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

lytRMembrane-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). (306 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lytS
Two-component sensor histidine kinase [LytT]; Member of the two-component regulatory system LytS/LytT that probably regulates genes involved in cell wall metabolism.
   
  
 0.882
tagO
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:undecaprenyl-P N-acetylglucosaminyl-1-P transferase; Catalyzes the formation of undecaprenyl-PP-N- acetylglucosamine. Involved in the synthesis of anionic cell-wall polymers as it mediates the initiation of the linkage unit formation that appears to be common to the two types of teichoic acids attached to the peptidoglycan of B.subtilis; may also be involved in teichuronic acid biosynthesis (Probable); Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 4 family.

lytT
Two-component response regulator [LytS]; Member of the two-component regulatory system LytS/LytT that probably regulates genes involved in cell wall metabolism.
   
  
 0.779
srtA
Sortase A; Transpeptidase that anchors surface proteins to the cell wall. Recognizes and modifies its substrate by proteolytic cleavage of a C-terminal sorting signal. Following cleavage, a covalent intermediate is formed via a thioester bond between the sortase and its substrate, which is then transferred and covalently attached to the cell wall (Probable). This sortase recognizes a Leu-Pro-Asp-Thr-Ser/Ala (LPDTS/A) motif. It has two substrates, YhcR and YfkN. Belongs to the bacterial sortase family. Class D subfamily.

lrgB
Antiholin factor; Inhibits the expression or activity of extracellular murein hydrolases by interacting, possibly with LrgA, with the holin-like protein CidA. The LrgAB and CidA proteins may affect the proton motive force of the membrane. May be involved in programmed cell death (PCD), possibly triggering PCD in response to antibiotics and environmental stresses; Belongs to the CidB/LrgB family. LrgB subfamily.
      
 0.680
lrgA
Antiholin factor; Inhibits the expression or activity of extracellular murein hydrolases by interacting, possibly with LrgB, with the holin-like protein CidA. The LrgAB and CidA proteins may affect the proton motive force of the membrane. May be involved in programmed cell death (PCD), possibly triggering PCD in response to antibiotics and environmental stresses; Belongs to the CidA/LrgA family. LrgA subfamily.
      
 0.680
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.
  
  
 0.619
lytA
Membrane bound lipoprotein; Possible role in the secretion of LytB and LytC.
  
  
 0.582
sepF
Cell division machinery factor; Cell division protein that is part of the divisome complex and is recruited early to the Z-ring. Probably stimulates Z-ring formation, perhaps through the cross-linking of FtsZ protofilaments. Its function overlaps with FtsA; Belongs to the SepF family.
  
   
 0.576
tagA
N-acetylglucosaminyldiphosphoundecaprenol N-acetyl-beta-D-mannosaminyltransferase; Catalyzes the conversion of GlcNAc-PP-undecaprenol into ManNAc-GlcNAc-PP-undecaprenol, the first committed lipid intermediate in the de novo synthesis of teichoic acid. Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 26 family. TagA/TarA subfamily.
