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

ytfIConserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function. (226 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ytfJ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
 
    0.973
yqfC
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 12662922.
  
    0.794
spoIIIAE
Stage III sporulation protein; Required during sporulation for activation of sigma factor SpoIIIG/SigG after engulfment is completed in the prespore. Overexpression in the absence of SpoIIIJ is synthetically lethal.
  
    0.742
gerM
Germination (cortex hydrolysis) and sporulation (stage II, multiple polar septa) lytic enzyme; Unknown. Affects both sporulation and germination.
  
    0.722
ytrH
Membrane protein involved in a sporulation process; Involved in sporulation. May contribute to cortex formation or stability.
  
     0.706
yabQ
Membrane protein of the forespore; Required for sporulation. Plays an important role in cortex and coat formation.
  
     0.693
yaaC
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
     0.690
spoIIM
Autolysin component for dissolution of the septal cell wall (stage II sporulation); Required for complete septum migration and engulfment of the forespore compartment during sporulation. Required for stabilizing and recruiting of SpoIIP to the septal membrane.
 
    0.668
spoIIIAF
Stage III sporulation protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process.
  
    0.665
spoIIIAB
Stage III sporulation protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process.
