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

bstBacillithiol S-transferase; Possible metal-dependent hydrolase; Belongs to the metal hydrolase YfiT family. (178 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dinB
Nuclease inhibitor; Evidence 2b: Function of strongly homologous gene; regulator.
  
  
 0.935
yfiS
Putative efflux transporter; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter.
  
  
 0.927
yizA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; Belongs to the DinB family.
      
 0.912
fosB
Metallothiol transferase; Metallothiol transferase which confers resistance to fosfomycin by catalyzing the addition of a thiol cofactor to fosfomycin. L-cysteine is probably the physiological thiol donor.
      
 0.911
bshC
Malate glucosamine cysteine ligase; Involved in bacillithiol (BSH) biosynthesis. May catalyze the last step of the pathway, the addition of cysteine to glucosamine malate (GlcN-Mal) to generate BSH.
  
  
 0.909
ykkA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
   
  
 0.889
yjoA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
   
  
 0.888
yqiW
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; Belongs to the UPF0403 family.
  
   
 0.866
bshA
Malate glycosyltransferase for bacillithiol synthesis; Involved in bacillithiol (BSH) biosynthesis. Catalyzes the first step of the pathway, the formation of N-acetylglucosaminylmalate (GlcNAc-Mal) from UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) and L-malate. Belongs to the glycosyltransferase group 1 family. Glycosyltransferase 4 subfamily.
  
   
 0.856
yfiU
Putative efflux transporter; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter.
