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. (374 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dtdA
Conserved hypothetical protein; D-aminoacyl-tRNA deacylase with broad substrate specificity. By recycling D-aminoacyl-tRNA to D-amino acids and free tRNA molecules, this enzyme counteracts the toxicity associated with the formation of D-aminoacyl-tRNA entities in vivo.
     0.832
secE
Protein translocase SEC61 complex gamma subunit; Essential subunit of the Sec protein translocation channel SecYEG. Clamps together the 2 halves of SecY. May contact the channel plug during translocation.
  
  
 0.821
secD
Protein-export membrane protein SecD; Involved in protein export.
 
  
 0.814
uppS-2
Di-trans-poly-cis-decaprenylcistransferase; Catalyzes the sequential condensation of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) with geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) to yield (2Z,6Z,10Z,14Z,18Z,22Z,26Z,30E,34E,38E)-undecaprenyl diphosphate (tritrans,heptacis-UPP). It is probably the precursor of glycosyl carrier lipids.
 
  
 0.814
spt5
Transcription antitermination protein NusG; Stimulates transcription elongation; Belongs to the archaeal Spt5 family.
 
   
 0.797
srp54
Signal recognition particle, 54 kDa protein; Involved in targeting and insertion of nascent membrane proteins into the cytoplasmic membrane. Binds to the hydrophobic signal sequence of the ribosome-nascent chain (RNC) as it emerges from the ribosomes. The SRP-RNC complex is then targeted to the cytoplasmic membrane where it interacts with the SRP receptor FtsY. Belongs to the GTP-binding SRP family. SRP54 subfamily.
  
  
 0.776
cetZ
Cell division protein FtsZ; Involved in cell shape control; Belongs to the CetZ family.
 
  
0.702
pcnA
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen; Sliding clamp subunit that acts as a moving platform for DNA processing. Responsible for tethering the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase and other proteins to DNA during high-speed replication. Belongs to the PCNA family.
 
  
 0.686
ftsY
Signal recognition particle receptor; Involved in targeting and insertion of nascent membrane proteins into the cytoplasmic membrane. Acts as a receptor for the complex formed by the signal recognition particle (SRP) and the ribosome-nascent chain (RNC).
     
 0.685
tatC
Translocase protein; Part of the twin-arginine translocation (Tat) system that transports large folded proteins containing a characteristic twin- arginine motif in their signal peptide across membranes.
 
   
 0.664
