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

mgfKGluconeogenesis morphogenetic factor; Required for morphogenesis under gluconeogenic growth conditions. Required, in gluconeogenic growth conditions, for the correct localization of PBP1 and hence for displaying a normal rod shape; Belongs to the gluconeogenesis factor family. (317 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yvcJ
GTPase; Displays ATPase and GTPase activities. Can also hydrolyze pNPP. May affect the expression of competence via the phosphorylation of a cellular component.
  
  
 0.997
whiA
Putative morphogen; Involved in cell division and chromosome segregation. May influence the activity of FtsZ. Binds DNA, but does not seem to function as a transcription factor ; Belongs to the WhiA family.
  
  
 0.985
yvcN
Putative acetyltransferase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative enzyme; Belongs to the arylamine N-acetyltransferase family.
  
  
 0.944
prpC
Phosphorylated protein phosphatase; Protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates PrkC and EF-G (elongation factor G, fusA). prpC and prkC are cotranscribed, which suggests that they form a functional couple in vivo, PrpC's primary role being possibly to counter the action of PrkC. May be involved in sporulation and biofilm formation. Does not seem to be involved in stress response. Dephosphorylates phosphorylated CgsA, EF-Tu and YezB.
   
  
 0.903
crh
Catabolite repression HPr-like protein; Along with seryl-phosphorylated HPr, phosphorylated Crh is implicated in carbon catabolite repression (CCR) of levanase, inositol dehydrogenase, and beta-xylosidase. Exerts its effect on CCR by interacting with CcpA.
  
  
 0.897
yvcI
Putative triphosphate pyrophosphate hydrolase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme; Belongs to the Nudix hydrolase family.
  
  
 0.881
gcaD
Bifunctional glucosamine-1-phosphate N-acetyltransferase/UDP-N-acetylglucosamine pyrophosphorylase; Catalyzes the last two sequential reactions in the de novo biosynthetic pathway for UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc). The C- terminal domain catalyzes the transfer of acetyl group from acetyl coenzyme A to glucosamine-1-phosphate (GlcN-1-P) to produce N- acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate (GlcNAc-1-P), which is converted into UDP-GlcNAc by the transfer of uridine 5-monophosphate (from uridine 5- triphosphate), a reaction catalyzed by the N-terminal domain. In the C-terminal section; belon [...]

prkA
Serine protein kinase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the PrkA family.
      
 0.815
ponA
Peptidoglycan glycosyltransferase (penicillin-binding proteins 1A and 1B); Cell wall formation. Synthesis of cross-linked peptidoglycan from the lipid intermediates. The enzyme has a penicillin-insensitive transglycosylase N-terminal domain (formation of linear glycan strands) and a penicillin-sensitive transpeptidase C-terminal domain (cross- linking of the peptide subunits).
  
  
 0.807
prkC
Protein kinase; Protein kinase that is responsible for triggering spore germination in response to muropeptides, signaling bacteria to exit dormancy. PrkC is thus a germination receptor that binds peptidoglycan fragments containing m-Dpm (meso-diaminopimelate), which act as spore germinants. Autophosphorylates and phosphorylates EF-G (elongation factor G, fusA); the latter modification is likely necessary for germination in response to peptidoglycan. Another group did not detect phosphorylation of EF-G. PrkC is a substrate in vitro of the cotranscribed phosphatase PrpC, which suggests [...]
