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

yrzEPutative transporter; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter. (150 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
spoIVFA
Regulator of SpoIVFB (stage IV sporulation); Implicated in the coupling of mother cell to forespore gene expression. Required for spore formation at 37 degrees Celsius, but not at 30 degrees Celsius. SpoIVFA plays a central role in both maintaining the SpoIVFA/BofA/SpoIVFB complex and anchoring it to the outer forespore membrane. SpoIVFA brings BofA into close proximity to SpoIVFB, allowing BofA to inhibit SpoIVFB. Increased accumulation of SpoIVFA seems to inhibit the activity of SpoIVFB and thus regulates the activation of sigma-K.

spoIIIAF
Stage III sporulation protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process.
  
    0.865
spoVID
Morphogenetic spore protein (stage VI sporulation); Required for assembly of a normal spore coat. May be a component of the innermost layer of the spore coat that aids in its adherence to the prespore.
  
    0.787
yqhG
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
    0.766
ysxE
Spore coat protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process.

spoIIIAG
Stage III sporulation engulfment assembly protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process.

yqgE
Putative efflux transporter; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter.
  
    0.762
ytrI
Protein involved in sporulation; Involved in sporulation.
  
    0.760
csfB
Forespore-specific anti-sigma factor; An anti-sigma-G factor, prevents premature activation of sigma-G factor in the forespore; overexpression leads to 1000-fold reduction in spore formation, spore formation stops after engulfment. Overexpression also inhibits sigma- G transcription activation activity. When both Gin and sigma-G are expressed in E.coli Gin inhibits sigma-G, strongly suggesting Gin inhibits by direct physical interaction.
  
     0.759
yqhR
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.
