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

ytzEPutative transcriptional regulator (DeoR family); Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative regulator. (73 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ylaI
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.

ytlQ
Putative hydrolase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme.
 
     0.714
spoVIF
Sporulation-specific protein needed for heat resistance; Transcription factor involved in spore coat assembly and spore resistance. Regulates the transcription of at least cgeA, cotG and cotS.
  
     0.678
ypzK
Putative acetyltransferase; Involved in riboflavin biosynthesis.
  
    0.636
scoC
HTH-type transcriptional regulator Hpr; Negative regulator of protease production and sporulation. Acts by binding directly to the promoter of protease genes (aprE and nprE), and by repressing oligopeptide permease operons (appABCDF and oppABCDF), thereby preventing uptake of oligopeptides required for initiation of sporulation. Acts with SinR as a corepressor of epr expression.
  
    0.629
rsiX
Negative regulator of sigma(X) activity; The anti-sigma factor for extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factor SigX, inhibits SigX activity and stabilizes it.
  
     0.629
fliJ
Flagellar synthesis chaperone; Flagellar protein that affects chemotactic events.
  
     0.621
ygxA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
     0.615
yrrS
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 14679248.
  
    0.612
ezrA
Negative regulator of FtsZ ring formation; Negative regulator of FtsZ ring formation; modulates the frequency and position of FtsZ ring formation. Inhibits FtsZ ring formation at polar sites. Interacts either with FtsZ or with one of its binding partners to promote depolymerization.
