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

srtASortase A; Transpeptidase that anchors surface proteins to the cell wall. Recognizes and modifies its substrate by proteolytic cleavage of a C-terminal sorting signal. Following cleavage, a covalent intermediate is formed via a thioester bond between the sortase and its substrate, which is then transferred and covalently attached to the cell wall (Probable). This sortase recognizes a Leu-Pro-Asp-Thr-Ser/Ala (LPDTS/A) motif. It has two substrates, YhcR and YfkN. Belongs to the bacterial sortase family. Class D subfamily. (198 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yhcR
Non specific extracellular endonuclease cleaving RNA and DNA; Sugar-nonspecific endonuclease that yields nucleotide 3'- monophosphate products. No 5'-nucleotidase activity was detected, using 5'-AMP as the substrate, in the presence of diverse divalent metals and with various pH values.
  
  
 0.994
ywpE
Putative sortase; Seems not to play a major role if any as a sortase.
     
 0.928
secA
Translocase binding subunit (ATPase); Part of the Sec protein translocase complex. Interacts with the SecYEG preprotein conducting channel. Has a central role in coupling the hydrolysis of ATP to the transfer of proteins into and across the cell membrane, serving as an ATP-driven molecular motor driving the stepwise translocation of polypeptide chains across the membrane; Belongs to the SecA family.
      
 0.861
ybgA
Putative transcriptional regulator (GntR family); Transcriptional repressor of genes involved in glucosamine transport and utilization. Represses the expression of the gamAP operon by binding to the gamA-gamR intergenic region.
      
 0.786
lplA
Lipoprotein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type lp: lipoprotein.
      
 0.690
lytR
Membrane-bound transcriptional regulator; May catalyze the final step in cell wall teichoic acid biosynthesis, the transfer of the anionic cell wall polymers (APs) from their lipid-linked precursor to the cell wall peptidoglycan (PG).
  
   
 0.683
yhgD
Putative transcriptional regulator; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative regulator.
  
   
 0.644
birA
Biotin acetyl-CoA-carboxylase ligase and biotin regulon repressor; Acts both as a biotin--[acetyl-CoA-carboxylase] ligase and a repressor; Belongs to the biotin--protein ligase family.
      
 0.580
aprE
Serine alkaline protease (subtilisin E); Subtilisin is an extracellular alkaline serine protease, it catalyzes the hydrolysis of proteins and peptide amides; Belongs to the peptidase S8 family.
   
  
 0.552
yhcQ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
       0.551
