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.

AFE_0487Conserved hypothetical protein; Identified by similarity to PIR:F64553; match to protein family HMM PF04028. (193 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lpxK
Tetraacyldisaccharide 4'-kinase; Transfers the gamma-phosphate of ATP to the 4'-position of a tetraacyldisaccharide 1-phosphate intermediate (termed DS-1-P) to form tetraacyldisaccharide 1,4'-bis-phosphate (lipid IVA).
 
     0.886
kdtA
3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic-acid transferase; Involved in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthesis. Catalyzes the transfer of 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate (Kdo) residue(s) from CMP- Kdo to lipid IV(A), the tetraacyldisaccharide-1,4'-bisphosphate precursor of lipid A; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase group 1 family.
     0.876
kdsB
3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate cytidylyltransferase; Activates KDO (a required 8-carbon sugar) for incorporation into bacterial lipopolysaccharide in Gram-negative bacteria.
 
     0.848
AFE_0488
Hypothetical protein; Identified by glimmer; putative.
       0.805
AFE_0490
Conserved hypothetical protein; Identified by similarity to GB:CAD16238.1; match to protein family HMM PF03966; Belongs to the UPF0434 family.
       0.794
ppa
Inorganic pyrophosphatase; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) forming two phosphate ions.
       0.705
AFE_0485
MotA/TolQ/ExbB proton channel family protein; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF01618.
       0.534
AFE_0486
Biopolymer transport protein, ExbD/TolR family; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF02472.
       0.534
AFE_0493
Hypothetical protein; Identified by glimmer; putative.
       0.534
lpxA
acyl-(acyl-carrier-protein)-UDP-N- acetylglucosamine acyltransferase; Involved in the biosynthesis of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell.
