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.

pfbAHypothetical protein; Acts as a fibronectin-dependent adhesin and invasin. Binds host (in this case human) fibronectin, plasmin, plasminogen, and human serum albumin. Where the bacteria adhere to human cells there is major recruitment of microvilli which seem to fuse to cover the streptococcal chains. Antibodies to this protein reduce bacterial growth in human blood. (719 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
flpA
Fibronectin-binding protein-like protein A; Part of the ribosome quality control system (RQC). Recruits Ala-charged tRNA and directs the elongation of stalled nascent chains on 50S ribosomal subunits, leading to non-templated C-terminal Ala extensions (Ala tail). The Ala tail promotes nascent chain degradation. May add between 1 and at least 8 Ala residues. Binds to stalled 50S ribosomal subunits.
