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

yxlCsigma-Y antisigma factor; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type r: regulator. (106 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yxlD
Putative sigma-Y antisigma factor component; Together with YxlE, is important for negative regulation of sigma Y activity, being the major negative regulator.
  
  
 0.999
sigY
RNA polymerase ECF (extracytoplasmic function)-type sigma factor (sigma-Y); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. Positively regulates the expression of the sigY-yxlCDEFG operon upon nitrogen starvation. Also positively regulates ybgB.
  
 
 0.998
yxlE
Negative regulator of sigma-Y activity; Together with YxlD is important for negative regulation of sigma Y activity.
  
  
 0.996
yxlF
Putative ABC transporter component (ATP-binding protein); Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter.
  
    0.942
yxlG
Putative ABC-transporter (permease); Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter.
  
    0.921
yxlH
Putative efflux transporter; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter.
   
  
 0.889
ybgB
Hypothetical protein; Evidence 5: No homology to any previously reported sequences; PubMedId: 12897008.
   
  
 0.751
sigZ
RNA polymerase ECF(extracytoplasmic function)-type sigma factor (sigma-Z); Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released.
      
 0.708
ylaD
anti-YlaC sigma factor; Anti-sigma factor for YlaC; Belongs to the zinc-associated anti-sigma factor (ZAS) superfamily.
      
 0.685
ylaC
RNA polymerase ECF-type sigma factor; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor contributes to oxidative stress resistance.
