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

rbpAHypothetical protein; Binds to RNA polymerase (RNAP), stimulating transcription from principal, but not alternative sigma factor promoters. Belongs to the RNA polymerase-binding protein RbpA family. (112 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
CarD
CarD family transcriptional regulator; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
    
 
 0.991
rpoZ
DNA-directed RNA polymerase subunit omega; Promotes RNA polymerase assembly. Latches the N- and C- terminal regions of the beta' subunit thereby facilitating its interaction with the beta and alpha subunits.
  
 
 
 0.991
rpoB
DNA-directed RNA polymerase subunit beta; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the RNA polymerase beta chain family.
    
 
 0.989
RpoC
DNA-directed RNA polymerase subunit beta; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
    
 
 0.980
rpoD
RNA polymerase subunit sigma; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is the primary sigma factor during exponential growth.
    
 
 0.974
rpoA
DNA-directed RNA polymerase subunit alpha; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
  
 
 
 0.968
MysB
RNA polymerase subunit sigma; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released.
    
 
 0.960
PafC
Protein pafC; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
 
 
 
 0.925
WhiB7
Hypothetical protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
 
 
 0.919
