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.

Score
yukFPutative transcriptional regulator; Mediates ald expression in response to alanine availability and is important for normal sporulation in B.subtilis. Belongs to the CdaR family. (422 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
adeC
Adenine deaminase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the metallo-dependent hydrolases superfamily. Adenine deaminase family.
      
 0.926
ald
L-alanine dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the reversible oxidative deamination of L-alanine to pyruvate. This enzyme is a key factor in the assimilation of L- alanine as an energy source through the tricarboxylic acid cycle during sporulation.
     
 0.764
yhjM
Transcriptional regulator of the ntd operon; Positively regulates the ntdABC operon and negatively regulates its own transcription. Binds to NTD to induce ntdABC transcription.
      
 0.714
parC
Subunit A of DNA topoisomerase IV; Topoisomerase IV is essential for chromosome segregation. It relaxes supercoiled DNA. Performs the decatenation events required during the replication of a circular DNA molecule; Belongs to the type II topoisomerase GyrA/ParC subunit family. ParC type 2 subfamily.
      
 0.687
tgl
Protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase (transglutaminase); Probably plays a role in the assembly of the spore coat proteins by catalyzing epsilon-(gamma-glutamyl)lysine cross-links. In wild-type spores at 37 degrees Celsius, tgl mediates the cross-linking of GerQ in higher molecular mass forms, probably in cooperation with YabG; Belongs to the bacillus TGase family.
 
     0.529
ysfB
Putative regulator; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pr: putative regulator; Belongs to the CdaR family.
 
    0.524
gyrA
DNA gyrase (subunit A); A type II topoisomerase that negatively supercoils closed circular double-stranded (ds) DNA in an ATP-dependent manner to modulate DNA topology and maintain chromosomes in an underwound state. Negative supercoiling favors strand separation, and DNA replication, transcription, recombination and repair, all of which involve strand separation. Also able to catalyze the interconversion of other topological isomers of dsDNA rings, including catenanes and knotted rings. Type II topoisomerases break and join 2 DNA strands simultaneously in an ATP-dependent manner.
      
 0.519
phoP
Two-component response regulator; Member of the two-component regulatory system PhoP/PhoR involved in the regulation of alkaline phosphatase genes phoA and phoB and of phosphodiesterase.
   
  
 0.490
ykuI
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
     0.473
pbpI
Penicillin-binding protein PBP4B; Penicillin-binding protein with an unknown catalytic activity. Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) function in the late steps of murein biosynthesis. Beta-lactamase inactivates the PBPs by acylating an essential serine residue in the active site of these proteins, thereby interrupting normal cell wall synthesis; Belongs to the transpeptidase family.
