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

yqxDConserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 9387153; Belongs to the UPF0178 family. (164 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dnaG
DNA primase; RNA polymerase that catalyzes the synthesis of short RNA molecules used as primers for DNA polymerase during DNA replication.
  
  
 0.860
antE
Hypothetical protein; Evidence 5: No homology to any previously reported sequences; PubMedId: 9864351.
      
 0.848
yfhS
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 10463184.
      
 0.845
yqfL
Positive regulator of gluconeogenesis; Bifunctional serine/threonine kinase and phosphorylase involved in the regulation of the pyruvate, phosphate dikinase (PPDK) by catalyzing its phosphorylation/dephosphorylation.
  
  
 0.835
yqfU
Putative integral inner membrane protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pm: putative membrane component.
      
 0.760
sigA
RNA polymerase major sigma-43 factor (sigma-A); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is the primary sigma factor during exponential growth; Belongs to the sigma-70 factor family. RpoD/SigA subfamily.
  
  
 0.690
ccpN
Negative regulator of gluconeogenesis; Transcription repressor that binds to the promoter of gapB and pckA genes, preventing their expression. Acts as a regulator for catabolite repression of gluconeogenic genes.
  
  
 0.651
yxlG
Putative ABC-transporter (permease); Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter.
      
 0.575
cshB
ATP-dependent RNA helicase; DEAD-box RNA helicase that plays a role in 70S ribosome assembly. May work in conjunction with the cold shock proteins to ensure proper initiation of transcription at low and optimal temperatures.
 
  
 0.499
yflL
Putative acylphosphatase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme; Belongs to the acylphosphatase family.
