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

def-2Putative polypeptide deformylase; Removes the formyl group from the N-terminal Met of newly synthesized proteins. Requires at least a dipeptide for an efficient rate of reaction. N-terminal L-methionine is a prerequisite for activity but the enzyme has broad specificity at other positions. (194 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpsT
Ribosomal protein S20; Binds directly to 16S ribosomal RNA.
  
 
 0.872
tig
Trigger factor; Involved in protein export. Acts as a chaperone by maintaining the newly synthesized protein in an open conformation. Functions as a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase; Belongs to the FKBP-type PPIase family. Tig subfamily.
  
 
 0.870
rplR
Ribosomal protein L18; This is one of the proteins that binds and probably mediates the attachment of the 5S RNA into the large ribosomal subunit, where it forms part of the central protuberance.
  
 
   0.863
rpsU
Ribosomal protein S21; Identified by match to protein family HMM TIGR00030; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bS21 family.
  
 
 0.861
rplU
Ribosomal protein L21; This protein binds to 23S rRNA in the presence of protein L20; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL21 family.
  
   0.860
rplV
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).
    
   0.858
rplQ
Ribosomal protein L17; Identified by similarity to SP:P02416; match to protein family HMM PF01196; match to protein family HMM TIGR00059.
    
   0.856
rpsP
Ribosomal protein S16; Identified by similarity to SP:P02372; match to protein family HMM PF00886; match to protein family HMM TIGR00002; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bS16 family.
  
   0.854
rpmB
50S ribosomal protein L28; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF00830; match to protein family HMM TIGR00009; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL28 family.
  
   0.853
rpmA
Ribosomal protein L27; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF01016; match to protein family HMM TIGR00062; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL27 family.
