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

Score
erpAIron-sulfur cluster insertion protein erpA; Belongs to the HesB/IscA family. (111 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
nifS
Cysteine desulfurase.
  
  
 0.895
nifU
NifU-like protein; A scaffold on which IscS assembles Fe-S clusters. It is likely that Fe-S cluster coordination is flexible as the role of this complex is to build and then hand off Fe-S clusters.
  
  
 0.862
hscB
Co-chaperone protein hscB; Co-chaperone involved in the maturation of iron-sulfur cluster-containing proteins. Seems to help targeting proteins to be folded toward HscA; Belongs to the HscB family.
  
 
 0.826
grxD
Monothiol glutaredoxin; Belongs to the glutaredoxin family. Monothiol subfamily.
  
 0.750
AIL65350.1
Fe-S cluster assembly protein NifU.
 
 
 0.714
kdsA
2-dehydro-3-deoxyphosphooctonate aldolase; Belongs to the KdsA family.
       0.714
AIL65386.1
Aminomethyltransferase related to GcvT; Belongs to the GcvT family.
 
 
 0.631
iscS
Cysteine desulfurase; Master enzyme that delivers sulfur to a number of partners involved in Fe-S cluster assembly, tRNA modification or cofactor biosynthesis. Catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur atoms from cysteine to produce alanine. Functions as a sulfur delivery protein for Fe-S cluster synthesis onto IscU, an Fe-S scaffold assembly protein, as well as other S acceptor proteins.
  
  
 0.629
grpE
HSP-70 cofactor; Participates actively in the response to hyperosmotic and heat shock by preventing the aggregation of stress-denatured proteins, in association with DnaK and GrpE. It is the nucleotide exchange factor for DnaK and may function as a thermosensor. Unfolded proteins bind initially to DnaJ; upon interaction with the DnaJ-bound protein, DnaK hydrolyzes its bound ATP, resulting in the formation of a stable complex. GrpE releases ADP from DnaK; ATP binding to DnaK triggers the release of the substrate protein, thus completing the reaction cycle. Several rounds of ATP-dependen [...]

AIL65484.1
Antiporter inner membrane protein; Binds and transfers iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters to target apoproteins. Can hydrolyze ATP; Belongs to the Mrp/NBP35 ATP-binding proteins family.
