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

ykoVATP-dependent DNA ligase subunit; With LigD forms a non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) DNA repair enzyme, which repairs dsDNA breaks with reduced fidelity. Binds linear dsDNA with 5'- and 3'- overhangs but not closed circular dsDNA nor ssDNA. Recruits and stimulates the ligase activity of LigD (By similarity). Probably involved in DNA repair during spore germination. Belongs to the prokaryotic Ku family. (311 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ykoU
ATP-dependent DNA ligase subunit; With Ku forms a non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) DNA repair enzyme, which repairs dsDNA breaks with reduced fidelity (Probable). Probably involved in DNA repair during spore germination. In the N-terminal section; belongs to the LigD polymerase family.

ligB
Bacteriophage SPbeta DNA ligase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type h: extrachromosomal origin; Belongs to the ATP-dependent DNA ligase family.
 
   
 0.958
ykoW
Putative sensor diguanylate cyclase; Probable signaling protein whose physiological role is not yet known.
  
  
 0.812
ybfP
Putative transcriptional regulator (AraC/XylS family); Probable transcriptional regulator.
      
 0.751
yocA
Putative transposon-related lytic enzyme; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type h: extrachromosomal origin.
      
 0.750
recA
Multifunctional SOS repair factor; Multifunctional protein involved in homologous recombination, DNA repair and competence. Can catalyze the hydrolysis of (d)ATP in the presence of single-stranded DNA; prefers dATP at least in vitro, catalyzes the dATP-dependent uptake of single- stranded DNA by duplex DNA, and the dATP-dependent hybridization of homologous single-stranded DNAs (strand exchange). RecA-ATP cannot catalyze homologous DNA strand exchange; SsbA and DprA activate strand exchange by RecA-ATP. It interacts with LexA causing its activation and leading to its autocatalytic clea [...]

sdpB
Exporter of killing factor SpbC; Required for the maturation of SdpC to SDP. Not required for SdpC signal peptide cleavage, secretion from the cell or disulfide bond formation.
      
 0.489
ligA
DNA ligase; DNA ligase that catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester linkages between 5'-phosphoryl and 3'-hydroxyl groups in double- stranded DNA using NAD as a coenzyme and as the energy source for the reaction. It is essential for DNA replication and repair of damaged DNA.
      
 0.451
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.
       0.443
recQ
ATP-dependent DNA helicase; Probable DNA helicase. Required in synaptic and/or post- synaptic stages of recombination. Probably has overlapping function with RecQ (AC O34748). It probably acts to help generate ss-DNA from ds-DNA breaks.
