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

yfaPDUF2135 family protein, putative host defense protein. (258 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yfaQ
Tandem DUF2300 domain protein, putative host defense protein.
  
  
 0.987
yfaA
DUF2138 family protein, putative host defense protein.
  
  
 0.956
yfaT
Uncharacterized protein YfaT; Pseudogene, bacterial alpha2-macroglobulin YfaS variant family; putative membrane protein; To P.aeruginosa PA4490 and T.maritima TM0986.
  
  
 0.882
yfhM
Bacterial alpha2-macroglobulin colonization factor ECAM; Protects the bacterial cell from host peptidases. Acts by a 'trapping' mechanism. Cleavage of the bait-region domain by host peptidases leads to a global conformational change, which results in entrapment of the host peptidase and activation of the thioester bond that covalently binds the attacking host peptidase. Trapped peptidases are still active except against very large substrates. May protect the entire periplam, including the lipoproteins anchored to the periplasmic side of the outer membrane, against intruding endopeptidases.
  
  
 0.679
yebZ
Inner membrane protein; Putative resistance protein; Protein involved in response to drug.
      
 0.642
yjbF
Extracellular polysaccharide production lipoprotein.
      
 0.622
ycbF
Putative periplasmic pilin chaperone; Part of the elfADCG-ycbUVF fimbrial operon, which promotes adhesion of bacteria to different abiotic surfaces. Could be required for the biogenesis of fimbriae; Belongs to the periplasmic pilus chaperone family.
  
     0.545
yebE
DUF533 family inner membrane protein.
      
 0.504
rtcA
RNA 3'-terminal phosphate cyclase; Catalyzes the conversion of 3'-phosphate to a 2',3'-cyclic phosphodiester at the end of RNA. The mechanism of action of the enzyme occurs in 3 steps: (A) adenylation of the enzyme by ATP; (B) transfer of adenylate to an RNA-N3'P to produce RNA-N3'PP5'A; (C) and attack of the adjacent 2'-hydroxyl on the 3'-phosphorus in the diester linkage to produce the cyclic end product. The biological role of this enzyme is unknown but it is likely to function in some aspects of cellular RNA processing; Belongs to the RNA 3'-terminal cyclase family. Type 1 subfamily.
  
     0.493
ynbD
Putative phosphatase inner membrane protein; Putative enzymes; Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family.
  
    0.487
