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

gyrADNA gyrase subunit A; A type II topoisomerase that negatively supercoils closed circular double-stranded (ds) DNA in an ATP-dependent manner to modulate DNA topology and maintain chromosomes in an underwound state. Negative supercoiling favors strand separation, and DNA replication, transcription, recombination and repair, all of which involve strand separation. Also able to catalyze the interconversion of other topological isomers of dsDNA rings, including catenanes and knotted rings. Type II topoisomerases break and join 2 DNA strands simultaneously in an ATP-dependent manner. (863 aa)

rplD
50S ribosomal protein L4; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, this protein initially binds near the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly. It makes multiple contacts with different domains of the 23S rRNA in the assembled 50S subunit and ribosome (By similarity).
   
  
 0.852
rpoB
DNA-directed RNA polymerase beta chain; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
  
  
 0.843
metS
methionyl-tRNA synthetase; Is required not only for elongation of protein synthesis but also for the initiation of all mRNA translation through initiator tRNA(fMet) aminoacylation.
  
  
 0.818
rpoA
DNA-directed RNA polymerase alpha chain; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
  
  
 0.805
rplV
50S ribosomal protein L22; This protein binds specifically to 23S rRNA; its binding is stimulated by other ribosomal proteins, e.g. L4, L17, and L20. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly. It makes multiple contacts with different domains of the 23S rRNA in the assembled 50S subunit and ribosome (By similarity).

mapA
Putative liproprotein; Original (2000) note: Cj1029c, mapA, probable lipoprotein, len: 214 aa; identical to TR:Q46122 (EMBL:X80135) C. jeuni species specific mapA gene (214 aa). No Hp match. Contains probable N-terminal signal sequence and appropriately positioned PS00013 Prokaryotic membrane lipoprotein lipid attachment site; Updated (2006) note: Studied in Campylobacter jejuni. No specific characterisation has been carried out yet. Functional classification - Membranes, lipoproteins and porins; PMID:7790451.

ftsZ
Cell division protein FfsZ; 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.

rpsL
30S ribosomal protein S12; With S4 and S5 plays an important role in translational accuracy.
   
  
 0.775
flaA
Flagellin; Flagellin is the subunit protein which polymerizes to form the filaments of bacterial flagella. FlaA binds to flagellar assembly factor FliW protein, preventing FliW from binding to CsrA, so that CsrA can then bind flaA mRNA and represses its translation.
