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

AKU11570.1Mercuric transport protein (Mercury ion transport protein). (71 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
AKU11569.1
Repressor/inducer protein.
 
  
 0.863
merP
MerTP family mercury (Hg2+) permease, binding protein MerP; Involved in mercury resistance. Acts as a mercury scavenger that specifically binds to a mercuric ion in the periplasm and probably passes it to the cytoplasmic mercuric reductase MerA via the mercuric transport protein MerT.
 
  
 0.817
AKU11577.1
Mercuric resistance operon regulatory protein.
 
  
 0.694
AKU10916.1
AMP-dependent synthetase and ligase.
  
 
 0.648
ybeY
Hypothetical protein; Single strand-specific metallo-endoribonuclease involved in late-stage 70S ribosome quality control and in maturation of the 3' terminus of the 16S rRNA.
 
 
  0.645
AKU12982.1
Putative transcriptional regulator, MerR family.
 
  
 0.622
AKU11568.1
Transporter.
       0.578
rpsQ
30S ribosomal protein S17; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds specifically to the 5'-end of 16S ribosomal RNA.
   
  0.516
AKU11576.1
MerR family transcriptional regulator.
 
  
 0.494
AKU13034.1
Superoxide dismutase (Fe); Destroys radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems. Belongs to the iron/manganese superoxide dismutase family.
  
 
 0.482
