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

zapACell division protein ZapA; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology. (145 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ezrA_2
Septation ring formation regulator EzrA; Negative regulator of FtsZ ring formation; modulates the frequency and position of FtsZ ring formation. Inhibits FtsZ ring formation at polar sites. Interacts either with FtsZ or with one of its binding partners to promote depolymerization; Belongs to the EzrA family.

CvpA
Colicin V production protein CvpA; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
  
 0.916
ftsZ_1
Cell division protein FtsZ; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity.
   
 
 0.910
sepF_1
Cell division protein; Cell division protein that is part of the divisome complex and is recruited early to the Z-ring. Probably stimulates Z-ring formation, perhaps through the cross-linking of FtsZ protofilaments. Its function overlaps with FtsA.
    
 
 0.866
ftsA_1
Cell division protein FtsA; Cell division protein that is involved in the assembly of the Z ring. May serve as a membrane anchor for the Z ring. Belongs to the FtsA/MreB family.
    
 
 0.866
ftsQ_1
Cell division protein FtsQ; Cell division protein that may be involved in stabilizing or promoting the assembly of the division complex; Belongs to the FtsQ/DivIB family. DivIB subfamily.
  
   
 0.845
rnhC
Ribonuclease HIII; Endonuclease that specifically degrades the RNA of RNA-DNA hybrids.
  
    0.827
spoIIIE
Cell division protein FtsK; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the FtsK/SpoIIIE/SftA family.
      
 0.792
mutS2
DNA mismatch repair protein MutS; Endonuclease that is involved in the suppression of homologous recombination and may therefore have a key role in the control of bacterial genetic diversity; Belongs to the DNA mismatch repair MutS family. MutS2 subfamily.
       0.785
trxA
Thioredoxin; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the thioredoxin family.
