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.

cwlDN-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase; Cleaves the peptide side chain from the N-acetylmuramic acid residues in peptidoglycan. This is a step in the formation of muramic delta-lactam residues in spore cortex. (237 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pdaA
Exported N-acetylmuramic acid deacetylase; Catalyzes the deacetylation of N-acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc) residues in glycan strands of peptidoglycan, leading to the formation of muramic delta-lactam residues in spore cortex, after transpeptidation of deacetylated muramic acid residues. PdaA probably carries out both deacetylation and lactam ring formation and requires the product of CwlD activity on peptidoglycan as a substrate. Is required for germination. Cannot use chitin oligomer (hexa-N- acetylchitohexaose) as a substrate; Belongs to the polysaccharide deacetylase family.
  
  
 0.978
ydcC
Putative lipoprotein; required for efficient sporulation.
  
 
 0.862
spoIID
Autolysin required for complete dissolution of the asymmetric septum (stage II sporulation); May act at the level of sigma-G activity or its stability. SpoIID is probably required for engulfment.
  
 0.852
ybaK
Putative alkylated deoxynucleotide triphosphohydrolase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme.
  
  
 0.844
sleB
Spore cortex-lytic enzyme; Could be a lytic transglycosylase. Required for spore cortex hydrolysis during germination. Interacts strongly but noncovalently with spore components.
   
  
 0.810
yabP
Spore protein involved in the shaping of the spore coat; Required for sporulation.
  
  
 0.784
yqfD
Stage IV sporulation protein; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type cp: cell process.
  
  
 0.733
salA
Mrp family regulator; Binds and transfers iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters to target apoproteins. Can hydrolyze ATP; Belongs to the Mrp/NBP35 ATP-binding proteins family.
       0.699
spoVB
Putative putative translocase with flippase function for teichoic acid synthesis; Involved, directly or indirectly, in spore cortex biosynthesis. Affects only indirectly the expression of late sporulation genes.
  
  
 0.698
spoIIQ
Forespore protein required for alternative engulfment; Involved in forespore engulfment and required for anchoring membrane proteins on the forespore side of the septal membrane. Forms a channel with SpoIIIAH that is open on the forespore end and closed (or gated) on the mother cell end. This allows sigma-E-directed gene expression in the mother-cell compartment of the sporangium to trigger the activation of sigma-G forespore-specific gene expression by a pathway of intercellular signaling.
