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
degUTwo-component response regulator; Member of the two-component regulatory system DegS/DegU, which plays an important role in the transition growth phase. Involved in the control of expression of different cellular functions, including production of degradative enzymes such as the neutral and alkaline proteases, flagellum formation, biofilm formation, and competence for DNA uptake. Positively or negatively regulates expression of many different genes. The phosphorylated form is required for synthesis of degradative enzymes, flagellum formation and biofilm formation. The unphosphorylated [...] (229 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
degS
Two-component sensor histidine kinase; Member of the two-component regulatory system DegS/DegU, which plays an important role in the transition growth phase. Involved in the control of expression of different cellular functions, including production of degradative enzymes such as the neutral and alkaline proteases, flagellum formation and biofilm formation. Acts as both a protein kinase that undergoes autophosphorylation and subsequently transfers the phosphate to DegU, and a protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates phospho-DegU.

rapG
Response regulator aspartate phosphatase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme.
   
 
  0.903
rapH
Response regulator aspartate phosphatase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the RAP family.

yhcY
Two-component sensor histidine kinase [YhcZ]; Member of the two-component regulatory system YhcY/YhcZ. Probably activates YhcZ by phosphorylation.
 
 
 
 0.798
yfiJ
Two-component sensor histidine kinase [YfiK]; Required for resistance to linearmycins, a family of antibiotic-specialized metabolites produced by some streptomycetes. Member of the two-component regulatory system LnrJ/LnrK, which induces expression of the LnrLMN ABC transporter in response to linearmycins and other polyenes. Acts as a specific sensor for linearmycin, either directly through binding or indirectly through membrane perturbation. Probably activates LnrK by phosphorylation. May also promote biofilm formation.
  
 0.794
liaS
Two-component sensor histidine kinase [YvqC] sensing cell wall stress; Member of the two-component regulatory system LiaS/LiaR probably involved in response to a subset of cell wall-active antibiotics that interfere with the lipid II cycle in the cytoplasmic membrane (bacitracin, nisin, ramoplanin and vancomycin). Seems also involved in response to cationic antimicrobial peptides and secretion stress. Activates probably LiaR by phosphorylation.
   
 0.790
comP
Two-component sensor histidine kinase; Sensor in the two-component regulatory system ComP/ComA involved in a major quorum response pathway that regulates the development of genetic competence. Plays a role in sporulation, at least partly interchangeable with that of SpoIIJ. Probably activates ComA by phosphorylation.
 
  
 0.784
yxjM
Two-component sensor histidine kinase [YxjL]; Probable member of the two-component regulatory system YxjM/YxjL. May activate YxjL by phosphorylation.
   
 0.782
yvfT
Two-component sensor histidine kinase [YvfU]; Member of the two-component regulatory system YvfT/YvfU. Probably activates YvfU by phosphorylation.
 
  
 0.778
ydfH
Two-component sensor histidine kinase [YdfI]; Member of the two-component regulatory system YdfH/YdfI. May activate YdfI by phosphorylation.
