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

sigV
RNA polymerase ECF(extracytoplasmic function)-type sigma factor (sigma(V)); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Positively regulates the expression of proteins involved in stress responses against bacitracin, paraquat and tellurite. Belongs to the sigma-70 factor family. ECF subfamily.

rsiV
anti-sigma(V) factor; Anti-sigma factor for SigV. Negatively regulates SigV activity through direct interaction.

dltA
D-alanine:D-alanyl-carrier protein ligase; Catalyzes the first step in the D-alanylation of lipoteichoic acid (LTA), the activation of D-alanine and its transfer onto the D- alanyl carrier protein (Dcp) DltC. In an ATP-dependent two-step reaction, forms a high energy D-alanyl-AMP intermediate, followed by transfer of the D-alanyl residue as a thiol ester to the phosphopantheinyl prosthetic group of the Dcp. D-alanylation of LTA plays an important role in modulating the properties of the cell wall in Gram-positive bacteria, influencing the net charge of the cell wall. Belongs to the ATP [...]
