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

thiIThiamine biosynthesis protein ThiI, ATP pyrophosphatase; Catalyzes the ATP-dependent transfer of a sulfur to tRNA to produce 4-thiouridine in position 8 of tRNAs, which functions as a near-UV photosensor. Also catalyzes the transfer of sulfur to the sulfur carrier protein ThiS, forming ThiS-thiocarboxylate. This is a step in the synthesis of thiazole, in the thiamine biosynthesis pathway. The sulfur is donated as persulfide by IscS. (405 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
csd2
Cysteine desulfurase.
 
 0.998
iscS
Cysteine desulfurase.
 
 0.963
trmU
tRNA (5-methylaminomethyl-2-thiouridylate)-methyltransferase; Catalyzes the 2-thiolation of uridine at the wobble position (U34) of tRNA, leading to the formation of s(2)U34.
 
  
 0.924
sunL
16S rRNA m(5)C 967 methyltransferase; Specifically methylates the cytosine at position 967 (m5C967) of 16S rRNA.

larE
Lactate racemization operon protein LarE; Involved in the biosynthesis of a nickel-pincer cofactor ((SCS)Ni(II) pincer complex). Catalyzes the ATP-dependent incorporation of two sulfur atoms in pyridinium-3,5-biscarboxylic acid mononucleotide (P2CMN) to yield pyridinium-3,5-bisthiocarboxylic acid mononucleotide (P2TMN). The source of sulfur is the enzyme itself: Cys-176 of LarE is the sulfur donor, thereby being converted into dehydroalanine, and is not regenerated in vivo. Thus, two molecules of LarE undergo sacrificial sulfur transfer to create one P2TMN. Binds nickel. Is required fo [...]

larA
Lactate racemization operon protein LarA; Catalyzes the interconversion between the D- and L-isomers of lactate. May act as a rescue enzyme to ensure D-lactate production in physiological conditions where its production by the D-lactate dehydrogenase LdhD is not sufficient. D-Lactate is absolutely required for growth of L.plantarum and is an essential component of the cell wall peptidoglycan in this species, where it is incorporated as the last residue of the muramoyl-pentadepsipeptide peptidoglycan precursor; its incorporation confers high level of vancomycin resistance.

lp_1724
23S rRNA methylase.

ezrA
Septation ring formation regulator; Negative regulator of FtsZ ring formation; modulates the frequency and position of FtsZ ring formation. Inhibits FtsZ ring formation at polar sites. Interacts either with FtsZ or with one of its binding partners to promote depolymerization; Belongs to the EzrA family.
  
    0.634
queA
S-adenosylmethionine tRNA ribosyltransferase-isomerase; Transfers and isomerizes the ribose moiety from AdoMet to the 7-aminomethyl group of 7-deazaguanine (preQ1-tRNA) to give epoxyqueuosine (oQ-tRNA).
  
  
 0.621
valS
valine-tRNA synthetase; Catalyzes the attachment of valine to tRNA(Val). As ValRS can inadvertently accommodate and process structurally similar amino acids such as threonine, to avoid such errors, it has a 'posttransfer' editing activity that hydrolyzes mischarged Thr-tRNA(Val) in a tRNA- dependent manner; Belongs to the class-I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase family. ValS type 1 subfamily.
