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

ykuKPutative RNAse; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative enzyme. (172 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yrrK
Putative Holliday junction resolvase; Could be a nuclease involved in processing of the 5'-end of pre-16S rRNA.
   
  
 0.901
ykuJ
Putative RNA-specific modification enzyme; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative enzyme.
  
    0.867
abbA
Regulator of AbrB repressor; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type r: regulator.
  
    0.589
yqhV
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
     0.494
ykuS
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; Belongs to the UPF0180 family.
 
    0.491
adaB
O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase; Involved in the cellular defense against the biological effects of O6-methylguanine (O6-MeG) and O4-methylthymine (O4-MeT) in DNA. Repairs the methylated nucleobase in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the methyl group to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. This is a suicide reaction: the enzyme is irreversibly inactivated.
   
  
 0.483
ylaJ
Putative lipoprotein; Probably contributes, directly or indirectly, to early events in germination.
  
     0.467
yoaR
Putative factor for cell wall maintenance or synthesis; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative factor.
