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

rtcBConserved hypothetical protein; GTP-dependent RNA ligase that is involved in tRNA splicing and RNA repair. Joins RNA with 2',3'-cyclic-phosphate or 3'-phosphate ends to RNA with 5'-hydroxy ends; Belongs to the RtcB family. (482 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
AF_1495
Conserved hypothetical protein; Activates the tRNA-splicing ligase complex by facilitating the enzymatic turnover of catalytic subunit RtcB. Acts by promoting the guanylylation of RtcB, a key intermediate step in tRNA ligation. Can also alter the NTP specificity of RtcB such that ATP, dGTP or ITP is used efficiently (By similarity).
 
 0.965
rtcA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the conversion of 3'-phosphate to a 2',3'-cyclic phosphodiester at the end of RNA. The mechanism of action of the enzyme occurs in 3 steps: (A) adenylation of the enzyme by ATP; (B) transfer of adenylate to an RNA-N3'P to produce RNA-N3'PP5'A; (C) and attack of the adjacent 2'-hydroxyl on the 3'-phosphorus in the diester linkage to produce the cyclic end product. The biological role of this enzyme is unknown but it is likely to function in some aspects of cellular RNA processing (By similarity).

AF_0865
Carboxylesterase (est-1); Similar to GB:D14529 PID:402521 percent identity: 27.06; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
     
 0.774
AF_0863
Predicted coding region AF_0863; Hypothetical protein; identified by GeneMark; putative.
       0.773
AF_0864
Predicted coding region AF_0864; Hypothetical protein; identified by GeneMark; putative.

prf1
Peptide chain release factor eRF, subunit 1; Directs the termination of nascent peptide synthesis (translation) in response to the termination codons UAA, UAG and UGA.
  
    0.714
eif2a
Translation initiation factor eIF-2, subunit alpha (eif2A); eIF-2 functions in the early steps of protein synthesis by forming a ternary complex with GTP and initiator tRNA; Belongs to the eIF-2-alpha family.
   
  
 0.712
eIF1A
Translation initiation factor eIF-1A (eif1A); Seems to be required for maximal rate of protein biosynthesis. Enhances ribosome dissociation into subunits and stabilizes the binding of the initiator Met-tRNA(I) to 40 S ribosomal subunits (By similarity).
     
 0.700
AF_0458
Phosphomannomutase (pmm); Similar to GB:L77117 PID:1591745 percent identity: 39.46; identified by sequence similarity; putative; Belongs to the phosphohexose mutase family.
     
 0.643
AF_0866
Glycerol kinase (glpK); Similar to GB:M34393 SP:P18157 PID:142992 PID:2226137 GB:AL009126 percent identity: 33.83; identified by sequence similarity; putative; Belongs to the FGGY kinase family.
