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

infBProtein chain initiation factor 2; One of the essential components for the initiation of protein synthesis. Protects formylmethionyl-tRNA from spontaneous hydrolysis and promotes its binding to the 30S ribosomal subunits. Also involved in the hydrolysis of GTP during the formation of the 70S ribosomal complex. (893 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fusA
Elongation factor G.
  
 
 0.991
rpoB
DNA-directed RNA polymerase, beta-subunit; Belongs to the RNA polymerase beta chain family.
 
 
 0.991
rpsB
30S ribosomal protein S2; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS2 family.
 
 0.989
rplB
50S ribosomal subunit protein L2; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins. Required for association of the 30S and 50S subunits to form the 70S ribosome, for tRNA binding and peptide bond formation. It has been suggested to have peptidyltransferase activity; this is somewhat controversial. Makes several contacts with the 16S rRNA in the 70S ribosome. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL2 family.
  
 0.986
rpsD
30S ribosomal subunit protein S4; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the body of the 30S subunit.
 
 
 0.984
rpsC
30S ribosomal subunit protein S3; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS3 family.
  
 
 0.984
nusA
L factor; Participates in both transcription termination and antitermination.
  
 0.982
rpsE
30S ribosomal subunit protein S5.
  
 0.982
rplO
50S ribosomal subunit protein L15.
   
 0.981
rplP
50S ribosomal subunit protein L16; Binds 23S rRNA and is also seen to make contacts with the A and possibly P site tRNAs; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL16 family.
