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
etpO-antigen capsule forming protein-tyrosine-phosphatase; Dephosphorylates etk; Belongs to the low molecular weight phosphotyrosine protein phosphatase family. (148 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
etk
Tyrosine-protein kinase, role in O-antigen capsule formation; Protein involved in protein modification process; Belongs to the etk/wzc family.
 
  
 0.995
gfcE
Putative O-antigen capsule outer membrane auxillary protein export channel; May be involved in polysaccharide transport; Belongs to the BexD/CtrA/VexA family.
  
 0.994
wzc
Colanic acid production tyrosine-protein kinase; Required for the extracellular polysaccharide colanic acid synthesis. The autophosphorylated form is inactive. Probably involved in the export of colanic acid from the cell to medium. Phosphorylates udg.
 
  
 0.964
gfcD
Putative O-antigen capsule production periplasmic protein.
 
  
 0.954
gfcC
Putative O-antigen capsule production periplasmic protein; To E.coli YjbG.
  
  
 0.937
gfcB
O-antigen capsule production lipoprotein; Putative regulator.
  
  
 0.929
wzb
Colanic acid production protein-tyrosine-phosphatase; Dephosphorylates Wzc. Required for the extracellular polysaccharide colanic acid synthesis, probably involved in the export of colanic acid from the cell to medium. Involved in protection of cells against contact- dependent growth inhibition (CDI), probably due to the loss of a physical impediment to cell-cell contact; Belongs to the low molecular weight phosphotyrosine protein phosphatase family.
  
  
0.907
gfcA
O-antigen capsule production threonine-rich inner membrane protein.
     
 0.888
wza
Colanic acid export protein; Probably involved in the export of the extracellular polysaccharide colanic acid from the cell to medium.
  
 0.876
yjbH
DUF940 family extracellular polysaccharide protein.
 
   
 0.571
