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.

nusBTranscription termination factor NusB; Involved in transcription antitermination. Required for transcription of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. Binds specifically to the boxA antiterminator sequence of the ribosomal RNA (rrn) operons. (131 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
folD
Methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the oxidation of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate and then the hydrolysis of 5,10- methenyltetrahydrofolate to 10-formyltetrahydrofolate.
 
  
 0.998
nusG
Transcription antitermination factor; Participates in transcription elongation, termination and antitermination. Stimulates RNA polymerase pausing at U107 and U144 in the trp leader. NusG-stimulated pausing is sequence specific. Does not affect trp leader termination.
  
 
 0.995
rho
Transcriptional terminator Rho; Facilitates transcription termination by a mechanism that involves Rho binding to the nascent RNA, activation of Rho's RNA- dependent ATPase activity, and release of the mRNA from the DNA template.
  
  
 0.943
nusA
Transcription translation coupling factor involved in Rho-dependent transcription termination; Participates in both transcription termination and antitermination.
 
 
 0.885
ribH
6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine synthase, beta subunit; Catalyzes the formation of 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine by condensation of 5-amino-6-(D-ribitylamino)uracil with 3,4-dihydroxy-2- butanone 4-phosphate. This is the penultimate step in the biosynthesis of riboflavin. Is able to use the non-natural R enantiomer of 3,4- dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate as a substrate, but with less efficiency than the natural S enantiomer. Cannot use unphosphorylated 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone, 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 3-phosphate or diacetyl as substrates.
  
  
 0.874
rpoA
RNA polymerase (alpha subunit); DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
  
 
 0.870
rpoZ
Omega subunit of RNA polymerase; Promotes RNA polymerase assembly. Latches the N- and C- terminal regions of the beta' subunit thereby facilitating its interaction with the beta and alpha subunits (By similarity).
  
 
 0.858
suhB
Inositol monophosphatase; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the inositol monophosphatase superfamily.
   
 
 0.857
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.
 
  
 0.842
greA
Transcription elongation factor; Necessary for efficient RNA polymerase transcription elongation past template-encoded arresting sites. The arresting sites in DNA have the property of trapping a certain fraction of elongating RNA polymerases that pass through, resulting in locked ternary complexes. Cleavage of the nascent transcript by cleavage factors such as GreA or GreB allows the resumption of elongation from the new 3'terminus. GreA releases sequences of 2 to 3 nucleotides (By similarity); Belongs to the GreA/GreB family.
