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:
mraZMraZ protein; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF02381; match to protein family HMM TIGR00242; Belongs to the MraZ family. (143 aa)
pbpBPenicillin binding protein transpeptidase domain protein; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF00905; match to protein family HMM PF03717; Belongs to the transpeptidase family. (648 aa)
ftsZCell division protein FtsZ; 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. (385 aa)
dnaAChromosomal replication initiator protein DnaA; Plays an important role in the initiation and regulation of chromosomal replication. Binds to the origin of replication; it binds specifically double-stranded DNA at a 9 bp consensus (dnaA box): 5'- TTATC[CA]A[CA]A-3'. DnaA binds to ATP and to acidic phospholipids (By similarity). (504 aa)
pknBSerine-threonine protein kinase; Protein kinase that regulates many aspects of mycobacterial physiology. Is a key component of a signal transduction pathway that regulates cell growth, cell shape and cell division via phosphorylation of target proteins (By similarity). Probably phosphorylates RseA. (625 aa)
whiB2Transcription factor WhiB; Acts as a transcriptional regulator. Probably redox- responsive. The apo- but not holo-form probably binds DNA (By similarity); Belongs to the WhiB family. (129 aa)
ftsECell division ATP-binding protein FtsE; Part of the ABC transporter FtsEX involved in cellular division. (229 aa)
mtrADNA-binding response regulator MtrA; Member of the two-component regulatory system MtrA/MtrB, responding to environmental signals (Probable). Controls expression of a number of genes including dnaA, ripA, fbpB and probably itself. Probably plays a role in cell division. (228 aa)
mtrBSensor histidine kinase MtrB; Member of the two-component regulatory system MtrA/MtrB. Probably functions as a membrane-associated protein kinase that phosphorylates MtrA in response to environmental signals (By similarity). MtrB may be active only at septa where it promotes MtrA phosphorylation and MtrA regulon expression, probably playing a role in cell division. (528 aa)
ripASecreted cell wall-associated hydrolase; Peptidoglycan endopeptidase that cleaves the bond between D- glutamate and meso-diaminopimelate. Binds and degrades high-molecular weight peptidoglycan. Required for normal separation of daughter cells after cell division and for cell wall integrity (By similarity). (497 aa)
sepFConserved hypothetical protein; Cell division protein that is part of the divisome complex and is recruited early to the Z-ring. Probably stimulates Z-ring formation, perhaps through the cross-linking of FtsZ protofilaments. Its function overlaps with FtsA. (214 aa)
murAUDP-N-acetylglucosamine 1-carboxyvinyltransferase; Cell wall formation. Adds enolpyruvyl to UDP-N- acetylglucosamine; Belongs to the EPSP synthase family. MurA subfamily. (418 aa)
