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:
epsEBifunctional flagellar clutch and glycosyltransferase; May be involved in the production of the exopolysaccharide (EPS) component of the extracellular matrix during biofilm formation. EPS is responsible for the adhesion of chains of cells into bundles. Required for biofilm maintenance; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 2 family. (278 aa)
motBMotility protein B; MotA and MotB comprise the stator element of the flagellar motor complex. Required for the rotation of the flagellar motor. Might be a linker that fastens the torque-generating machinery to the cell wall (By similarity). (261 aa)
fliGFlagellar motor switching and energizing component; One of the proteins that forms a switch complex that is proposed to be located at the base of the basal body. This complex interacts with chemotaxis proteins (such as CheY) in addition to contacting components of the motor that determine the direction of flagellar rotation; Belongs to the FliG family. (338 aa)
fliLFlagellar basal-body associated protein; Controls the rotational direction of flagella during chemotaxis; Belongs to the FliL family. (140 aa)
fliMFlagellar motor switching and energizing component; One of the proteins that forms a switch complex that is proposed to be located at the base of the basal body. This complex interacts with chemotaxis proteins (such as CheY) in addition to contacting components of the motor that determine the direction of flagellar rotation; Belongs to the FliM family. (332 aa)
cheYRegulator of chemotaxis and motility; Involved in the transmission of sensory signals from the chemoreceptors to the flagellar motors. Phosphorylated CheY interacts with the flagella switch components FliM and FliY, which causes counterclockwise rotation of the flagella, resulting in smooth swimming. (120 aa)
cheRMethyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins (MCPs) methyltransferase; Methylation of the membrane-bound methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins (MCP) to form gamma-glutamyl methyl ester residues in MCP. CheR is responsible for the chemotactic adaptation to repellents. (256 aa)
ypfAPutative cyclic diGMP binding protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative regulator. (217 aa)
