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:
cspBMajor cold-shock protein, RNA helicase co-factor, RNA co-chaperone; Binds to the pentamer sequences ATTGG and CCAAT with highest affinity in single-stranded DNA, and also to other sequences. Has greater affinity for ATTGG than CCAAT. Can act as transcriptional activator of cold shock genes by recognizing putative ATTGG-box elements present in promoter regions of genes induced under cold shock conditions. (67 aa)
aprESerine alkaline protease (subtilisin E); Subtilisin is an extracellular alkaline serine protease, it catalyzes the hydrolysis of proteins and peptide amides; Belongs to the peptidase S8 family. (381 aa)
sleBSpore cortex-lytic enzyme; Could be a lytic transglycosylase. Required for spore cortex hydrolysis during germination. Interacts strongly but noncovalently with spore components. (305 aa)
spoVAFStage V sporulation protein AF; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process. (493 aa)
gerAAComponent of the GerA germination receptor; Forms a complex at the inner spore membrane which acts as a receptor for L-alanine, thus is involved in the stimulation of germination in response to alanine. Can stimulate germination in the absence of GerD and GerK gene products (fructose and glucose receptors, respectively), but the response is improved in their presence. (482 aa)
cwlJCell wall hydrolase; Probable spore cortex-lytic enzyme involved in the depolymerization of cortex peptidoglycan during germination. (142 aa)
gerBAComponent of germinant receptor B; Involved in the response to the germinative mixture of L- asparagine, glucose, fructose and potassium ions (AGFK). Cannot stimulate germination in the absence of gerD and gerK gene products (fructose and glucose receptors respectively). (483 aa)
gerKASpore germination receptor subunit; Involved in the germination response to the combination of glucose, fructose, L-asparagine, and KCl; Belongs to the GerABKA family. (544 aa)
