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
Your Input:
patSHeterocyst-inhibiting signaling peptide; Inhibits heterocyst differentiation. Seems to control heterocyst pattern formation through intercellular signaling mechanisms. In Anabaena filaments every 10th vegetative cell terminally differentiates into a heterocyst specialized for nitrogen fixation. Seems to inhibit the formation of adjacent heterocysts. Inhibits the DNA-binding of HetR. (17 aa)
hetNKetoacyl reductase; May be involved in repressing heterocyst differentiation and may be essential for preventing all vegetative cells from differentiating. (287 aa)
hetRHeterocyst differentiation protein; Controls heterocyst differentiation. Has both a protease and a DNA-binding activity. Binds the promoter regions of hetR, hepA and patS. (299 aa)
fraCFilament integrity protein; Involved in filament integrity. Required for the integrity of cell junctions in general but is apparently not directly involved in normal differentiation and nitrogen fixation. (179 aa)
ntcANitrogen-responsive regulatory protein; Required for full expression of proteins subject to ammonium repression. Transcriptional activator of genes subject to nitrogen control. (223 aa)
