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

ydhDSpore cortex lytic enzyme; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type cp: cell process; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 18 family. Chitinase class II subfamily. (420 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ydaM
Putative glycosyltransferase associated to biofilm formation; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme.

pdaC
N-acetylmuramic acid deacetylase; Catalyzes the deacetylation of N-acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc) residues in peptidoglycan, a modification that confers resistance to lysosyme. Is not able to deacetylate N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residues in peptidoglycan, but can deacylate chitin oligomers such as GlcNAc4 and GlcNAc5. Is essentially not active toward chitosan (partially deacetylated GlcNAc polymer) and has very low activity toward chitin (GlcNAc polymer). Does not deacetylate GlcNAc. In the N-terminal section; belongs to the RsiV family.

ykvT
Cell wall hydrolase related to spore cortex-lytic enzymes; Evidence 2b: Function of strongly homologous gene; enzyme.
  
   
 0.787
ykvP
Spore protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type f: factor.
      
 0.752
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.
 
 
  
 0.743
ypeB
Spore membrane component; Required for spore cortex hydrolysis during germination. Appears to be required for either expression, localization, activation or function of SleB.
  
  
 0.629
yhbB
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
   
  
 0.595
sleB
Spore cortex-lytic enzyme; Could be a lytic transglycosylase. Required for spore cortex hydrolysis during germination. Interacts strongly but noncovalently with spore components.
  
  
 0.590
gerT
Component of the spore coat; Involved in spore germination; probably required at the earliest stage of germination.
   
  
 0.578
cotJA
Component of the inner spore coat; The cotJ operon proteins affect spore coat composition. They are either required for the normal formation of the inner layers of the coat or are themselves structural components of the coat.
