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

zapAConserved hypothetical protein; Activator of cell division through the inhibition of FtsZ GTPase activity, therefore promoting FtsZ assembly into bundles of protofilaments necessary for the formation of the division Z ring. It is recruited early at mid-cell but it is not essential for cell division. (109 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
mreD
Rod shape-determining protein; Involved in formation of the rod shape of the cell. May also contribute to regulation of formation of penicillin-binding proteins. Belongs to the MreD family.
  
   
 0.678
zapB
Conserved hypothetical protein; Non-essential, abundant cell division factor that is required for proper Z-ring formation. It is recruited early to the divisome by direct interaction with FtsZ, stimulating Z-ring assembly and thereby promoting cell division earlier in the cell cycle. Its recruitment to the Z-ring requires functional FtsA or ZipA.
 
 
 0.678
lpp
Major outer membrane lipoprotein; A highly abundant outer membrane lipoprotein that controls the distance between the inner and outer membranes. The only protein known to be covalently linked to the peptidoglycan network (PGN). Also non-covalently binds the PGN. The link between the cell outer membrane and PGN contributes to maintenance of the structural and functional integrity of the cell envelope, and maintains the correct distance between the PGN and the outer membrane.

ECA0460
Similar to Yersinia pestis hypothetical protein ypo0911 SWALL:Y911_YERPE (SWALL:Q8ZHI2) (192 aa) fasta scores: E(): 1.2e-49, 70.76% id in 195 aa, and to Escherichia coli, Escherichia coli O6, Escherichia coli O157:H7, and Shigella flexneri hypothetical protein YgfB SWALL:YGFB_ECOLI (SWALL:P25533) (192 aa) fasta scores: E(): 4.4e-49, 70.25% id in 195 aa; Belongs to the UPF0149 family.
  
  
 0.663
cvpA
Similar to Escherichia coli colicin V production protein CvpA or DedE or b2313 SWALL:CVPA_ECOLI (SWALL:P08550) (162 aa) fasta scores: E(): 7.5e-53, 81.98% id in 161 aa.
 
  
 0.645
ihfA
Integration host factor alpha-subunit; This protein is one of the two subunits of integration host factor, a specific DNA-binding protein that functions in genetic recombination as well as in transcriptional and translational control. Belongs to the bacterial histone-like protein family.
  
    0.635
smpA
Putative outer membrane lipopotein (small protein A); Part of the outer membrane protein assembly complex, which is involved in assembly and insertion of beta-barrel proteins into the outer membrane.
 
    0.619
ftsZ
Cell division protein; 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.
   
 
 0.602
lolB
Outer-membrane lipoprotein; Plays a critical role in the incorporation of lipoproteins in the outer membrane after they are released by the LolA protein.
  
     0.601
hemD
uroporphyrinogen-III synthase; Catalyzes cyclization of the linear tetrapyrrole, hydroxymethylbilane, to the macrocyclic uroporphyrinogen III.
