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

mreDRod shape-determining protein MreD; Involved in formation of the rod shape of the cell. May also contribute to regulation of formation of penicillin-binding proteins. Belongs to the MreD family. (163 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
mreC
Rod shape-determining protein MreC; Involved in formation and maintenance of cell shape.
 
 
 0.987
mreB
Rod shape-determining protein MreB; Identified by similarity to SP:P13519; match to protein family HMM PF06723; match to protein family HMM TIGR00904.
 
  
 0.969
rodA
Rod shape-determining protein RodA; Peptidoglycan polymerase that is essential for cell wall elongation; Belongs to the SEDS family. MrdB/RodA subfamily.
 
  
 0.910
mrdA
Penicillin-binding protein 2; Catalyzes cross-linking of the peptidoglycan cell wall. Belongs to the transpeptidase family. MrdA subfamily.
 
  
 0.884
minC
Septum site-determining protein MinC; Cell division inhibitor that blocks the formation of polar Z ring septums. Rapidly oscillates between the poles of the cell to destabilize FtsZ filaments that have formed before they mature into polar Z rings. Prevents FtsZ polymerization; Belongs to the MinC family.
  
  
 0.861
ftsZ
Cell division protein FtsZ; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity.
   
  
 0.814
ftsQ
Putative cell division protein FtsQ; Essential cell division protein. May link together the upstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly cytoplasmic, with the downstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly periplasmic. May control correct divisome assembly.

MCA2890
Conserved hypothetical protein; Identified by similarity to GP:9949974; match to protein family HMM PF07721.
  
     0.732
MCA0380
Conserved hypothetical protein; Identified by similarity to OMNI:NTL02EC4081; match to protein family HMM TIGR02099.
 
     0.719
minD
Septum site-determining protein MinD; Identified by similarity to SP:P18197; match to protein family HMM PF01656; match to protein family HMM TIGR01968.
