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.

sigM
RNA polymerase ECF (extracytoplasmic function)-type sigma factor (sigma(M)); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factors are held in an inactive form by a cognate anti-sigma factor (YhdL) until released. This sigma factor is involved in the maintenance of membrane and cell wall integrity in response to environmental stresses including salt, acid, ethanol and antibiotics stress. Partially regulates transcription from a number of genes including disA.

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.
   
 
 0.740
bcrC
Undecaprenyl pyrophosphate phosphatase; Catalyzes the dephosphorylation of undecaprenyl diphosphate (UPP). Confers resistance to bacitracin; Belongs to the BcrC/YbjG family.
   
  
 0.731
ykoX
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.
   
  
 0.718
yqjL
Putative hydrolase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative enzyme.
   
  
 0.619
yacL
Putative membrane protein; An RNase; In the central section; belongs to the PINc/VapC protein family.
   
  
 0.532
divIB
Cell-division initiation protein; Cell division protein that may be involved in stabilizing or promoting the assembly of the division complex. Plays an essential role in division at high temperatures, maybe by protecting FtsL from degradation or by promoting formation of the FtsL-DivIC complex. May modulate the transpeptidase activity of PBP-2B. Also required for efficient sporulation at all temperatures. Could be directly involved in the engulfment process or be required to form a sporulation septum competent for engulfment. Influences the Spo0J/Soj system of chromosome segregation. B [...]
