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:
PE_PGRS5PE-PGRS family protein PE_PGRS5; Involved in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated apoptosis through human Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathway. Localizes to the host ER, leading to ER stress, disruption of intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis and increase of nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Stress response results in caspase-8 activation and apoptosis of macrophage cells. Apoptosis may lead to dissemination of the bacteria, thereby spreading the disease. Belongs to the mycobacterial PE family. PGRS subfamily. (591 aa)
PPE2Rv0256c, (MTV034.22c), len: 556 aa. PPE2, Member of the M. tuberculosis PPE family, similar to many e.g. Rv0280, Rv0286, etc. Equivalent to Z98756|MLCB2492.30 from Mycobacterium leprae (572 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1837,E(): 0, (62.9% identity in 461 aa overlap). A core mycobacterial gene; conserved in mycobacterial strains (See Marmiesse et al., 2004). (556 aa)
groEL260 kDa chaperonin 2; Prevents aggregation of substrate proteins and promotes their refolding. (540 aa)
ptpAPhosphotyrosine protein phosphatase PtpA (protein-tyrosine-phosphatase) (PTPase) (LMW phosphatase); Mediates host-pathogen interaction and interferes with vesicular trafficking in the infected macrophage. Inhibits host phagolysosomal fusion in M.tuberculosis-infected macrophages to promote bacteria survival. Dephosphorylates host VPS33B protein, which induces a block of the host phagosome maturation within macrophage cells. Acts on tyrosine phosphorylated proteins, low-MW aryl phosphates and natural and synthetic acyl phosphates; Belongs to the low molecular weight phosphotyrosine prot [...] (163 aa)
eisEnhanced intracellular survival protein Eis,GCN5-related N-acetyltransferase; Effector that is released into the host cell and affects host immune responses; it negatively modulates inflammation, macrophage autophagy, and cell death through redox-dependent signaling. Acts as an acetyltransferase. Acetylates 'Lys-55' of dual-specificity protein phosphatase 16 (DUSP16)/mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-7 (MKP-7), a JNK- specific phosphatase; this leads to the inhibition of JNK-dependent autophagy, phagosome maturation, and ROS (reactive oxygen species) generation for enhanced [...] (402 aa)
devRTwo component transcriptional regulatory protein DevR (probably LuxR/UhpA-family); Member of the two-component regulatory system DevR/DevS (also called DosR/DosS) involved in onset of the dormancy response. Regulates an approximately 48-member regulon. When phosphorylated binds and activates the promoter of DevR regulon genes in response to hypoxia. The presence of target DNA increases stability of phospho-DevR in vitro. Activates its own transcription under hypoxic but not aerobic conditions, probably binds as a dimer to tandem binding sites within the devR and hspX promoters. Accepts [...] (217 aa)
sapMAcid phosphatase (acid phosphomonoesterase) (phosphomonoesterase) (glycerophosphatase); Virulence factor that plays an important role in blocking phagosome-lysosome fusion and thus participates in the intracellular survival of the pathogen. Acts as a phosphatase that dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P), a membrane trafficking regulatory lipid essential for phagosomal acquisition of lysosomal constituents. Therefore, SapM eliminates PI3P from the phagosomal membrane by catalyzing its hydrolysis, and thus contributes to inhibition of phagosome maturation. Also interf [...] (299 aa)
esxB10 kDa culture filtrate antigen EsxB (LHP) (CFP10); A secreted protein. Acts as a strong host (human) T-cell antigen. Involved in translocation of bacteria from the host (human) phagolysosome to the host cytoplasm. Might serve as a chaperone to prevent uncontrolled membrane lysis by its partner EsxA; native protein binds poorly to artificial liposomes in the absence or presence of EsxA. EsxA and EsxA-EsxB are cytotoxic to pneumocytes. EsxB (and EsxA-EsxB but not EsxA alone) activates human neutrophils; EsxB transiently induces host (human) intracellular Ca(2+) mobility in a dose-depend [...] (100 aa)
esxA6 kDa early secretory antigenic target EsxA (ESAT-6); A secreted protein that plays a number of roles in modulating the host's immune response to infection as well as being responsible for bacterial escape into the host cytoplasm. Acts as a strong host (human) T-cell antigen. Inhibits IL- 12 p40 (IL12B) and TNF-alpha expression by infected host (mouse) macrophages, reduces the nitric oxide response by about 75%. In mice previously exposed to the bacterium, elicits high level of IFN-gamma production by T-cells upon subsequent challenge by M.tuberculosis, in the first phase of a protecti [...] (95 aa)
