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:
fimAMajor type 1 subunit fimbrin (pilin); Fimbriae (also called pili), polar filaments radiating from the surface of the bacterium to a length of 0.5-1.5 micrometers and numbering 100-300 per cell, enable bacteria to colonize the epithelium of specific host organs. (182 aa)
sfmAFimA homolog, function unknown; Part of the sfmACDHF fimbrial operon. Could contribute to adhesion to various surfaces in specific environmental niches. Increases adhesion to eukaryotic T24 bladder epithelial cells in the absence of fim genes. (180 aa)
sfmHFimA homolog, function unknown; Part of the sfmACDHF fimbrial operon. Could contribute to adhesion to various surfaces in specific environmental niches. Increases adhesion to eukaryotic T24 bladder epithelial cells in the absence of fim genes. (327 aa)
narKNitrate/nitrite transporter; Catalyzes nitrate uptake, nitrite uptake and nitrite export across the cytoplasmic membrane. Functions as a nitrate/nitrite exchanger, and protons are probably not co-transported with the substrate. (463 aa)
napCQuinol dehydrogenase, electron source for NapAB; Mediates electron flow from quinones to the NapAB complex. (200 aa)
napHFerredoxin-type protein; Required for electron transfer from ubiquinol, via NapC, to the periplasmic nitrate reductase NapAB complex. (287 aa)
napANitrate reductase, periplasmic, large subunit; Catalytic subunit of the periplasmic nitrate reductase complex NapAB. Receives electrons from NapB and catalyzes the reduction of nitrate to nitrite; Belongs to the prokaryotic molybdopterin-containing oxidoreductase family. NasA/NapA/NarB subfamily. (828 aa)
nirBNitrite reductase, large subunit, NAD(P)H-binding; Nitrite reductase (NAD(P)H) subunit; Protein involved in anaerobic respiration; Belongs to the nitrite and sulfite reductase 4Fe-4S domain family. (847 aa)
nirCNitrite transporter; Catalyzes nitrite uptake and nitrite export across the cytoplasmic membrane. Is up to 10-fold more active than NarK or NarU in nitrite uptake for subsequent reduction in the cytoplasm by the NirB/NirD nitrite reductase; Belongs to the FNT transporter (TC 2.A.44) family. (268 aa)
nrfANitrite reductase, formate-dependent, cytochrome; Catalyzes the reduction of nitrite to ammonia, consuming six electrons in the process. Has very low activity toward hydroxylamine. Has even lower activity toward sulfite. Sulfite reductase activity is maximal at neutral pH (By similarity). (478 aa)
hfqGlobal sRNA chaperone; RNA chaperone that binds small regulatory RNA (sRNAs) and mRNAs to facilitate mRNA translational regulation in response to envelope stress, environmental stress and changes in metabolite concentrations. Involved in the regulation of stress responses mediated by the sigma factors RpoS, sigma-E and sigma-32. Binds with high specificity to tRNAs. Binds sRNA antitoxin RalA. In vitro, stimulates synthesis of long tails by poly(A) polymerase I. Required for RNA phage Qbeta replication. Seems to play a role in persister cell formation; upon overexpression decreases pers [...] (102 aa)
fimBTyrosine recombinase/inversion of on/off regulator of fimA; FimB is one of the 2 regulatory proteins which control the phase variation of type 1 fimbriae in E.coli. These proteins mediate the periodic inversion of a 300bp DNA segment that harbors the promoter for the fimbrial structural gene, FimA. FimB switches FimA on. (200 aa)
fimHMinor component of type 1 fimbriae; Involved in regulation of length and mediation of adhesion of type 1 fimbriae (but not necessary for the production of fimbriae). Adhesin responsible for the binding to D-mannose. It is laterally positioned at intervals in the structure of the type 1 fimbriae. In order to integrate FimH in the fimbriae FimF and FimG are needed. (300 aa)
lacZbeta-D-galactosidase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 2 family. (1024 aa)
glnKNitrogen assimilation regulatory protein for GlnL, GlnE, and AmtB; P-II indirectly controls the transcription of the glutamine synthetase gene (glnA). P-II prevents NR-II-catalyzed conversion of NR- I to NR-I-phosphate, the transcriptional activator of GlnA. When P-II is uridylylated to P-II-UMP, these events are reversed. When the ratio of Gln to 2-ketoglutarate decreases, P-II is uridylylated to P-II-UMP, which causes the deadenylation of glutamine synthetase by GlnE, so activating the enzyme (By similarity); Belongs to the P(II) protein family. (112 aa)
amtBAmmonium transporter; Involved in the uptake of ammonia; Belongs to the ammonia transporter channel (TC 1.A.11.2) family. (428 aa)
