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

ywqCModulator of YwqD protein tyrosine kinase activity; Required for YwqD kinase activity. May bring YwqD and its substrates into contact. Probably involved in the regulation of capsular polysaccharide biosynthesis. (248 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ptkA
Protein tyrosine kinase; May be involved in the regulation of capsular polysaccharide biosynthesis. Autophosphorylates in vitro. Phosphorylates and activates in vitro two UDP-glucose dehydrogenases, YwqF and TuaD, as well as the DNA-binding proteins Ssb and SsbB; Belongs to the CpsD/CapB family.
 
 0.999
epsB
Protein tyrosine kinase; Evidence 2b: Function of strongly homologous gene; enzyme; Belongs to the CpsD/CapB family.
 
 0.998
ywqE
Protein tyrosine-phosphatase; Dephosphorylates the phosphotyrosine-containing proteins YwqD, YwqF and Ssb.
 
 
 0.998
ywqF
UDP-glucose dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the conversion of UDP-glucose into UDP-glucuronate, one of the precursors of teichuronic acid. Belongs to the UDP-glucose/GDP-mannose dehydrogenase family.
  
  
 0.905
epsA
Modulator of protein tyrosine kinase EpsB; Evidence 2b: Function of strongly homologous gene; regulator.
  
 
0.813
yabT
Putative serine/threonine-protein kinase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme.
    
 
 0.773
tuaD
UDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the conversion of UDP-glucose into UDP-glucuronate, one of the precursors of teichuronic acid; Belongs to the UDP-glucose/GDP-mannose dehydrogenase family.
     
 0.692
epsL
Putative phosphotransferase involved in extracellular matrix synthesis; May be involved in the production of the exopolysaccharide (EPS) component of the extracellular matrix during biofilm formation. EPS is responsible for the adhesion of chains of cells into bundles.
 
  
 0.588
ydjE
Putative sugar kinase (ribokinase family); 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 carbohydrate kinase PfkB family.
      
 0.561
divIVA
Cell-division initiation protein; May act as a pilot protein, directing MinCD to the polar septation sites or by inhibiting MinCD at the midcell site of division. Required for polar localization of the chromosome during sporulation.
