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

elfALaminin-binding fimbrin subunit; Part of the elfADCG-ycbUVF fimbrial operon, which promotes adhesion of bacteria to different abiotic surfaces. ElfA is the major fimbrial subunit produced by this operon. (179 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
elfD
Putative periplasmic pilin chaperone; Part of the elfADCG-ycbUVF fimbrial operon, which promotes adhesion of bacteria to different abiotic surfaces. Could be required for the biogenesis of the ElfA fimbriae; Belongs to the periplasmic pilus chaperone family.
  
 
 0.949
ycbU
Putative fimbriae protein; Part of the elfADCG-ycbUVF fimbrial operon, which promotes adhesion of bacteria to different abiotic surfaces.
     
 0.796
ecpA
ECP pilin; Part of the ecpRABCDE operon, which encodes the E.coli common pilus (ECP). ECP is found in both commensal and pathogenic strains and plays a dual role in early-stage biofilm development and host cell recognition. Major subunit of the fimbria (By similarity).
   
  
 0.790
elfG
Putative fimbrial-like adhesin protein; Part of the elfADCG-ycbUVF fimbrial operon, which promotes adhesion of bacteria to different abiotic surfaces.
  
  
 0.717
elfC
Putative outer membrane fimbrial subunit export usher protein; Part of the elfADCG-ycbUVF fimbrial operon, which promotes adhesion of bacteria to different abiotic surfaces. Could be involved in the export and assembly of the ElfA fimbrial subunits across the outer membrane.
  
 
 0.707
ybgO
Putative fimbrial protein; May be involved in a fimbrial system chaperoned by YbgP and exported by YbgQ.
     
 0.643
ybeT
Sel1 family TPR-like repeat protein.
   
  
 0.579
ybeU
DUF1266 family protein; Putative tRNA ligase; To E.coli YbeR.
   
  
 0.577
ycbF
Putative periplasmic pilin chaperone; Part of the elfADCG-ycbUVF fimbrial operon, which promotes adhesion of bacteria to different abiotic surfaces. Could be required for the biogenesis of fimbriae; Belongs to the periplasmic pilus chaperone family.
  
   0.574
yaiS
Putative PIG-L family deacetylase; Belongs to the PIGL family.
   
    0.533
