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

mgsRTranscriptional regulator of stress; Regulates transcription of a subregulon within the general stress response. Exerts positive and negative effects in response to ethanol stress. (126 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yoxC
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
  
 0.868
nhaX
Stress response protein, UspA family; Evidence 2b: Function of strongly homologous gene; factor.
   
  
 0.817
ohrB
Organic hydroperoxide resistance reductase B; Involved in organic hydroperoxide resistance. Belongs to the OsmC/Ohr family.
  
  
 0.814
gspA
Putative glycosyl transferase (general stress protein); Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative enzyme.
  
  
 0.775
ydaG
Putative general stress protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative factor.
   
  
 0.760
yflT
Heat stress induced protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type f: factor.
   
  
 0.754
yhdN
Aldo/keto reductase specific for NADPH; Aldo-keto reductase (AKR) that displays broad substrate specificity in vitro. Is able to reduce the standard AKR substrates DL- glyceraldehyde, D-erythrose, methylglyoxal, p-nitrobenzaldehyde, benzaldehyde and butyraldehyde, in the presence of NADPH. Cannot use NADH as a cosubstrate. Does not act on glucose, 2-pyridine carboxyaldehyde, fructose and xylose. The physiological function of this enzyme is not clear. May play a role in bacterial stress response and/or in detoxification of reactive aldehydes. Belongs to the aldo/keto reductase family. A [...]

katE
Catalase 2; Decomposes hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen; serves to protect cells from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide. Involved in sporulation.
  
  
 0.749
ytxG
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 8733232.
  
  
 0.748
sigB
RNA polymerase sigma-37 factor (sigma(B)); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Sigma B is not essential for sporulation; rather it is required for maximal expression of ctc and csbA which are transcribed in the early stationary phase under conditions inimical to sporulation. May play a role in the ability of the bacterium to adapt to various stresses but is not essential for its survival under these conditions. Positively regulates expression of its own operon; Belongs to the sigma-70 fac [...]
