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

Score
ywkDPutative lyase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme. (128 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ytoA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function; Belongs to the transferase hexapeptide repeat family.
 
    0.696
prmC
Glutamine methylase of release factor 1 (and perhaps others) at a GGQ site; Methylates the class 1 translation termination release factors RF1/PrfA and RF2/PrfB on the glutamine residue of the universally conserved GGQ motif; Belongs to the protein N5-glutamine methyltransferase family. PrmC subfamily.
  
    0.574
prfA
Peptide chain release factor 1; Peptide chain release factor 1 directs the termination of translation in response to the peptide chain termination codons UAG and UAA.
       0.573
racA
Chromosome-anchoring protein RacA; Required for the formation of axial filaments and for anchoring the origin regions at the cell poles in sporulating cells, thus ensuring proper chromosome segregation in the prespore. Binds in a dispersed manner throughout the chromosome but preferentially to sites clustered in the origin portion of the chromosome, causing condensation of the chromosome and its remodeling into an elongated, anchored structure; Belongs to the RacA family.
  
    0.504
sdhC
Succinate dehydrogenase (cytochrome b558 subunit); Di-heme cytochrome of the succinate dehydrogenase complex.
   
    0.457
pksN
Polyketide synthase of type I; Involved in some intermediate steps for the synthesis of the antibiotic polyketide bacillaene which is involved in secondary metabolism.
  
 
 0.430
ywkF
Hypothetical protein; Evidence 5: No homology to any previously reported sequences.
       0.424
pksJ
Polyketide synthase of type I; Involved in some intermediate steps for the synthesis of the antibiotic polyketide bacillaene which is involved in secondary metabolism.
  
 
 0.408
