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

pppLPhosphoprotein phosphatase; Protein phosphatase able to dephosphorylate StkP-P and other phosphorylated protein substrates. PhpP and its cognate protein kinase StkP appear to constitute a functional signaling couple in vivo, PhpP's primary role being probably to control phosphorylation levels of StkP and of its targets. PhpP thus performs an essential control of StkP activity (By similarity); Belongs to the PP2C family. (246 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pkn2
Eukaryotic-type serine/threonine kinase; Protein kinase involved in signal transduction pathways that regulate various cellular processes. Likely senses intracellular peptidoglycan subunits present in the cell division septa of actively growing cells; thus, intracellular unlinked peptidoglycan may serve as the signal molecules that trigger StkP phosphorylation activity on a set of substrates. Plays a crucial role in the regulation of cell shape and cell division of S.pneumoniae through control of at least DivIVA activity. Identified target substrates that are specifically phosphorylate [...]

sunL
rRNA methylase; Specifically methylates the cytosine at position 967 (m5C967) of 16S rRNA.
  
  
 0.950
fmt
Methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase; Attaches a formyl group to the free amino group of methionyl- tRNA(fMet). The formyl group appears to play a dual role in the initiator identity of N-formylmethionyl-tRNA by promoting its recognition by IF2 and preventing the misappropriation of this tRNA by the elongation apparatus; Belongs to the Fmt family.

acoL
Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase.
  
 0.915
divIVA
Cell-division initiation protein (septum placement); Appears to have a multifaceted role in controlling cell morphology, completion of cell division and separation, as well as chromosome segregation, through a complex interaction web. Seems to be primarily involved in the formation and maturation of the cell poles.
      
 0.843
priA
Primosomal replication factor Y; Involved in the restart of stalled replication forks. Recognizes and binds the arrested nascent DNA chain at stalled replication forks. It can open the DNA duplex, via its helicase activity, and promote assembly of the primosome and loading of the major replicative helicase DnaB onto DNA; Belongs to the helicase family. PriA subfamily.
  
    0.829
pphA
Serine/threonine protein phosphatase.
    
 
 0.823
mapZ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Early cell division protein that marks the future cell division site and supports proper FtsZ ring positioning.
     
 0.733
gpsB
Conserved hypothetical protein; 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.
