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

csgFCurli nucleation outer membrane protein; May be involved in the biogenesis of curli organelles. (138 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
csgG
Curli production assembly/transport outer membrane lipoprotein; May be involved in the biogenesis of curli organelles.
 
 0.999
csgE
Curlin secretion specificity factor; May be involved in the biogenesis of curli organelles.
  
 
 0.999
csgD
csgBAC operon transcriptional regulator; The master regulator for adhesive curli fimbriae expression; necessary for transcription of the csgBAC/ymdA operon. Plays a positive role in biofilm formation. May have the capability to respond to starvation and/or high cell density by activating csgBA transcription. Low-level constitutive expression confers an adherent curli fimbriae- expressing phenotype, up-regulates 10 genes and down-regulates 14 others.
 
  
 0.999
csgB
Curlin nucleator protein, minor subunit in curli complex; Curlin is the structural subunit of the curli fimbriae. Curli are coiled surface structures that assemble preferentially at growth temperatures below 37 degrees Celsius. Curli can bind to fibronectin. The minor subunit is the nucleation component of curlin monomers. Coexpression of cellulose and thin aggregative fimbriae (curli fimbrae or fibers) leads to a hydrophobic network with tightly packed cells embedded in a highly inert matrix that confers cohesion, elasticity and tissue-like properties to colonies. Belongs to the CsgA/ [...]

csgA
Curlin subunit, amyloid curli fibers, cryptic; Curlin is the structural subunit of the curli fimbriae. Curli are coiled surface structures that assemble preferentially at growth temperatures below 37 degrees Celsius. Curli can bind to fibronectin; Belongs to the CsgA/CsgB family.
  
 
 0.990
csgC
Curli assembly protein; Plays a role in the extracellular assembly of CsgA into thin aggregative fimbriae (Tafi) fibers. Assembly may also require CsgE. Tafi are thought to be assembled via an extracellular nucleation- precipitation (ENP) pathway, and possibly also via an intracellular non-CsgC-dependent pathway (By similarity).
   
  
 0.941
hybE
Hydrogenase 2-specific chaperone; Member of hyb operon.
  
     0.718
ycfT
Inner membrane protein.
  
   
 0.662
yfaZ
Outer membrane protein, putative porin.
      
 0.621
psiF
PsiF family protein; Induced by phosphate starvation; Protein involved in phosphorus metabolic process and response to starvation.
  
    0.601
