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.
Known Interactions
from curated databases
experimentally determined
Predicted Interactions
gene neighborhood
gene fusions
gene co-occurrence
Others
textmining
co-expression
protein homology

lonATP-dependent protease LA; ATP-dependent serine protease that mediates the selective degradation of mutant and abnormal proteins as well as certain short- lived regulatory proteins. Required for cellular homeostasis and for survival from DNA damage and developmental changes induced by stress. Degrades polypeptides processively to yield small peptide fragments that are 5 to 10 amino acids long. Binds to DNA in a double-stranded, site-specific manner. (787 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
hslU
Heat shock protein HslU; ATPase subunit of a proteasome-like degradation complex; this subunit has chaperone activity. The binding of ATP and its subsequent hydrolysis by HslU are essential for unfolding of protein substrates subsequently hydrolyzed by HslV. HslU recognizes the N-terminal part of its protein substrates and unfolds these before they are guided to HslV for hydrolysis.

groL
groEL protein; Prevents misfolding and promotes the refolding and proper assembly of unfolded polypeptides generated under stress conditions.
  
 0.826
grpE
grpE protein, putative; Participates actively in the response to hyperosmotic and heat shock by preventing the aggregation of stress-denatured proteins, in association with DnaK and GrpE. It is the nucleotide exchange factor for DnaK and may function as a thermosensor. Unfolded proteins bind initially to DnaJ; upon interaction with the DnaJ-bound protein, DnaK hydrolyzes its bound ATP, resulting in the formation of a stable complex. GrpE releases ADP from DnaK; ATP binding to DnaK triggers the release of the substrate protein, thus completing the reaction cycle. Several rounds of ATP-d [...]

TM_1634
Hypothetical protein; Identified by sequence similarity; putative.
       0.810
sbcD
Exonuclease, putative; SbcCD cleaves DNA hairpin structures. These structures can inhibit DNA replication and are intermediates in certain DNA recombination reactions. The complex acts as a 3'->5' double strand exonuclease that can open hairpins. It also has a 5' single-strand endonuclease activity; Belongs to the SbcD family.
       0.810
rad50
Conserved hypothetical protein; Involved in DNA double-strand break repair (DSBR). The Rad50/Mre11 complex possesses single-strand endonuclease activity and ATP-dependent double-strand-specific 3'-5' exonuclease activity. Rad50 provides an ATP-dependent control of Mre11 by unwinding and/or repositioning DNA ends into the Mre11 active site (By similarity).

TM_1637
Hypothetical protein; Identified by sequence similarity; putative.
       0.810
hslV
Heat shock protein HslV; Protease subunit of a proteasome-like degradation complex believed to be a general protein degrading machinery. Belongs to the peptidase T1B family. HslV subfamily.
   
  
 0.804
TM_1632
Conserved hypothetical protein; Similar to GP:1945107 percent identity: 60.53; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
       0.795
clpX
ATP-dependent Clp protease, ATPase subunit clpX; ATP-dependent specificity component of the Clp protease. It directs the protease to specific substrates. Can perform chaperone functions in the absence of ClpP.
