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

fhlAFormate hydrogenlyase transcriptional activator; Required for induction of expression of the formate dehydrogenase H and hydrogenase-3 structural genes. Also activates expression of hyf operon (encodes the silent hydrogenase-4 gene cluster). (692 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fdhF
Formate dehydrogenase-H, selenopolypeptide subunit; Decomposes formic acid to hydrogen and carbon dioxide under anaerobic conditions in the absence of exogenous electron acceptors.
 
  
 0.945
hycE
Large subunit of hydrogenase 3 (part of FHL complex); Protein involved in fermentation and anaerobic respiration; Belongs to the complex I 49 kDa subunit family.
 
  
 0.920
hycB
Hydrogenase 3, Fe-S subunit; Probable electron transfer protein for hydrogenase 3.
 
  
 0.883
hycA
Regulator of the transcriptional regulator FhlA; Regulatory protein for the formate hydrogenlyase system. Could act by directly interacting with FhlA or by preventing the binding of FhlA to the upstream activatory sequence. Also down-regulates expression of the hyf operon.
     
 0.883
hycI
Protease involved in processing C-terminal end of HycE; Protease involved in the C-terminal processing of HycE, the large subunit of hydrogenase 3; Belongs to the peptidase A31 family.
 
   
 0.862
rpoN
RNA polymerase, sigma 54 (sigma N) factor; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is responsible for the expression of enzymes involved in arginine catabolism. The open complex (sigma-54 and core RNA polymerase) serves as the receptor for the receipt of the melting signal from the remotely bound activator protein GlnG(NtrC).
 
   
 0.858
hypE
Carbamoyl dehydratase, hydrogenases 1,2,3 maturation protein; Involved in the maturation of [NiFe] hydrogenases. Along with HypF, it catalyzes the synthesis of the CN ligands of the active site iron of [NiFe]-hydrogenases. HypE catalyzes the ATP-dependent dehydration of the carboxamido group attached to its C-terminal cysteine to a cyano group. The cyano group is then transferred from HypE to the HypC-HypD complex or the HybG-HypD complex.
  
  
 0.856
hyaB
Hydrogenase 1, large subunit; This is one of three E.coli hydrogenases synthesized in response to different physiological conditions. HYD1 is believed to have a role in hydrogen cycling during fermentative growth; Belongs to the [NiFe]/[NiFeSe] hydrogenase large subunit family.
   
  
 0.815
hybC
Hydrogenase 2, large subunit; This is one of three E.coli hydrogenases synthesized in response to different physiological conditions. HYD2 is involved in hydrogen uptake; Belongs to the [NiFe]/[NiFeSe] hydrogenase large subunit family.
   
  
 0.813
focA
Formate channel; Involved in the bidirectional transport of formate; Belongs to the FNT transporter (TC 2.A.44) family.
      
 0.804
