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

yusNConserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function. (110 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yuzM
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
 
    0.963
yhcQ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
   
  
 0.798
yqfX
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
    0.743
yraD
Putative spore coat protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; cell process.
   
  
 0.679
spoVID
Morphogenetic spore protein (stage VI sporulation); Required for assembly of a normal spore coat. May be a component of the innermost layer of the spore coat that aids in its adherence to the prespore.
  
    0.663
ylbD
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
  
    0.637
yhcN
Putative lipoprotein; Probably contributes, directly or indirectly, to early events in germination. May play a role in spore outgrowth.
   
    0.621
sspB
Small acid-soluble spore protein (beta-type SASP); SASP are bound to spore DNA. They are double-stranded DNA- binding proteins that cause DNA to change to an a-like conformation. They protect the DNA backbone from chemical and enzymatic cleavage and are thus involved in dormant spore's high resistance to UV light.
   
  
 0.619
gdh
Glucose 1-dehydrogenase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
   
    0.605
spoIVFA
Regulator of SpoIVFB (stage IV sporulation); Implicated in the coupling of mother cell to forespore gene expression. Required for spore formation at 37 degrees Celsius, but not at 30 degrees Celsius. SpoIVFA plays a central role in both maintaining the SpoIVFA/BofA/SpoIVFB complex and anchoring it to the outer forespore membrane. SpoIVFA brings BofA into close proximity to SpoIVFB, allowing BofA to inhibit SpoIVFB. Increased accumulation of SpoIVFA seems to inhibit the activity of SpoIVFB and thus regulates the activation of sigma-K.
