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

prfBPeptide chain release factor 2; Peptide chain release factor 2 directs the termination of translation in response to the peptide chain termination codons UGA and UAA. (366 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rplU
Ribosomal protein L21 (BL20); This protein binds to 23S rRNA in the presence of protein L20; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL21 family.
   
   0.975
frr
Ribosome recycling factor; Responsible for the release of ribosomes from messenger RNA at the termination of protein biosynthesis. May increase the efficiency of translation by recycling ribosomes from one round of translation to another; Belongs to the RRF family.
 
 
 0.974
rpmA
Ribosomal protein L27 (BL24); Plays a role in sporulation at high temperatures.
 
 
 0.970
rpsP
Ribosomal protein S16 (BS17); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type f: factor.
 
 
 0.966
rplM
Ribosomal protein L13; This protein is one of the early assembly proteins of the 50S ribosomal subunit, although it is not seen to bind rRNA by itself. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly.
  
   0.962
rpsL
Ribosomal protein S12 (BS12); With S4 and S5 plays an important role in translational accuracy.
 
 
 0.961
rpsG
Ribosomal protein S7 (BS7); One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the head domain of the 30S subunit. Is located at the subunit interface close to the decoding center, probably blocks exit of the E-site tRNA; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS7 family.
 
 
 0.953
rplQ
Ribosomal protein L17 (BL15); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type s: structure.
  
   0.953
rplD
Ribosomal protein L4; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, this protein initially binds near the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly. It makes multiple contacts with different domains of the 23S rRNA in the assembled 50S subunit and ribosome.
  
 
 0.950
yqkK
Hypothetical protein; Evidence 5: No homology to any previously reported sequences.
    
 
 0.949
