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.

lytAMembrane bound lipoprotein; Possible role in the secretion of LytB and LytC. (102 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lytC
Putative undecaprenyl-phosphate N-acetylgalactosaminyl-1-phosphate transferase; Autolysins are cell wall hydrolases involved in some important biological processes such as cell separation, cell-wall turnover, competence for genetic transformation, formation of the flagella - in particular of its basal body - and sporulation. Has a high affinity for teichoic acid-endowed peptidoglycan. LytC is required for efficient swarming motility but not at the level of cell separation or flagellum biosynthesis. Rather, LytC appears to be important for proper flagellar function.
  
  
 0.992
lytB
Modifier protein of major autolysin LytC; Possibly involved in cell wall metabolism during spore formation. Enhances the amidase activity approximately threefold.
  
  
 0.992
lytF
gamma-D-glutamate-meso-diaminopimelate muropeptidase (major autolysin); Cell wall hydrolase that cleaves gamma-D-glutamate-meso- diaminopimelate bonds in peptidoglycan. LytF is necessary and sufficient for vegetative daughter cell separation, and also seems to play a role in cell autolysis.
   
  
 0.838
lytH
Sporulation-specific L-Ala-D-Glu endopeptidase; L-Ala--D-Glu endopeptidase involved in production of single L-alanine side chains from tetrapeptides in the spore cortex peptidoglycan. Therefore, is required for the endospore cortex maturation.
      
 0.718
cccB
Cytochrome c551; Electron carrier protein.
      
 0.718
lytD
Exported N-acetylglucosaminidase (major autolysin) (CWBP90); Cell wall hydrolase not involved in cell autolysis, competence, sporulation or germination. It hydrolyzes the beta-1,4 glycan bond between the N-acetylglucosaminyl and the N-acetylmuramoyl residues in the glycan chain.
   
  
 0.712
lytR
Membrane-bound transcriptional regulator; May catalyze the final step in cell wall teichoic acid biosynthesis, the transfer of the anionic cell wall polymers (APs) from their lipid-linked precursor to the cell wall peptidoglycan (PG).
  
  
 0.575
yvcA
Putative lipoprotein; Required for complex colony architecture.
   
  
 0.570
yvyC
Putative flagellar protein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative structure.
   
    0.564
sodC
Superoxide dismutase (exported lipoprotein); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type lp: lipoprotein.
   
  
 0.553
