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

MCA2772Conserved hypothetical protein; Activator of cell division through the inhibition of FtsZ GTPase activity, therefore promoting FtsZ assembly into bundles of protofilaments necessary for the formation of the division Z ring. It is recruited early at mid-cell but it is not essential for cell division. (97 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pepP
Xaa-pro aminopeptidase; Identified by similarity to SP:P15034; match to protein family HMM PF00557; match to protein family HMM PF05195; Belongs to the peptidase M24B family.
 
   
 0.786
MCA3090
Conserved domain protein; Identified by similarity to OMNI:NTL03PA05053; match to protein family HMM PF05036.
  
   
 0.745
ftsL
Putative cell division protein FtsL; 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.
  
   
 0.738
ihfA
Integration host factor, alpha subunit; This protein is one of the two subunits of integration host factor, a specific DNA-binding protein that functions in genetic recombination as well as in transcriptional and translational control. Belongs to the bacterial histone-like protein family.
   
    0.709
MCA1054
Putative outer membrane lipoprotein LolB; Plays a critical role in the incorporation of lipoproteins in the outer membrane after they are released by the LolA protein.
  
     0.690
MCA2337
Putative TonB-dependent receptor; Identified by similarity to GP:17429800; match to protein family HMM TIGR01352.
 
     0.674
MCA2439
Putative cell division protein ZipA; Essential cell division protein that stabilizes the FtsZ protofilaments by cross-linking them and that serves as a cytoplasmic membrane anchor for the Z ring. Also required for the recruitment to the septal ring of downstream cell division proteins. Belongs to the ZipA family.
 
   
 0.672
MCA2771
Conserved hypothetical protein; Identified by similarity to SP:Q9HTW5; match to protein family HMM TIGR02292; Belongs to the UPF0149 family.
  
  
 0.657
mreD
Rod 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.
  
   
 0.651
ubiH
2-octaprenyl-6-methoxyphenol hydroxylase; Identified by similarity to SP:P25534; match to protein family HMM PF01360; match to protein family HMM TIGR01984; match to protein family HMM TIGR01988.
