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

rapGResponse regulator aspartate phosphatase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme. (365 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
phrG
Secreted regulator of the activity of phosphatase RapG; Inhibitor of the activity of phosphatase RapG.
  
 
 0.998
comA
Two-component response regulator; Response regulator in the two-component regulatory system ComP/ComA involved in a major quorum response pathway that regulates the development of genetic competence. Regulates directly the expression of over 20 genes, including genes of the srfA operon, degQ, rapA, rapC, rapE, rapF, etc. Regulates indirectly, through the regulation of comK transcription, the expression of late competence genes.
     
 0.915
degU
Two-component response regulator; Member of the two-component regulatory system DegS/DegU, which plays an important role in the transition growth phase. Involved in the control of expression of different cellular functions, including production of degradative enzymes such as the neutral and alkaline proteases, flagellum formation, biofilm formation, and competence for DNA uptake. Positively or negatively regulates expression of many different genes. The phosphorylated form is required for synthesis of degradative enzymes, flagellum formation and biofilm formation. The unphosphorylated [...]

rghRA
Transcriptional repressor; Represses the expression of yvaM and both rapG and rapH. Binds directly to the promoter regions of yvaM, rapG and rapH.
      
 0.846
phrF
Secreted regulator of the activity of phosphatase RapF; Inhibitor of the activity of phosphatase RapF; Belongs to the phr family.
   
  
 0.767
spo0F
Two-component response regulator; Key element in the phosphorelay regulating sporulation initiation. Phosphorylation of spo0B during sporulation initiation.
   
  
 0.760
