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

ylqDConserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function. (128 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rimM
16S rRNA processing protein; An accessory protein needed during the final step in the assembly of 30S ribosomal subunit, possibly for assembly of the head region. Probably interacts with S19. Essential for efficient processing of 16S rRNA. May be needed both before and after RbfA during the maturation of 16S rRNA. It has affinity for free ribosomal 30S subunits but not for 70S ribosomes; Belongs to the RimM family.
  
  
 0.949
trmD
tRNA(m1G37)methyltransferase; Specifically methylates guanosine-37 in various tRNAs. Belongs to the RNA methyltransferase TrmD family.
  
  
 0.937
ylqC
Putative RNA binding protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pf: putative factor; Belongs to the UPF0109 family.
  
  
 0.869
hepS
Heptaprenyl diphosphate synthase component I; Supplies heptaprenyl diphosphate, the precursor for the side chain of the isoprenoid quinone menaquinone-7 (MQ-7).
  
    0.824
ylxM
Conserved hypothetical protein; Might take part in the signal recognition particle (SRP) pathway. This is inferred from the conservation of its genetic proximity to ftsY/ffh. May be a regulatory protein.
  
  
 0.738
rpsP
Ribosomal protein S16 (BS17); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type f: factor.
  
  
 0.709
yqgB
Factor involved in motility; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type ph: phenotype.
  
     0.695
walH
Regulator of YycFG; Together with YycI, regulates the activity of the two- component system WalR/WalK.
  
    0.667
yaaC
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
     0.656
ftsL
Cell-division protein; Essential cell division protein that may play a structural role. Probably involved in the regulation of the timing of cell division. Also required for sporulation.
  
    0.655
