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.

Score
yaaKDNA binding protein; Binds to DNA and alters its conformation. May be involved in regulation of gene expression, nucleoid organization and DNA protection. (107 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
recR
DNA repair and recombination protein; 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.
 
  
 0.998
dnaX
DNA polymerase III (gamma and tau subunits); DNA polymerase III is a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria.
  
  
 0.926
yaaL
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
    0.832
tmk
Thymidylate kinase; Phosphorylation of dTMP to form dTDP in both de novo and salvage pathways of dTTP synthesis; Belongs to the thymidylate kinase family.
 
    0.808
yaaT
Conserved hypothetical protein; Essential for the phosphorelay during initiation of sporulation. May control the level of phosphorylated spo0A through spo0E activity during sporulation.
 
    0.782
bofA
Inhibitor of the pro-sigma(K) processing machinery; Involved in the mediation of the intercompartmental coupling of pro-sigma K processing to events in the forespore. Inhibits SpoIVFB- processing activity until a signal has been received from the forespore. Could inhibit SpoIVFB metalloprotease activity by coordinating a zinc in the SpoIVFB active site, preventing access of a water molecule and the sequence of pro-sigma K, which are necessary for peptide bond hydrolysis to produce sigma-K.
  
    0.702
holB
DNA polymerase III delta' subunit; DNA polymerase III is a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria.
 
    0.698
rsmI
Ribosomal RNA small subunit methyltransferase I; Catalyzes the 2'-O-methylation of the ribose of cytidine 1402 (C1402) in 16S rRNA.
 
  
 0.613
prsA
Molecular chaperone lipoprotein; Essential protein that plays a major role in protein secretion by helping the post-translocational extracellular folding of several secreted proteins. Has PPIase activity but it is not essential for its function in vivo; Belongs to the PrsA family.
  
    0.602
cinA
Competence-damage inducible regulator; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; regulator; Belongs to the CinA family.
  
    0.586
