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:
degQPleiotropic regulator; Stimulates the phosphotransfer from phospho-DegS to DegU. Affects protease and levansucrose production. (46 aa)
pckAPhosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase; Involved in the gluconeogenesis. Catalyzes the conversion of oxaloacetate (OAA) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) through direct phosphoryl transfer between the nucleoside triphosphate and OAA. (527 aa)
dhbFSiderophore 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate-glycine-threonine trimeric ester bacillibactin synthetase; Specifically adenylates threonine and glycine, and loads them onto their corresponding peptidyl carrier domains. (2378 aa)
rocGGlutamate dehydrogenase; Devoted to catabolic function of glutamate (and other amino acids of the glutamate family) utilization as sole nitrogen source. It is not involved in anabolic function of glutamate biosynthesis since B.subtilis possesses only one route of glutamate biosynthesis from ammonia, catalyzed by glutamate synthase. RocG is unable to utilize glutamate or glutamine as sole carbon source and to synthesize glutamate, but it is involved in the utilization of arginine, and proline as carbon or nitrogen source. The catabolic RocG is essential for controlling gltAB expression [...] (424 aa)
fadRTranscriptional regulator of fatty acids degradation (TetR/AcrR family); Transcriptional regulator in fatty acid degradation. Represses transcription of genes required for fatty acid transport and beta-oxidation, including acdA, fadA, fadB, fadE, fadF, fadG, fadH, fadM, fadN, lcfA and lcfB. Binding of FadR to DNA is specifically inhibited by long chain fatty acyl-CoA compounds of 14-20 carbon atoms in length. (194 aa)
lysCAspartokinase II alpha subunit (aa 1->408) and beta subunit (aa 246->408); Catalyzes the phosphorylation of the beta-carboxyl group of aspartic acid with ATP to yield 4-phospho-L-aspartate, which is involved in the branched biosynthetic pathway leading to the biosynthesis of amino acids threonine, isoleucine and methionine. (408 aa)
gudBCryptic glutamate dehydrogenase; GudB seems to be intrinsically inactive, however spontaneous mutations removing a 9-bp direct repeat within the wild-type gudB sequence activated the GudB protein and allowed more-efficient utilization of amino acids of the glutamate family. This insertion presumably causes severe destabilization of the fold of the protein, leading to an inactive enzyme that is very quickly degraded. The cryptic GudB serves as a buffer that may compensate for mutations in the rocG gene and that can also be decryptified for the utilization of glutamate as a single carbon [...] (427 aa)
nprEExtracellular neutral metalloprotease; Extracellular zinc metalloprotease; Belongs to the peptidase M4 family. (521 aa)
wprACell wall-associated protease; CWBP52 is a serine-type protease that could be involved in proteoglycan peptide bridges; Belongs to the peptidase S8 family. (894 aa)
comKCompetence transcription factor (CTF); A master regulator required for the expression of late competence genes including comC, comE, comG and the bdbDC operon. Receives signals from SrfA, and possibly other regulatory COM genes, and transduces these signals to the late COM genes. Represses transcription of rok. May repress expression of a few genes. (192 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)
amyEAlpha-amylase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 13 family. (659 aa)
abrBTranscriptional regulator for transition state genes; Ambiactive repressor and activator of the transcription of genes expressed during the transition state between vegetative growth and the onset of stationary phase and sporulation. It controls the expression of genes spovG and tycA. AbrB binds to the tycA promoter region at two A- and T-rich sites, it may be the sole repressor of tycA transcription; To B.subtilis Abh and SpoVT. (96 aa)
