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

sspESmall 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. (84 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sspA
Small acid-soluble spore protein (alpha-type SASP); SASP are bound to spore DNA. They are double-stranded DNA- binding proteins that cause DNA to change to an a-like conformation. They protect the DNA backbone from chemical and enzymatic cleavage and are thus involved in dormant spore's high resistance to UV light.
   
  
 0.977
sspB
Small acid-soluble spore protein (beta-type SASP); SASP are bound to spore DNA. They are double-stranded DNA- binding proteins that cause DNA to change to an a-like conformation. They protect the DNA backbone from chemical and enzymatic cleavage and are thus involved in dormant spore's high resistance to UV light.

yfhS
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 10463184.
  
  
 0.915
sspD
Small acid-soluble spore protein (alpha/beta-type SASP); SASP are bound to spore DNA. They are double-stranded DNA- binding proteins that cause DNA to change to an a-like conformation. They protect the DNA backbone from chemical and enzymatic cleavage and are thus involved in dormant spore's high resistance to UV light.
   
  
 0.860
fabL
Enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase III; Catalyzes the reduction of a carbon-carbon double bond in an enoyl moiety that is covalently linked to an acyl carrier protein (ACP). It confers resistance to triclosan. Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
  
  
 0.831
sspC
Small acid-soluble spore protein (alpha/beta-type SASP); SASP are bound to spore DNA. They are double-stranded DNA- binding proteins that cause DNA to change to an a-like conformation. They protect the DNA backbone from chemical and enzymatic cleavage and are thus involved in dormant spore's high resistance to UV light.
   
  
 0.756
sspF
Small acid-soluble spore protein (alpha/beta-type SASP); May play some important role in either sporulation or the dormant spore.
   
  
 0.733
sspN
Small acid-soluble spore protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type f: factor; Belongs to the SspN family.
   
  
 0.700
sspH
Small acid-soluble spore protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process; Belongs to the SspH family.
   
  
 0.694
ymfJ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
