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

yflPConserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; Belongs to the UPF0065 (bug) family. (319 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
citS
Two-component sensor histidine kinase; Member of the two-component regulatory system CitT/CitS. Regulates the expression of the citM-yflN operon. Functions probably as a membrane-associated protein kinase that phosphorylates CitT in response to environmental citrate or Mg(2+)-citrate complex.
 
    0.977
citT
Two-component response regulator; Member of the two-component regulatory system CitT/CitS. Regulates the expression of the citM-yflN operon. Phosphorylated CitT binds to the citM promoter to activate the transcription of the citM- yflN operon.
 
    0.968
yufL
Two-component sensor histidine kinase [YufM]; Member of a two-component regulatory system MalK/MalR. Involved in the activation of maeA, maeN and yflS in presence of malate. Probably activates MalR by phosphorylation.
 
    0.704
yufM
Two-component response regulator [YufL]; Member of a two-component regulatory system MalK/MalR. Activates transcription of maeA, maeN and yflS in presence of malate by binding to their promoter region.
 
    0.688
dctR
Two-component response regulator; Member of the two-component regulatory system DctS/DctR. Essential for expression of dctP.
 
    0.646
dctS
Two-component sensor histidine kinase; Member of the two-component regulatory system DctS/DctR. Probably activates DctR by phosphorylation (By similarity). Essential for expression of dctP.
 
    0.604
yhjN
Putative integral inner membrane protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pm: putative membrane component.
 
    0.559
kipR
Transcriptional regulator (IclR family); Transcriptional repressor of the kip gene-containing operon.
 
  
 0.530
yflS
2-oxoglutarate/malate transporter; Might be a malate transporter.
     
 0.511
dctB
C4-dicarboxylate binding protein; Part of the binding-protein-dependent transport system for uptake of C4-dicarboxylates. Responsible for growth on fumarate and succinate but not malate. Is not directly involved in C4-dicarboxylate uptake, but plays a sensory role in the DctS/DctR two-component system which regulates the expression of the dctA C4-dicarboxylate transporter; Belongs to the bacterial solute-binding protein 7 family.
