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
prcCarboxy-terminal protease for penicillin-binding protein 3; Involved in the cleavage of a C-terminal peptide of 11 residues from the precursor form of penicillin-binding protein 3 (PBP3). May be involved in protection of the bacterium from thermal and osmotic stresses. (682 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
nlpI
Lipoprotein involved in osmotic sensitivity and filamentation; May be involved in cell division. May play a role in bacterial septation or regulation of cell wall degradation during cell division. Negatively controls the production of extracellular DNA (eDNA).
  
 
 
 0.992
proQ
RNA chaperone, putative ProP translation regulator; RNA chaperone with significant RNA binding, RNA strand exchange and RNA duplexing activities. May regulate ProP activity through an RNA-based, post-transcriptional mechanism.
 
  
 0.918
mepS
Murein DD-endopeptidase MepS/Murein LD-carboxypeptidase; A murein DD-endopeptidase with specificity for D-Ala-meso- diaminopimelic acid (mDAP) cross-links. Its role is probably to cleave D-Ala-mDAP cross-links to allow insertion of new glycans and thus cell wall expansion. Functionally redundant with MepM and MepH. Also has weak LD-carboxypeptidase activity on L-mDAP-D-Ala peptide bonds. Partially suppresses a prc disruption mutant. Belongs to the peptidase C40 family.
   
  
 0.895
degP
Serine endoprotease (protease Do), membrane-associated; DegP acts as a chaperone at low temperatures but switches to a peptidase (heat shock protein) at higher temperatures. Degrades transiently denatured and unfolded or misfolded proteins which accumulate in the periplasm following heat shock or other stress conditions. DegP is efficient with Val-Xaa and Ile-Xaa peptide bonds, suggesting a preference for beta-branched side chain amino acids. Only unfolded proteins devoid of disulfide bonds appear capable of being cleaved, thereby preventing non-specific proteolysis of folded proteins. [...]

mepM
Murein DD-endopeptidase, space-maker hydrolase, septation protein; A murein DD-endopeptidase with specificity for D-Ala-meso- diaminopimelic acid (mDAP) cross-links. Its role is probably to cleave D-Ala-mDAP cross-links to allow insertion of new glycans and thus cell wall expansion. Functionally redundant with MepM and MepH. Partially suppresses an mepS disruption mutant.

ftsI
Transpeptidase involved in septal peptidoglycan synthesis; Essential cell division protein that catalyzes cross-linking of the peptidoglycan cell wall at the division septum. Required for localization of FtsN. Belongs to the transpeptidase family. FtsI subfamily.
  
 
 0.671
rseP
Inner membrane zinc RIP metalloprotease; A site-2 regulated intramembrane protease (S2P) that cleaves the peptide bond between 'Ala-108' and 'Cys-109' in the transmembrane region of RseA. Part of a regulated intramembrane proteolysis (RIP) cascade. Acts on DegS-cleaved RseA to release the cytoplasmic domain of RseA, residue 'Val-148' of RseA may be required for this. This provides the cell with sigma-E (RpoE) activity through the proteolysis of RseA. Can also cleave sequences in transmembrane regions of other proteins (such as LacY) as well as liberated signal peptides of beta-lactamas [...]

msrC
Free methionine-(R)-sulfoxide reductase; Catalyzes the reversible oxidation-reduction of the R- enantiomer of free methionine sulfoxide to methionine. Specific for free L-methionine-(R)-S-oxide.
  
  
 0.638
hisS
Histidine tRNA synthetase; Protein involved in tRNA aminoacylation for protein translation.
   
    0.635
pfo
Pyruvate-flavodoxin oxidoreductase; Oxidoreductase required for the transfer of electrons from pyruvate to flavodoxin.
