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

dpsDNA-protecting protein, ferritin; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; Product type e: enzyme. (145 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rsbW
Switch protein/serine kinase and anti-sigma factor (inhibitory sigma-B binding protein); Negative regulator of sigma-B activity. Phosphorylates and inactivates its specific antagonist protein, RsbV. Upon phosphorylation of RsbV, RsbW is released and binds to sigma-B, thereby blocking its ability to form an RNA polymerase holoenzyme (E-sigma-B).

ytxH
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 16291680, 8733232; To C.plantagineum desiccation-related protein clone PCC3- 06.
   
  
 0.737
ytxJ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 8733232.
   
  
 0.730
hpf
Ribosome-associated sigma 54 modulation protein; Required for dimerization of active 70S ribosomes into 100S ribosomes in stationary phase; 100S ribosomes are translationally inactive and sometimes present during exponential growth. May not be the only factor implicated. Might negatively regulate the activity of the sigma-54 factor (SigL).
  
    0.727
ytxG
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; PubMedId: 8733232.
   
    0.723
yvaA
Putative oxidoreductase; Catalyzes the reversible NADPH-dependent reduction of scyllo- inosose (SIS) to scyllo-inositol (SI). Cannot use NADH instead of NADPH. May be involved in reduction of not only SIS but also various oxidized compounds manifested upon stressful conditions.
   
    0.705
katE
Catalase 2; Decomposes hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen; serves to protect cells from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide. Involved in sporulation.
  
  
 0.705
csbD
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 7: Gene remnant.
  
  
 0.685
ydaG
Putative general stress protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative factor.
  
    0.675
ahpC
Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase (small subunit); Thiol-specific peroxidase that catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and alcohols, respectively. Plays a role in cell protection against oxidative stress by detoxifying peroxides; Belongs to the peroxiredoxin family. AhpC/Prx1 subfamily.
