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

yxkDEfflux transporter; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; transporter. (278 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ykkC
Efflux transporter; Probably involved in guanidinium transport. In vitro, confers resistance to a broad range of toxic compounds such as cationic dyes, neutral and anionic antimicrobials.
  
  
 0.974
ykoY
Putative transporter; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pt: putative transporter.
   
  
 0.848
ydaO
Putative metabolite transporter; High-affinity potassium transporter.
   
  
 0.826
yybP
Putative lipoprotein; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; putative transporter.
   
  
 0.822
xkdD
Conserved hypothetical protein; Evidence 4: Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
      
 0.746
ktrA
Potassium uptake protein; Catalytic subunit of the KtrAB potassium uptake transporter. The 2 major potassium transporter complexes KtrAB and KtrCD confer resistance to both suddenly imposed and prolonged osmotic stress.
  
  
 0.716
glmS
L-glutamine-D-fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase; Catalyzes the first step in hexosamine metabolism, converting fructose-6P into glucosamine-6P using glutamine as a nitrogen source.
      
 0.572
rdgB
Inosine/xanthosine triphosphate pyrophosphatase (subunit A); Pyrophosphatase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleoside triphosphates to their monophosphate derivatives, with a high preference for the non-canonical purine nucleotides XTP (xanthosine triphosphate), dITP (deoxyinosine triphosphate) and ITP. Seems to function as a house-cleaning enzyme that removes non-canonical purine nucleotides from the nucleotide pool, thus preventing their incorporation into DNA/RNA and avoiding chromosomal lesions. Belongs to the HAM1 NTPase family.
 
    0.523
rsmD
Putative ribosomal RNA small subunit methyltransferase D; May catalyze the S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methylation of a specific base in rRNA.
   
  
 0.511
mgtE
Magnesium transporter; Acts as a magnesium transporter.
      
 0.485
