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.

ftsZCell 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. (394 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
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.
 
 
 0.999
ylmF
ylmF protein; Cell division protein that is part of the divisome complex and is recruited early to the Z-ring. Probably stimulates Z-ring formation, perhaps through the cross-linking of FtsZ protofilaments. Its function overlaps with FtsA.
  
 
 0.992
ypfP
ypfP protein; Processive glucosyltransferase involved in the biosynthesis of both the bilayer- and non-bilayer-forming membrane glucolipids. Is able to successively transfer two glucosyl residues to diacylglycerol (DAG), thereby catalyzing the formation of beta-monoglucosyl-DAG (3-O- (beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol) and beta-diglucosyl-DAG (3-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl-beta-(1->6)-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,2-diacyl- sn-glycerol). Beta-diglucosyl-DAG is the predominant glycolipid found in Bacillales and is also used as a membrane anchor for lipoteichoic acid (LTA).
  
 
 0.944
divIB
Cell division protein FtsQ, putative; Cell division protein that may be involved in stabilizing or promoting the assembly of the division complex; Belongs to the FtsQ/DivIB family. DivIB subfamily.
  
  
 0.918
murG
Undecaprenyl-PP-MurNAc-pentapeptide-UDPGlcNAc GlcNAc transferase; Cell wall formation. Catalyzes the transfer of a GlcNAc subunit on undecaprenyl-pyrophosphoryl-MurNAc-pentapeptide (lipid intermediate I) to form undecaprenyl-pyrophosphoryl-MurNAc- (pentapeptide)GlcNAc (lipid intermediate II); Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 28 family. MurG subfamily.
 
 
 0.875
ezrA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Negative regulator of FtsZ ring formation; modulates the frequency and position of FtsZ ring formation. Inhibits FtsZ ring formation at polar sites. Interacts either with FtsZ or with one of its binding partners to promote depolymerization; Belongs to the EzrA family.
    
 
 0.847
mraW
S-adenosyl-methyltransferase MraW; Specifically methylates the N4 position of cytidine in position 1402 (C1402) of 16S rRNA.
 
   
 0.842
recA
recA protein; Can catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP in the presence of single- stranded DNA, the ATP-dependent uptake of single-stranded DNA by duplex DNA, and the ATP-dependent hybridization of homologous single-stranded DNAs. It interacts with LexA causing its activation and leading to its autocatalytic cleavage; Belongs to the RecA family.
 
 
 
 0.824
SERP0757
Cell-division initiation protein, putative; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF05103.
  
  
 0.823
murD
UDP-N-acetylmuramoylalanine--D-glutamate ligase; Cell wall formation. Catalyzes the addition of glutamate to the nucleotide precursor UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine (UMA). Belongs to the MurCDEF family.
