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

flxAQin prophage; uncharacterized protein. (110 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ynjH
DUF1496 family protein.

ydfR
Qin prophage; uncharacterized protein.
      
 0.787
ycgR
Flagellar velocity braking protein, c-di-GMP-regulated; Acts as a flagellar brake, regulating swimming and swarming in a bis-(3'-5') cyclic diguanylic acid (c-di-GMP)-dependent manner. When bound to c-di-GMP it binds to elements of the flagellar motor (MotA and/or FliG and FliM , binding to FliM also occurs in the absence of c-di-GMP), causing the motor to slow down. Thus, increasing levels of c-di-GMP lead to decreased motility. Probably binds 1 c-di-GMP dimer per subunit.
   
  
 0.769
fliS
Flagellar biosynthesis; repressor of class 3a and 3b operons (RflA activity); Protein involved in flagellum assembly and taxis.
   
    0.757
flgM
Anti-sigma factor for FliA (sigma 28); Responsible for the coupling of flagellin expression to flagellar assembly by preventing expression of the flagellin genes when a component of the middle class of proteins is defective. It negatively regulates flagellar genes by inhibiting the activity of FliA by directly binding to FliA; Belongs to the FlgM family.
   
  
 0.745
flgL
Flagellar biosynthesis; hook-filament junction protein; Protein involved in flagellum assembly, protein folding and taxis.
   
    0.743
fliD
Flagellar filament capping protein; Required for the morphogenesis and for the elongation of the flagellar filament by facilitating polymerization of the flagellin monomers at the tip of growing filament. Forms a capping structure, which prevents flagellin subunits (transported through the central channel of the flagellum) from leaking out without polymerization at the distal end; Belongs to the FliD family.
   
    0.739
flgN
Export chaperone for FlgK and FlgL; Required for the efficient initiation of filament assembly.
   
  
 0.714
tar
Methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein II; Receptor for the attractant L-aspartate and related amino and dicarboxylic acids. Tar also mediates taxis to the attractant maltose via an interaction with the periplasmic maltose binding protein. Tar mediates taxis away from the repellents cobalt and nickel.
   
    0.704
fliC
Flagellar filament structural protein (flagellin); Flagellin is the subunit protein which polymerizes to form the filaments of bacterial flagella.
