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

ypsAConserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; Belongs to the UPF0398 family. (180 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
gpsB
Cell division protein; Divisome component that associates with the complex late in its assembly, after the Z-ring is formed, and is dependent on DivIC and PBP2B for its recruitment to the divisome. Together with EzrA, is a key component of the system that regulates PBP1 localization during cell cycle progression. Its main role could be the removal of PBP1 from the cell pole after pole maturation is completed. Also contributes to the recruitment of PBP1 to the division complex. Not essential for septum formation; Belongs to the GpsB family.

yfhS
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 10463184.
      
 0.752
cotD
Spore coat protein (inner); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; cell process.
  
  
 0.705
dprA
DNA processing Smf single strand binding protein; Protein that helps load RecA onto ssDNA during transformation. Binds cooperatively to circular ssDNA, is able to bridge different segments of DNA. Favors the loading of RecA onto SsbA- or SsbB-coated ssDNA and formation of RecA-DNA filaments. RecA-ATP cannot catalyze homologous DNA strand exchange; SsbA and DprA activate strand exchange by RecA-ATP.

ytxK
Putative nucleic acid methyltransferase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme; To type I restriction system adenine methylases.
  
     0.643
ypiA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
   
 0.608
ydcK
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; Belongs to the SprT family.
  
     0.544
ltaSA
Exported glycerol phosphate lipoteichoic acid synthetase and anion-binding protein; Catalyzes the polymerization of lipoteichoic acid (LTA) polyglycerol phosphate, a reaction that presumably uses phosphatidylglycerol (PG) as substrate.
  
    0.535
ltaSB
Enzyme responsible for polyglycerolphosphate LTA synthesis; Catalyzes the polymerization of lipoteichoic acid (LTA) polyglycerol phosphate, a reaction that presumably uses phosphatidylglycerol (PG) as substrate; Belongs to the LTA synthase family.
  
    0.519
yoqJ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
