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

hfqRNA-binding protein Hfq; RNA chaperone that binds small regulatory RNA (sRNAs) and mRNAs to facilitate mRNA translational regulation in response to envelope stress, environmental stress and changes in metabolite concentrations. Also binds with high specificity to tRNAs. Belongs to the Hfq family. (77 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
miaA
tRNA delta(2)-isopentenylpyrophosphate transferase; Catalyzes the transfer of a dimethylallyl group onto the adenine at position 37 in tRNAs that read codons beginning with uridine, leading to the formation of N6-(dimethylallyl)adenosine (i(6)A); Belongs to the IPP transferase family.
  
  
 0.922
pnp
Polynucleotide phosphorylase; Involved in mRNA degradation. Catalyzes the phosphorolysis of single-stranded polyribonucleotides processively in the 3'- to 5'- direction.
    
 
 0.867
KML36972.1
Exodeoxyribonuclease III; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
    
 
 0.858
clpX
ATP-dependent protease; ATP-dependent specificity component of the Clp protease. It directs the protease to specific substrates. Can perform chaperone functions in the absence of ClpP.
   
  
 0.812
csrA
Carbon storage regulator; A translational regulator that binds mRNA to regulate translation initiation and/or mRNA stability. Usually binds in the 5'- UTR at or near the Shine-Dalgarno sequence preventing ribosome-binding, thus repressing translation. Its main target seems to be the major flagellin gene, while its function is anatagonized by FliW.
   
  
 0.807
KML39819.1
Catalase; Serves to protect cells from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide.
    
 
 0.785
cca
tRNA nucleotidyltransferase; Catalyzes the addition and repair of the essential 3'- terminal CCA sequence in tRNAs without using a nucleic acid template. Adds these three nucleotides in the order of C, C, and A to the tRNA nucleotide-73, using CTP and ATP as substrates and producing inorganic pyrophosphate.
    
 
 0.781
KML43596.1
Catalase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the catalase family.
    
 
 0.776
KML40859.1
Catalase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the catalase family.
    
 
 0.776
KML45257.1
DNA-directed RNA polymerase subunit N; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
