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

dnaCReplicative DNA helicase; Evidence 1a: Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied strain; Product type e: enzyme; Belongs to the helicase family. DnaB subfamily. (454 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dnaI
Helicase loader; Probably involved in DNA replication.
  
 0.999
dnaG
DNA primase; RNA polymerase that catalyzes the synthesis of short RNA molecules used as primers for DNA polymerase during DNA replication.
 0.997
dnaB
Helicase loading protein; Probable component of primosome involved in the initiation of DNA replication. It is essential for both replication initiation and membrane attachment of the origin region of the chromosome and plasmid pUB110.
   
 
 0.996
dnaA
Chromosomal replication initiator protein DnaA; Plays an important role in the initiation and regulation of chromosomal replication. Binds to the origin of replication; it binds specifically double-stranded DNA at a 9 bp consensus (dnaA box): 5'- TTATC[CA]A[CA]A-3'. DnaA binds to ATP and to acidic phospholipids. DnaA can inhibit its own gene expression as well as that of other genes.
 
 
 0.987
dnaN
DNA polymerase III (beta subunit); Confers DNA tethering and processivity to DNA polymerases and other proteins. Acts as a clamp, forming a ring around DNA (a reaction catalyzed by the clamp-loading complex) which diffuses in an ATP- independent manner freely and bidirectionally along dsDNA. Initially characterized for its ability to contact the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase III (Pol III), a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria; Pol III exhibits 3'-5' exonuclease proofreading activity. The beta chain is required for initiation o [...]

yqaM
Putative replication-related ATPase; Evidence 3: Function proposed based on presence of conserved amino acid motif, structural feature or limited homology; Product type pe: putative enzyme; To B.subtilis YqxC and T.hyodysenteriae hemolysin TlyA.
  
 
 0.964
dnaX
DNA polymerase III (gamma and tau subunits); DNA polymerase III is a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria.
 
 
 0.956
polC
DNA polymerase III (alpha subunit); Required for replicative DNA synthesis. This DNA polymerase also exhibits 3' to 5' exonuclease activity; Belongs to the DNA polymerase type-C family. PolC subfamily.
  
  
 0.952
ssbA
Single-strand DNA-binding protein; Plays an important role in DNA replication, recombination and repair. Binds to ssDNA and to an array of partner proteins to recruit them to their sites of action during DNA metabolism. Has a 20-fold higher affinity for ssDNA than SsbB; SsbA and DprA activate the homologuos DNA strand exchange function of RecA-ATP.
 
 
 0.930
dnaD
DNA-remodelling primosomal protein; Probable component of primosome involved in the initiation of DNA replication.
  
 
 0.909
