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:
dnaNDNA polymerase III (beta subunit); Confers DNA tethering and processivity to DNA polymerases and other proteins. Acts as a clamp, forming a ring around DNA (a reaction catalyzed by the clamp-loading complex) which diffuses in an ATP- independent manner freely and bidirectionally along dsDNA. Initially characterized for its ability to contact the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase III (Pol III), a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria; Pol III exhibits 3'-5' exonuclease proofreading activity. The beta chain is required for initiation o [...] (378 aa)
amyEAlpha-amylase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 13 family. (659 aa)
ftsWCell-division protein; Peptidoglycan polymerase that is essential for cell division. (403 aa)
ftsLCell-division protein; Essential cell division protein that may play a structural role. Probably involved in the regulation of the timing of cell division. Also required for sporulation. (117 aa)
pbpBPenicillin-binding protein 2B; Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) function in the late steps of murein biosynthesis. PBP-2B is required for vegetative cell division and sporulation septation. Beta-lactamase inactivates the PBPs by acylating an essential serine residue in the active site of these proteins, thereby interrupting normal cell wall synthesis; Belongs to the transpeptidase family. (716 aa)
ftsACell-division protein essential fo Z-ring assembly; Cell division protein that is required for the assembly of the Z ring. May serve as a membrane anchor for the Z ring (By similarity). Binds and hydrolyzes ATP. Also involved in sporulation (Probable). Belongs to the FtsA/MreB family. (440 aa)
ftsZCell-division initiation protein; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity. (382 aa)
recAMultifunctional SOS repair factor; Multifunctional protein involved in homologous recombination, DNA repair and competence. Can catalyze the hydrolysis of (d)ATP in the presence of single-stranded DNA; prefers dATP at least in vitro, catalyzes the dATP-dependent uptake of single- stranded DNA by duplex DNA, and the dATP-dependent hybridization of homologous single-stranded DNAs (strand exchange). RecA-ATP cannot catalyze homologous DNA strand exchange; SsbA and DprA activate strand exchange by RecA-ATP. It interacts with LexA causing its activation and leading to its autocatalytic clea [...] (348 aa)
lexATranscriptional repressor of the SOS regulon; Represses dinA, dinB, dinC, recA genes and itself by binding to the 14 bp palindromic sequence 5'-CGAACNNNNGTTCG-3'; some genes have a tandem consensus sequence and their binding is cooperative. In the presence of single-stranded DNA, RecA interacts with LexA causing an autocatalytic cleavage which disrupts the DNA-binding part of LexA, leading to derepression of the SOS regulon and eventually DNA repair; autocleavage is maximal at pH 11 in the absence of RecA and ssDNA. (205 aa)
yneACell division inhibitor; Inhibits cell division during the SOS response. Affects a later stage of the cell division protein assembly, after the assembly of the Z ring, by probably suppressing recruitment of FtsL and/or DivIC to the division machinery (By similarity). (105 aa)
ctpACarboxy-terminal processing protease; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; enzyme. (466 aa)
ponAPeptidoglycan glycosyltransferase (penicillin-binding proteins 1A and 1B); Cell wall formation. Synthesis of cross-linked peptidoglycan from the lipid intermediates. The enzyme has a penicillin-insensitive transglycosylase N-terminal domain (formation of linear glycan strands) and a penicillin-sensitive transpeptidase C-terminal domain (cross- linking of the peptide subunits). (914 aa)
safAMorphogenetic protein associated with SpoVID; Probably involved in the assembly of some coat protein components implicated in both lysozyme resistance and germination. Could be required for the assembly of CotG. Associates with SpoIVD during the early stage of coat assembly. (387 aa)
