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

mtgAMonofunctional biosynthetic peptidoglycan transglycosylase; Peptidoglycan polymerase that catalyzes glycan chain elongation from lipid-linked precursors; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 51 family. (243 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ftsK
DNA translocase FtsK; DNA-binding membrane protein required for chromosome resolution and partitioning; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
   
 
 0.815
mrdA
Penicillin-binding protein 2; Catalyzes cross-linking of the peptidoglycan cell wall. Belongs to the transpeptidase family. MrdA subfamily.
 
 
 
 0.805
elbB
Glutamine amidotransferase; Displays glyoxalase activity, catalyzing the conversion of glyoxal to glycolate; Belongs to the peptidase C56 family.
       0.803
ftsN
Cell division protein FtsN; Essential cell division protein that activates septal peptidoglycan synthesis and constriction of the cell. Acts on both sides of the membrane, via interaction with FtsA in the cytoplasm and interaction with the FtsQBL complex in the periplasm. These interactions may induce a conformational switch in both FtsA and FtsQBL, leading to septal peptidoglycan synthesis by FtsI and associated synthases.
   
 
 0.743
ftsI
Peptidoglycan glycosyltransferase FtsI; Catalyzes cross-linking of the peptidoglycan cell wall at the division septum; Belongs to the transpeptidase family. FtsI subfamily.
 
 
 
 0.729
ampH
D-alanyl-D-alanine- carboxypeptidase/endopeptidase AmpH; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
   
  
 0.688
APZ04882.1
Serine-type D-Ala-D-Ala carboxypeptidase; Penicillin binding protein 4; penicillin sensitive; catalyzes the formation of D-alanine from D-alanyl-D-alanine; one of four, DD-carboxypeptidase low-molecular weight penicillin-binding proteins that remove terminal D-alanine from pentapeptide side chains; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
  
 0.656
rodA
Rod shape-determining protein RodA; Peptidoglycan polymerase that is essential for cell wall elongation; Belongs to the SEDS family. MrdB/RodA subfamily.
 
 
 
 0.634
mltF
Lytic transglycosylase F; Murein-degrading enzyme that degrades murein glycan strands and insoluble, high-molecular weight murein sacculi, with the concomitant formation of a 1,6-anhydromuramoyl product. Lytic transglycosylases (LTs) play an integral role in the metabolism of the peptidoglycan (PG) sacculus. Their lytic action creates space within the PG sacculus to allow for its expansion as well as for the insertion of various structures such as secretion systems and flagella.
     
 0.626
mltC
Murein transglycosylase C; Murein-degrading enzyme. May play a role in recycling of muropeptides during cell elongation and/or cell division.
