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

Your Input:
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.

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)
