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:
vgrG5Conserved hypothetical protein; Part of the H2 type VI secretion system (H2-T6SS) specialized secretion system, which delivers several virulence factors in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells during infection. Allows the delivery of the phospholipase effector PldB to target cells where it exerts its toxicity. Plays also a role in VgrG4b and its effector PldA secretion. (790 aa)
tse3Hypothetical protein; Toxin secreted by the H1 type VI (H1-T6SS) secretion system into the periplasm of recipient cells. Degrades peptidoglycan via muramidase activity thereby helping itself to compete with other bacteria. To protect itself, the bacterium synthesizes immunity protein Tsi3 that specifically interacts with and inactivates cognate toxin. (408 aa)
tse2Hypothetical protein; Toxin secreted by the H1 type VI (H1-T6SS) secretion system into the cytoplasm of recipient cells. Acts likely as a NAD-dependent cytotoxin towards both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. (158 aa)
vgrG2bConserved hypothetical protein; Part of the H2 type VI secretion system (H2-T6SS) specialized secretion system, which delivers several virulence factors in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells during infection. Forms the spike at the tip of the elongating tube probably formed by haemolysin co-regulated protein 2b/Hcp2b (Probable). Allows the delivery of the Tle3 antibacterial toxin to target cells where it exerts its toxicity. Additionally, acts directly as an effector and promotes internalization by interacting with the host gamma-tubulin ring complex. Elicits toxicity also in the ba [...] (1019 aa)
vgrG1VgrG1; Part of the H1 type VI secretion system (H1-T6SS) specialized secretion system, which delivers several virulence factors in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells during infection. Forms the spike at the tip of the elongating tube formed by haemolysin co-regulated protein 1/Hcp1. Allows the delivery of the Tse6 toxin to target cells where it exerts its toxicity. (643 aa)
