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

pbpGD-alanyl-D-alanine endopeptidase; Cell wall formation. May play a specialized role in remodeling the cell wall. Specifically hydrolyzes the DD- diaminopimelate-alanine bonds in high-molecular-mass murein sacculi; Belongs to the peptidase S11 family. (310 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dacB
D-alanyl-D-alanine carboxypeptidase; Not involved in transpeptidation but exclusively catalyzes a DD-carboxypeptidase and DD-endopeptidase reaction. Belongs to the peptidase S13 family.
      
 0.913
mrcA
Penicillin-binding protein 1a, murein transglycosylase and transpeptidase; Cell wall formation. Synthesis of cross-linked peptidoglycan from the lipid intermediates. The enzyme has a penicillin-insensitive transglycosylase N-terminal domain (formation of linear glycan strands) and a penicillin-sensitive transpeptidase C-terminal domain (cross- linking of the peptide subunits); In the N-terminal section; belongs to the glycosyltransferase 51 family.
      
 0.900
slt
Lytic murein transglycosylase, soluble; Murein-degrading enzyme. Catalyzes the cleavage of the glycosidic bonds between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine residues in peptidoglycan. May play a role in recycling of muropeptides during cell elongation and/or cell division.
  
   
 0.878
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.
 
  
 0.858
mepH
Murein DD-endopeptidase, space-maker hydrolase; 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.
 
  
 0.854
mrdA
Penicillin-binding protein 2, transpeptidase involved in peptidoglycan synthesis; Catalyzes cross-linking of the peptidoglycan cell wall. Responsible for the determination of the rod shape of the cell. Is probably required for lateral peptidoglycan synthesis and maintenance of the correct diameter during lateral and centripetal growth. Belongs to the transpeptidase family. MrdA subfamily.
  
  
 0.826
mrcB
Fused glycosyl transferase and transpeptidase; Cell wall formation. Synthesis of cross-linked peptidoglycan from the lipid intermediates. The enzyme has a penicillin-insensitive transglycosylase N-terminal domain (formation of linear glycan strands) and a penicillin-sensitive transpeptidase C-terminal domain (cross- linking of the peptide subunits); In the N-terminal section; belongs to the glycosyltransferase 51 family.
   
  
 0.821
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.
  
  
 0.805
ampH
D-alanyl-D-alanine- carboxypeptidase/endopeptidase; Hydrolyzes the cross-linked dimers tetrapentapeptide (D45) and tetratetrapeptide (D44). Removes the terminal D-alanine from muropeptides and disaccharide pentapeptide M5 with a C-terminal D-Ala- D-Ala dipeptide. Associated with recycling and remodeling of peptidoglycan (PG). Also displays a low beta-lactamase activity. Belongs to the beta-lactamase family.
   
  
 0.795
yfeW
Penicillin binding protein PBP4B; Penicillin-binding protein. Has low DD-carboxypeptidase activity; Belongs to the peptidase S12 family. YfeW subfamily.
