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

sspHSmall acid-soluble spore protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process; Belongs to the SspH family. (59 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
acoR
Transcriptional regulator; Acts as a transcriptional activator of the acoABCL operon encoding the acetoin dehydrogenase complex.
  
    0.845
sspF
Small acid-soluble spore protein (alpha/beta-type SASP); May play some important role in either sporulation or the dormant spore.
   
  
 0.841
sspL
Small acid-soluble spore protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process.
   
  
 0.830
sspG
Small acid-soluble spore protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type f: factor.
      
 0.756
sspE
Small acid-soluble spore protein (gamma-type SASP); SASP are proteins degraded in the first minutes of spore germination and provide amino acids for both new protein synthesis and metabolism. These proteins may be involved in dormant spore's high resistance to UV light.
   
  
 0.694
sspP
Small acid-soluble spore protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type f: factor; Belongs to the SspP family.
   
  
 0.689
tlp
Small acid-soluble spore protein (thioredoxin-like protein); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type f: factor; Belongs to the Tlp family.
  
  
 0.669
yugN
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
    0.632
yndM
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.
  
     0.605
yvdQ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
