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

spoIIDAutolysin required for complete dissolution of the asymmetric septum (stage II sporulation); May act at the level of sigma-G activity or its stability. SpoIID is probably required for engulfment. (343 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
spoIIM
Autolysin component for dissolution of the septal cell wall (stage II sporulation); Required for complete septum migration and engulfment of the forespore compartment during sporulation. Required for stabilizing and recruiting of SpoIIP to the septal membrane.
   
  
 0.999
spoIIP
Spore autolysin (stage II sporulation); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process.
  
  
 0.999
spoIIQ
Forespore protein required for alternative engulfment; Involved in forespore engulfment and required for anchoring membrane proteins on the forespore side of the septal membrane. Forms a channel with SpoIIIAH that is open on the forespore end and closed (or gated) on the mother cell end. This allows sigma-E-directed gene expression in the mother-cell compartment of the sporangium to trigger the activation of sigma-G forespore-specific gene expression by a pathway of intercellular signaling.
 
  
 0.975
spoIIIAH
Stage III sporulation ratchet engulfment protein; Involved in forespore engulfment. Forms a channel with SpoIIIAH that is open on the forespore end and closed (or gated) on the mother cell end. This allows sigma-E-directed gene expression in the mother-cell compartment of the sporangium to trigger the activation of sigma-G forespore-specific gene expression by a pathway of intercellular signaling.
  
  
 0.969
spoIVA
Morphogenetic stage IV sporulation protein; ATPase. Has a role at an early stage in the morphogenesis of the spore coat outer layers. Its ATP hydrolysis is required for proper assembly of the spore coat. Forms a basement layer around the outside surface of the forespore and self-assembles irreversibly into higher order structures by binding and hydrolyzing ATP thus creating a durable and stable platform upon which thereafter morphogenesis of the coat can take place. Required for proper localization of spore coat protein CotE and sporulation-specific proteins including SpoVM.
  
  
 0.933
spoIIB
Stage II sporulation protein B; Involved in endospore development.
   
  
 0.915
spoIIE
SpoIIAA-phosphate serine phosphatase; Normally needed for pro-sigma E processing during sporulation but can be bypassed in vegetative cells. Activates SpoIIAA by dephosphorylation.
 
  
 0.911
spoIVFA
Regulator of SpoIVFB (stage IV sporulation); Implicated in the coupling of mother cell to forespore gene expression. Required for spore formation at 37 degrees Celsius, but not at 30 degrees Celsius. SpoIVFA plays a central role in both maintaining the SpoIVFA/BofA/SpoIVFB complex and anchoring it to the outer forespore membrane. SpoIVFA brings BofA into close proximity to SpoIVFB, allowing BofA to inhibit SpoIVFB. Increased accumulation of SpoIVFA seems to inhibit the activity of SpoIVFB and thus regulates the activation of sigma-K.
 
  
 0.911
spoIIIAA
ATP-binding stage III sporulation protein; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type cp: cell process.
  
  
 0.883
spoIIR
pro-sigma(E) endopeptidase (stage II sporulation); Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme.
