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

rtpAanti-TRAP regulator; By forming a complex with tryptophan-activated TRAP, and masking its RNA binding site, it inhibits TRAP's RNA binding ability, thereby abolishing TRAP regulation of gene expression, leading to antitermination and increased trp operon expression. AT acts by competing with messenger RNA for the RNA binding domain of TRAP. (53 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
mtrB
Tryptophan operon RNA-binding attenuation protein (TRAP); Required for transcription attenuation control in the trp operon. This trans-acting factor binds to trinucleotide repeats (GAG or UAG) located in the trp leader transcript causing transcription termination. Binds the leader RNA only in presence of L-tryptophan. Belongs to the MtrB family.

dnaK
Molecular chaperone; Acts as a chaperone; Belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family.
  
 0.976
ycbK
Putative efflux transporter; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative transporter.
  
  
 0.972
pksJ
Polyketide synthase of type I; Involved in some intermediate steps for the synthesis of the antibiotic polyketide bacillaene which is involved in secondary metabolism.
  
 
 0.957
htpG
Class III heat-shock protein (molecular chaperone); Molecular chaperone. Has ATPase activity.
  
 0.956
grpE
Nucleotide exchange factor for DnaK activity; Participates actively in the response to hyperosmotic and heat shock by preventing the aggregation of stress-denatured proteins, in association with DnaK and GrpE. It is the nucleotide exchange factor for DnaK and may function as a thermosensor. Unfolded proteins bind initially to DnaJ; upon interaction with the DnaJ-bound protein, DnaK hydrolyzes its bound ATP, resulting in the formation of a stable complex. GrpE releases ADP from DnaK; ATP binding to DnaK triggers the release of the substrate protein, thus completing the reaction cycle. S [...]

groEL
Chaperonin large subunit; Prevents misfolding and promotes the refolding and proper assembly of unfolded polypeptides generated under stress conditions.
  
 0.807
ppiB
Peptidyl-prolyl isomerase; PPIases accelerate the folding of proteins. It catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of proline imidic peptide bonds in oligopeptides; Belongs to the cyclophilin-type PPIase family.
  
 
 0.785
mnmE
tRNA modification GTPase and tRNA-U34 5-formylation enzyme; Exhibits a very high intrinsic GTPase hydrolysis rate. Involved in the addition of a carboxymethylaminomethyl (cmnm) group at the wobble position (U34) of certain tRNAs, forming tRNA- cmnm(5)s(2)U34.
  
 
 0.783
pksN
Polyketide synthase of type I; Involved in some intermediate steps for the synthesis of the antibiotic polyketide bacillaene which is involved in secondary metabolism.
