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.

Score
zinTZinc metallochaperone with NTPase activity; May bind GTP. Might act as metal chaperone (Potential). Contributes to optimal growth under starvation for zinc. (397 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
folEB
GTP cyclohydrolase I; Converts GTP to 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate. Belongs to the GTP cyclohydrolase IV family.
  
  
 0.991
znuA
Zn(II)-binding lipoprotein; Part of the high-affinity ABC transporter complex ZnuABC involved in zinc import (Probable). ZnuABC-mediated zinc transport is required for comF expression and competence development.
  
  
 0.983
rpsNB
Alternative ribosomal protein S14; Binds 16S rRNA, required for the assembly of 30S particles and may also be responsible for determining the conformation of the 16S rRNA at the A site; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS14 family.
  
 
 0.966
yrpE
Putative lipoprotein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type lp: lipoprotein; Belongs to the calycin superfamily. ZinT family.
  
  
 0.964
yciB
Putative metal uptake system lipoprotein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter.
  
  
 0.961
yczL
Hypothetical protein; Evidence 5: No homology to any previously reported sequences.
  
  
 0.961
znuB
High affinity Zn(II) ABC transporter (permease); Part of the high-affinity ABC transporter complex ZnuABC involved in zinc import (Probable). Responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane (By similarity). ZnuABC-mediated zinc transport is required for comF expression and competence development.
  
  
 0.935
yjiA
Hypothetical protein; Evidence 5: No homology to any previously reported sequences.
      
 0.907
rpmEB
Ribosomal protein L31; While neither of the L31 paralogs is essential, this protein does not seem to function as the main L31 protein. Has a higher affinity for 70S ribosomes than the zinc-containing L31 paralog; is able to displace it to varying extents, even under zinc-replete conditions.
  
  
 0.837
rpmGA
Ribosomal protein L33; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; structure.
  
  
 0.824
