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

ybxBRibosomal RNA methyltransferase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. (201 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rplL
Ribosomal protein L12 (BL9); Forms part of the ribosomal stalk which helps the ribosome interact with GTP-bound translation factors. Is thus essential for accurate translation.
  
  
 0.881
rplJ
Ribosomal protein L10 (BL5); Forms part of the ribosomal stalk, playing a central role in the interaction of the ribosome with GTP-bound translation factors (such as IF-2, EF-Tu, EF-G and RF3).
  
  
 0.828
rplA
Ribosomal protein L1 (BL1); Binds directly to 23S rRNA. The L1 stalk is quite mobile in the ribosome, and is involved in E site tRNA release. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL1 family.
  
  
 0.794
rpoB
RNA polymerase (beta subunit); DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
  
  
 0.777
rpoC
RNA polymerase (beta' subunit); DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
  
  
 0.776
rplGB
Alternative ribosomal protein L7A; RNA-binding protein that recognizes the K-turn motif present in ribosomal RNA, but also in box C/D and box C'/D' sRNAs. Belongs to the eukaryotic ribosomal protein eL8 family.
  
  
 0.767
rsmE
Methylase of U1498 in 16S rRNA; Specifically methylates the N3 position of the uracil ring of uridine 1498 (m3U1498) in 16S rRNA. Acts on the fully assembled 30S ribosomal subunit (By similarity).
  
  
 0.749
rpsG
Ribosomal protein S7 (BS7); One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the head domain of the 30S subunit. Is located at the subunit interface close to the decoding center, probably blocks exit of the E-site tRNA; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS7 family.
  
  
 0.725
spo0B
Sporulation initiation phosphotransferase; Key element in the phosphorelay regulating sporulation initiation. Acts on spo0A. Mediates reversible phosphoryl transfer from spo0F to spo0A.
   
    0.710
rplK
Ribosomal protein L11 (BL11); Forms part of the ribosomal stalk which helps the ribosome interact with GTP-bound translation factors; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL11 family.
