STRINGSTRING
STRING protein interaction network
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

CfaHypothetical protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology. (257 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
scpA-2
Peptidase C5; This virulence factor of S.pyogenes specifically cleaves the human serum chemotaxin C5a at '68-Lys-|-Asp-69' bond near its C- terminus, destroying its ability to serve as a chemoattractant.
  
  
 0.869
scpB
Segregation protein A; Participates in chromosomal partition during cell division. May act via the formation of a condensin-like complex containing Smc and ScpA that pull DNA away from mid-cell into both cell halves.
     
 0.863
csrR
PhoB family transcriptional regulator; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
   
  
 0.862
csrS
ATPase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
   
  
 0.827
lmb
Adhesion protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the bacterial solute-binding protein 9 family.
   
  
 0.820
hylA
Hyaluronate lyase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
   
  
 0.798
ska
Kinase; This protein is not a protease, but it activates plasminogen by complexing with it. As a potential virulence factor, it is thought to prevent the formation of effective fibrin barriers around the site of infection, thereby contributing to the invasiveness of the cells (By similarity).
   
  
 0.633
speB
Peptidase C10; Important streptococcal virulence factor which cleaves human fibronectin and degrades vitronectin. Also cleaves human IL1B precursor to form biologically active IL1B. Can induce apoptosis in human monocytes and epithelial cells in vitro, and reduces phagocytic activity in monocytic cells. Thus, may play a role in bacterial colonization, invasion, and inhibition of wound healing. Belongs to the peptidase C10 family.
   
  
 0.422
arsC
Arsenate reductase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the ArsC family.
   
  
 0.412
