking by recombination. FtsK orienting polar sequences (K [...]
