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

nrfCFormate-dependent nitrite reductase, 4Fe4S subunit; Probably involved in the transfer of electrons from the quinone pool to the type-c cytochromes. (223 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
nrfD
Formate-dependent nitrite reductase, membrane subunit; Probably involved in the transfer of electrons from the quinone pool to the type-c cytochromes; Belongs to the NrfD family.
 
 
 0.999
nrfB
Nitrite reductase, formate-dependent, penta-heme cytochrome c; Plays a role in nitrite reduction.
 
  
 0.998
nrfA
Nitrite reductase, formate-dependent, cytochrome; Catalyzes the reduction of nitrite to ammonia, consuming six electrons in the process. Has very low activity toward hydroxylamine. Has even lower activity toward sulfite. Sulfite reductase activity is maximal at neutral pH (By similarity).
 
 
 0.994
nrfE
Heme lyase (NrfEFG) for insertion of heme into c552, subunit NrfE; May be required for the biogenesis of c-type cytochromes. Possible subunit of a heme lyase.
  
  
 0.950
nrfG
Heme lyase (NrfEFG) for insertion of heme into c552, subunit NrfG; Required for formate-dependent nitrite reduction. Not required for the biosynthesis of any of the c-type cytochromes nor for the secretion of the periplasmic cytochromes.
 
  
 0.912
nrfF
Heme lyase (NrfEFG) for insertion of heme into c552, subunit NrfF; Not required for the biosynthesis of any of the c-type cytochromes. Possible subunit of a heme lyase.
  
  
 0.843
napG
Ferredoxin-type protein; Required for electron transfer from ubiquinol, via NapC, to the periplasmic nitrate reductase NapAB complex.
  
  
 0.780
fdnG
Formate dehydrogenase-N, alpha subunit, nitrate-inducible; Formate dehydrogenase allows E.coli to use formate as major electron donor during anaerobic respiration, when nitrate is used as electron acceptor. The alpha subunit FdnG contains the formate oxidation site. Electrons are transferred from formate to menaquinone in the gamma subunit (FdnI), through the 4Fe-4S clusters in the beta subunit (FdnH). Formate dehydrogenase-N is part of a system that generates proton motive force, together with the dissimilatory nitrate reductase (Nar).
 
 0.753
fdnI
Formate dehydrogenase-N, cytochrome B556 (gamma) subunit, nitrate-inducible; Formate dehydrogenase allows E.coli to use formate as major electron donor during anaerobic respiration, when nitrate is used as electron acceptor. Subunit gamma is the cytochrome b556 component of the formate dehydrogenase-N, and also contains a menaquinone reduction site that receives electrons from the beta subunit (FdnH), through its hemes. Formate dehydrogenase-N is part of a system that generates proton motive force, together with the dissimilatory nitrate reductase (Nar).
 
 
 0.747
fdoG
Formate dehydrogenase-O, large subunit; Allows to use formate as major electron donor during aerobic respiration. Subunit alpha possibly forms the active site; Belongs to the prokaryotic molybdopterin-containing oxidoreductase family.
 
 0.727
