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.

infBTranslation initiation factor aIF-2 (infB); Function in general translation initiation by promoting the binding of the formylmethionine-tRNA to ribosomes. Seems to function along with eIF-2 (By similarity). (1155 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpl7ae
LSU ribosomal protein L7AE; Multifunctional RNA-binding protein that recognizes the K- turn motif in ribosomal RNA, the RNA component of RNase P, box H/ACA, box C/D and box C'/D' sRNAs; Belongs to the eukaryotic ribosomal protein eL8 family.
 
 
 0.996
rps3
SSU ribosomal protein S3P (rpsC); Binds the lower part of the 30S subunit head. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS3 family.
 
 
 0.995
rps2
SSU ribosomal protein S2P; Similar to GP:1707827 percent identity: 54.69; identified by sequence similarity; putative; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS2 family.
 
 0.994
rps11
SSU ribosomal protein S11P (rpsK); Located on the platform of the 30S subunit. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS11 family.
 
 0.993
rps4
SSU ribosomal protein S4P (rpsD); One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the body of the 30S subunit.
 
 
 0.992
rps5
SSU ribosomal protein S5P (rpsE); With S4 and S12 plays an important role in translational accuracy.
 
 0.992
rps6e
SSU ribosomal protein S6E; Similar to SP:P21509 percent identity: 39.84; identified by sequence similarity; putative; Belongs to the eukaryotic ribosomal protein eS6 family.
 
 
 0.991
rpl2
LSU ribosomal protein L2P (rplB); One of the primary rRNA binding proteins. Required for association of the 30S and 50S subunits to form the 70S ribosome, for tRNA binding and peptide bond formation. It has been suggested to have peptidyltransferase activity; this is somewhat controversial. Makes several contacts with the 16S rRNA in the 70S ribosome. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL2 family.
 
 0.989
rps19
SSU ribosomal protein S19P (rpsS); Protein S19 forms a complex with S13 that binds strongly to the 16S ribosomal RNA.
 
 
 0.989
rps9
SSU ribosomal protein S9P (rpsI); Similar to SP:P05763 GB:M76567 PID:148778 percent identity: 50.39; identified by sequence similarity; putative; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS9 family.
  
 0.988
