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

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.
  
  
 0.934
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.
  
  
 0.837
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.
  
 0.811
ydcC
Putative lipoprotein; required for efficient sporulation.
  
 
 0.794
sleB
Spore cortex-lytic enzyme; Could be a lytic transglycosylase. Required for spore cortex hydrolysis during germination. Interacts strongly but noncovalently with spore components.
   
  
 0.784
yabP
Spore protein involved in the shaping of the spore coat; Required for sporulation.
  
  
 0.714
cwlC
N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase; Autolysins are involved in some important biological processes such as cell separation, cell-wall turnover, competence for genetic transformation, formation of the flagella - in particular of its basal body - and sporulation. CwlC is able to hydrolyze type A cell walls such as B.subtilis. Its main function is to lyze the mother cell wall peptidoglycan, playing a role during sporulation. Belongs to the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase 3 family.
 
 
0.647
spoVE
Factor for spore cortex peptidoglycan synthesis (stage V sporulation); May play an essential role not only during sporulation, but also during vegetative growth; Belongs to the SEDS family. SpoVE subfamily.
 
  
 0.631
yqfD
Stage IV sporulation protein; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type cp: cell process.
  
  
 0.630
spoVD
Penicillin-binding protein; Penicillin-binding protein with an unknown catalytic activity. May have a specialized role in the morphogenesis of spore cortex, which is a modified form of peptidoglycan. Pore cortex formation is determined primarily by the mother cell.
