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:
fieFFerrous iron and zinc transporter; Iron-efflux transporter responsible for iron detoxification. Also able to transport Zn(2+) in a proton-dependent manner. Belongs to the cation diffusion facilitator (CDF) transporter (TC 2.A.4) family. FieF subfamily. (300 aa)
zitBZinc efflux system; Involved in zinc efflux across the cytoplasmic membrane, thus reducing zinc accumulation in the cytoplasm and rendering bacteria more resistant to zinc. It may contribute to zinc homeostasis at low concentrations of zinc, whereas ZntA is required for growth at more toxic concentrations; Belongs to the cation diffusion facilitator (CDF) transporter (TC 2.A.4) family. SLC30A subfamily. (313 aa)
zinTZinc and cadmium binding protein, periplasmic; May function as a periplasmic zinc chaperone or mediate direct transport of zinc from the periplasm to the cytoplasm under zinc-limited conditions. Binds zinc with high affinity, and can also bind cadmium, mercury or nickel. Preferentially binds Zn(2+) over Cd(2+). Contains one high affinity metal binding site, and can bind additional metal ions at other sites; Belongs to the calycin superfamily. ZinT family. (216 aa)
zupTZinc transporter; Mediates zinc uptake. May also transport other divalent cations such as copper and cadmium ions; Belongs to the ZIP transporter (TC 2.A.5) family. ZupT subfamily. (257 aa)
zntAZinc, cobalt and lead efflux system; Confers resistance to zinc, cadmium and lead. Couples the hydrolysis of ATP with the export of zinc, cadmium or lead, with highest activity when the metals are present as metal-thiolate complexes. Can also bind nickel, copper, cobalt and mercury. Belongs to the cation transport ATPase (P-type) (TC 3.A.3) family. Type IB subfamily. (732 aa)
