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

yabSConserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function. (245 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yabT
Putative serine/threonine-protein kinase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme.
 
  
 0.992
spoIIE
SpoIIAA-phosphate serine phosphatase; Normally needed for pro-sigma E processing during sporulation but can be bypassed in vegetative cells. Activates SpoIIAA by dephosphorylation.
 
  
 0.977
yrbC
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
      
 0.919
ypiF
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
      
 0.901
ygaN
Putative sulfur-related oxidoreductase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative enzyme.
      
 0.889
spoVID
Morphogenetic spore protein (stage VI sporulation); Required for assembly of a normal spore coat. May be a component of the innermost layer of the spore coat that aids in its adherence to the prespore.
  
    0.874
spoIVFA
Regulator of SpoIVFB (stage IV sporulation); Implicated in the coupling of mother cell to forespore gene expression. Required for spore formation at 37 degrees Celsius, but not at 30 degrees Celsius. SpoIVFA plays a central role in both maintaining the SpoIVFA/BofA/SpoIVFB complex and anchoring it to the outer forespore membrane. SpoIVFA brings BofA into close proximity to SpoIVFB, allowing BofA to inhibit SpoIVFB. Increased accumulation of SpoIVFA seems to inhibit the activity of SpoIVFB and thus regulates the activation of sigma-K.
  
    0.870
spoIIGA
Protease processing pro-sigma-E; Probable aspartic protease that is responsible for the proteolytic cleavage of the RNA polymerase sigma E factor (SigE/spoIIGB) to yield the active peptide in the mother cell during sporulation. Responds to a signal from the forespore that is triggered by the extracellular signal protein SpoIIR. Belongs to the peptidase U4 family.
  
    0.841
gerM
Germination (cortex hydrolysis) and sporulation (stage II, multiple polar septa) lytic enzyme; Unknown. Affects both sporulation and germination.
  
    0.808
yabQ
Membrane protein of the forespore; Required for sporulation. Plays an important role in cortex and coat formation.
