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

arfAAlternate ribosome-rescue factor A; Rescues ribosomes stalled at the 3' end of non-stop mRNAs. This activity is crucial when the stalled ribosome cannot be rescued by the SsrA(tmRNA)-SmpB quality control system. Binds the 30S subunit, contacting 16S rRNA with the N-terminus near the decoding center and its C-terminus in the mRNA entry channel; contacts change in the presence of release factor 2 (RF2, also named PrfB). Requires RF2/PrfB to hydrolyze stalled peptidyl-tRNA on the ribosome; recruits and probably helps position RF2/PrfB correctly in the ribosomal A site so RF2's GGQ motif c [...] (72 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpsT
30S ribosomal subunit protein S20; Binds directly to 16S ribosomal RNA.
    
   0.999
rpsB
30S ribosomal subunit protein S2; Required for ribosomal protein S1 to bind to the 30S subunit.
    
   0.999
rpmF
50S ribosomal subunit protein L32; Protein involved in structural constituent of ribosome and translation.
    
 
 0.999
rplT
50S ribosomal subunit protein L20; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds close to the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly.
    
   0.999
rpmI
50S ribosomal subunit protein A; Protein involved in structural constituent of ribosome and translation; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL35 family.
    
   0.999
rplY
50S ribosomal subunit protein L25; This is one of the proteins that binds to the 5S RNA in the ribosome where it forms part of the central protuberance. Binds to the 5S rRNA independently of L5 and L18. Not required for binding of the 5S rRNA/L5/L18 subcomplex to 23S rRNA.
    
   0.999
rplS
50S ribosomal subunit protein L19; This protein is located at the 30S-50S ribosomal subunit interface. In the 70S ribosome it has been modeled to make two contacts with the 16S rRNA of the 30S subunit forming part of bridges B6 and B8. In the 3.5 A resolved structures L14 and L19 interact and together make contact with the 16S rRNA. The protein conformation is quite different between the 50S and 70S structures, which may be necessary for translocation.
    
   0.999
rpsP
30S ribosomal subunit protein S16; In addition to being a ribosomal protein, S16 also has a cation-dependent endonuclease activity.
    
   0.999
prfB
Peptide chain release factor RF-2; Peptide chain release factor 2 directs the termination of translation in response to the peptide chain termination codons UGA and UAA. Acts as a peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase. In the presence of truncated mRNA in the 70S ribosome, ArfA and RF2 interact such that the GGQ peptide hydrolysis motif of RF2 rises into the peptidyl-transferase center and releases the ribosome. Recruited by ArfA to rescue stalled ribosomes in the absence of a normal stop codon.
    
 
 0.999
rpsU
30S ribosomal subunit protein S21; Protein involved in structural constituent of ribosome and translation; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bS21 family.
