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.

defAPeptide deformylase; Removes the formyl group from the N-terminal Met of newly synthesized proteins. Requires at least a dipeptide for an efficient rate of reaction. N-terminal L-methionine is a prerequisite for activity but the enzyme has broad specificity at other positions (By similarity). (160 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fmt
methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase; Attaches a formyl group to the free amino group of methionyl- tRNA(fMet). The formyl group appears to play a dual role in the initiator identity of N-formylmethionyl-tRNA by promoting its recognition by IF2 and preventing the misappropriation of this tRNA by the elongation apparatus; Belongs to the Fmt family.

rsmB
RNA-binding Sun protein; Specifically methylates the cytosine at position 967 (m5C967) of 16S rRNA.
  
  
 0.919
rlmN
23S rRNA m2A2503 methyltransferase; Specifically methylates position 2 of adenine 2503 in 23S rRNA and position 2 of adenine 37 in tRNAs; Belongs to the radical SAM superfamily. RlmN family.
 
  
 0.901
tig
Prolyl isomerase (trigger factor); Involved in protein export. Acts as a chaperone by maintaining the newly synthesized protein in an open conformation. Functions as a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (By similarity). Belongs to the FKBP-type PPIase family. Tig subfamily.

prpC
Phosphorylated protein phosphatase; Protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates PrkC and EF-G (elongation factor G, fusA). prpC and prkC are cotranscribed, which suggests that they form a functional couple in vivo, PrpC's primary role being possibly to counter the action of PrkC. May be involved in sporulation and biofilm formation. Does not seem to be involved in stress response. Dephosphorylates phosphorylated CgsA, EF-Tu and YezB.
  
  
 0.866
prkC
Protein kinase; Protein kinase that is responsible for triggering spore germination in response to muropeptides, signaling bacteria to exit dormancy. PrkC is thus a germination receptor that binds peptidoglycan fragments containing m-Dpm (meso-diaminopimelate), which act as spore germinants. Autophosphorylates and phosphorylates EF-G (elongation factor G, fusA); the latter modification is likely necessary for germination in response to peptidoglycan. Another group did not detect phosphorylation of EF-G. PrkC is a substrate in vitro of the cotranscribed phosphatase PrpC, which suggests [...]

rpe
Ribulose-5-phosphate 3-epimerase; Catalyzes the reversible epimerization of D-ribulose 5- phosphate to D-xylulose 5-phosphate; Belongs to the ribulose-phosphate 3-epimerase family.
 
  
 0.849
cpgA
GTPase involved in ribosome and sacculus morphogenesis; One of several proteins that assist in the late maturation steps of the functional core of the 30S ribosomal subunit. Helps release RbfA from mature subunits. May play a role in the assembly of ribosomal proteins into the subunit. Circularly permuted GTPase with a low level of activity and slow catalytic turnover, does not act on ATP. GTPase activity is stimulated by the presence of 30S or 70S ribosomes, phosphorylation increases stimulation. Depletion results in increased sensitivity to protein synthesis inhibitors that block the [...]

rplU
Ribosomal protein L21 (BL20); This protein binds to 23S rRNA in the presence of protein L20; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL21 family.
 
 
 0.831
mapA
Methionine aminopeptidase; Removes the N-terminal methionine from nascent proteins. The N-terminal methionine is often cleaved when the second residue in the primary sequence is small and uncharged (Met-Ala-, Cys, Gly, Pro, Ser, Thr, or Val). Requires deformylation of the N(alpha)-formylated initiator methionine before it can be hydrolyzed.
