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

yhbOStress-resistance protein; Protein and nucleotide deglycase that catalyzes the deglycation of the Maillard adducts formed between amino groups of proteins or nucleotides and reactive carbonyl groups of glyoxals. Thus, functions as a protein deglycase that repairs methylglyoxal- and glyoxal-glycated proteins, and releases repaired proteins and lactate or glycolate, respectively. Deglycates cysteine, arginine and lysine residues in proteins, and thus reactivates these proteins by reversing glycation by glyoxals. Is able to repair glycated serum albumin, collagen, glyceraldehyde-3-phospha [...] (172 aa)

Oxidative-stress-resistance chaperone; Protein and nucleotide deglycase that catalyzes the deglycation of the Maillard adducts formed between amino groups of proteins or nucleotides and reactive carbonyl groups of glyoxals. Thus, functions as a protein deglycase that repairs methylglyoxal- and glyoxal-glycated proteins, and releases repaired proteins and lactate or glycolate, respectively. Deglycates cysteine, arginine and lysine residues in proteins, and thus reactivates these proteins by reversing glycation by glyoxals.

Protein/nucleic acid deglycase 1; Protein and nucleotide deglycase that catalyzes the deglycation of the Maillard adducts formed between amino groups of proteins or nucleotides and reactive carbonyl groups of glyoxals. Thus, functions as a protein deglycase that repairs methylglyoxal- and glyoxal-glycated proteins, and releases repaired proteins and lactate or glycolate, respectively. Deglycates cysteine, arginine and lysine residues in proteins, and thus reactivates these proteins by reversing glycation by glyoxals. Is able to repair glycated serum albumin, aspartate aminotransferase, [...]

yghA
Putative oxidoreductase; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
  
    0.878
elbB
Isoprenoid biosynthesis protein with amidotransferase-like domain; Displays glyoxalase activity, catalyzing the conversion of glyoxal to glycolate. However, this apparent glyoxalase activity may reflect a protein deglycase activity, which could be the primary function of this protein like other DJ-1 superfamily members such as PARK7, YajL, YhbO and HchA (Probable). Is not able to use methylglyoxal as substrate. Belongs to the peptidase C56 family.

katE
Catalase HPII, heme d-containing; Decomposes hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen; serves to protect cells from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide.
 
 
 0.804
osmY
Salt-inducible putative ABC transporter periplasmic binding protein; Hyperosmotically inducible periplasmic protein; Protein involved in response to osmotic stress.
   
  
 0.753
ybgS
Putative homeobox protein.
   
    0.732
tpx
Lipid hydroperoxide peroxidase; Thiol-specific peroxidase that catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and alcohols, respectively. Plays a role in cell protection against oxidative stress by detoxifying peroxides. Has a preference for alkyl hydroperoxides and acts as lipid peroxidase to inhibit bacterial membrane oxidation. Acts as principal antioxidant during anaerobic growth.

yjbJ
Stress-induced protein, UPF0337 family; Belongs to the UPF0337 (CsbD) family.
  
  
 0.660
ygaU
Uncharacterized protein; Highly specific potassium binding protein that is required for normal growth in the presence of high levels of external K(+). May act as a sensor of cytoplasmic K(+) concentration. Binds a single K(+) ion, which induces a large conformational change. Can also bind the larger alkali metal ions Rb(+) and Cs(+), and NH(4)(+). May be involved in the regulation of peptidoglycan cross-linking.
