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.

mltGHypothetical protein; Functions as a peptidoglycan terminase that cleaves nascent peptidoglycan strands endolytically to terminate their elongation. Belongs to the transglycosylase MltG family. (377 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ftsZ
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.

udk
Uridine kinase; Functions in pyrimidine salvage; pyrimidine ribonucleoside kinase; phosphorylates nucleosides or dinucleosides to make UMP or CMP using ATP or GTP as the donor; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
    0.742
KML38420.1
Rod shape-determining protein MreC; Involved in formation and maintenance of cell shape.
 
  
 0.699
KML40547.1
SAM-dependent methyltransferase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
    0.688
ftsZ-2
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.

KML40513.1
Peptidase U32; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
    0.666
gpsB
Cell division protein DivIVA; Divisome component that associates with the complex late in its assembly, after the Z-ring is formed, and is dependent on DivIC and PBP2B for its recruitment to the divisome. Together with EzrA, is a key component of the system that regulates PBP1 localization during cell cycle progression. Its main role could be the removal of PBP1 from the cell pole after pole maturation is completed. Also contributes to the recruitment of PBP1 to the division complex. Not essential for septum formation.
  
   
 0.643
minC
Septum formation inhibitor; Cell division inhibitor that blocks the formation of polar Z ring septums. Rapidly oscillates between the poles of the cell to destabilize FtsZ filaments that have formed before they mature into polar Z rings. Prevents FtsZ polymerization; Belongs to the MinC family.
 
  
 0.643
ftsA
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.
 
  
 0.636
KML40182.1
Hypothetical protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the UPF0374 family.
