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:
ftsITranspeptidase involved in septal peptidoglycan synthesis; Essential cell division protein that catalyzes cross-linking of the peptidoglycan cell wall at the division septum. Required for localization of FtsN. Belongs to the transpeptidase family. FtsI subfamily. (588 aa)
ftsWPutative lipid II flippase; Peptidoglycan polymerase that is essential for cell division (Probable). Functions probably in conjunction with the penicillin- binding protein 3 (ftsI). Required for localization of FtsI. (414 aa)
mrcBFused glycosyl transferase and transpeptidase; 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); In the N-terminal section; belongs to the glycosyltransferase 51 family. (844 aa)
mrdBCell wall shape-determining protein; Peptidoglycan polymerase that is essential for cell wall elongation. Also required for the maintenance of the rod cell shape. Functions probably in conjunction with the penicillin-binding protein 2 (mrdA). (370 aa)
lpoBOM lipoprotein stimulator of MrcB transpeptidase; Regulator of peptidoglycan synthesis that is essential for the function of penicillin-binding protein 1B (PBP1b). Stimulates transpeptidase and transglycosylase activities of PBP1b in vitro. May also contribute to outer membrane constriction during cell division, in complex with PBP1b. (213 aa)
lpoAOM lipoprotein stimulator of MrcA transpeptidase; Regulator of peptidoglycan synthesis that is essential for the function of penicillin-binding protein 1A (PBP1a). Stimulates transpeptidase activity of PBP1a in vitro. (678 aa)
dacBD-alanyl-D-alanine carboxypeptidase; Not involved in transpeptidation but exclusively catalyzes a DD-carboxypeptidase and DD-endopeptidase reaction. Belongs to the peptidase S13 family. (477 aa)
