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.

ctcRibosomal protein Ctc, binding 5S RNA; Not required for exponential growth; probably functions in vegetatively growing cells, maybe required for accurate translation under stress conditions. (204 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpsI
Ribosomal protein S9; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type s: structure.
   
 
 0.994
rplU
Ribosomal protein L21 (BL20); This protein binds to 23S rRNA in the presence of protein L20; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL21 family.
  
 
 0.994
rpsF
Ribosomal protein S6 (BS9); Binds together with S18 to 16S ribosomal RNA.
  
 
 0.994
rplS
Ribosomal protein L19; This protein is located at the 30S-50S ribosomal subunit interface and may play a role in the structure and function of the aminoacyl-tRNA binding site; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL19 family.
  
 
 0.993
rpsR
Ribosomal protein S18; Binds as a heterodimer with protein S6 to the central domain of the 16S rRNA, where it helps stabilize the platform of the 30S subunit.
  
 
 0.993
rplQ
Ribosomal protein L17 (BL15); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type s: structure.
   
 
 0.992
rpsO
Ribosomal protein S15 (BS18); One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it helps nucleate assembly of the platform of the 30S subunit by binding and bridging several RNA helices of the 16S rRNA.
 
 
 0.992
rpsD
Ribosomal protein S4 (BS4); One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the body of the 30S subunit. S4 represses its own expression; it is not know if this is at the level of translation or of mRNA stability; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS4 family.
   
 
 0.992
rplE
Ribosomal protein L5 (BL6); This is 1 of the proteins that binds and probably mediates the attachment of the 5S RNA into the large ribosomal subunit, where it forms part of the central protuberance. In the 70S ribosome it contacts protein S13 of the 30S subunit (bridge B1b), connecting the 2 subunits; this bridge is implicated in subunit movement. Contacts the P site tRNA; the 5S rRNA and some of its associated proteins might help stabilize positioning of ribosome-bound tRNAs.
   
 
 0.991
rpsP
Ribosomal protein S16 (BS17); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type f: factor.
  
 
 0.991
