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

sufAChaperone involved in Fe-S cluster assembly; Evidence 2a: Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; factor. (120 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sufU
Iron-sulfur cluster assembly scaffold protein; Its function is controversial. Has been generally assumed to be an iron-sulfur cluster assembly scaffold protein , but more recent evidence suggest it is a sulfurtransferase rather than a scaffold assembly protein. Has been shown to bind low levels of a labile, air- sensitive Fe-S cluster; this can be assembled under anaerobic conditions from FeCl(3) and Li(2)S. Has been shown to be able to transfer this Fe-S cluster to an acceptor protein. Stimulates the cysteine desulfurase activity of SufS, for which it acts as a second substrate. Alkyl [...]
 
  
 0.903
sufB
FeS cluster formation protein; The SufBCD complex acts synergistically with SufE to stimulate the cysteine desulfurase activity of SufS. The SufBCD complex contributes to the assembly or repair of oxygen-labile iron-sulfur clusters under oxidative stress. May facilitate iron uptake from extracellular iron chelators under iron limitation (By similarity). Belongs to the UPF0051 (ycf24) family.
  
 
 0.847
yutI
Putative iron-sulfur scaffold protein; May be involved in the formation or repair of [Fe-S] clusters present in iron-sulfur proteins.
  
 
 0.747
iscSA
Cysteine desulfurase involved in tRNA thiolation; Catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur from cysteine to produce alanine.
 
  
 0.734
iscSB
Cysteine desulfurase; Catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur from cysteine to produce alanine.
 
  
 0.733
nifS
Putative desulfurase involved in iron-sulfur clusters for NAD biosynthesis; Catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur from cysteine to produce alanine (By similarity). Seems to be required for NAD biosynthesis.
 
  
 0.726
ypgR
Putative lyase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme.
   
 
 0.706
sufC
Sulfur mobilizing ABC protein, ATPase; Evidence 2b: Function of strongly homologous gene; enzyme; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Ycf16 family.
  
 
 0.705
salA
Mrp family regulator; Binds and transfers iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters to target apoproteins. Can hydrolyze ATP; Belongs to the Mrp/NBP35 ATP-binding proteins family.
 
 
 0.636
dapF
Diaminopimelate epimerase; Catalyzes the stereoinversion of LL-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate (L,L-DAP) to meso-diaminoheptanedioate (meso-DAP), a precursor of L- lysine and an essential component of the bacterial peptidoglycan.
