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

ftsK2Cell division protein FtsK; Essential cell division protein that coordinates cell division and chromosome segregation. The N-terminus is involved in assembly of the cell-division machinery. The C-terminus functions as a DNA motor that moves dsDNA in an ATP-dependent manner towards the dif recombination site, which is located within the replication terminus region. Required for activation of the Xer recombinase, allowing activation of chromosome unlinking by recombination (By similarity). Belongs to the FtsK/SpoIIIE/SftA family. (795 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
parB1
Chomosome partitioning protein, DNA-binding protein; Belongs to the ParB family.
  
   
 0.762
parB2
Chromosome partitioning protein, DNA-binding protein; Belongs to the ParB family.
  
   
 0.739
dnaA
Chromosomal replication initiation protein DnaA; Plays an important role in the initiation and regulation of chromosomal replication. Binds to the origin of replication; it binds specifically double-stranded DNA at a 9 bp consensus (dnaA box): 5'- TTATC[CA]A[CA]A-3'. DnaA binds to ATP and to acidic phospholipids.
  
  
 0.720
polA
DNA-directed DNA polymerase I; In addition to polymerase activity, this DNA polymerase exhibits 5'-3' exonuclease activity.
 
  
 0.674
ftsQ
Cell division initiation protein FtsQ; Cell division protein that may be involved in stabilizing or promoting the assembly of the division complex; Belongs to the FtsQ/DivIB family. DivIB subfamily.
  
 
 0.663
prfB-C
Peptide chain release factor 2, C-terminal fragment (natural frameshift); Peptide chain release factor 2 directs the termination of translation in response to the peptide chain termination codons UGA and UAA.
 
  
 0.643
padR
Transcriptional regulator of phenolic acid metabolism, PadR family.
      
 0.631
pbp2B
Transpeptidase, penicillin binding protein 2B.
 
 
 0.613
recR
Recombination protein RecR; May play a role in DNA repair. It seems to be involved in an RecBC-independent recombinational process of DNA repair. It may act with RecF and RecO.
 
  
 0.605
arsR
Regulator of arsenical resistance.
   
  
 0.595
