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

gyrBDNA gyrase, subunit B (gyrB); A type II topoisomerase that negatively supercoils closed circular double-stranded (ds) DNA in an ATP-dependent manner to modulate DNA topology and maintain chromosomes in an underwound state. Negative supercoiling favors strand separation, and DNA replication, transcription, recombination and repair, all of which involve strand separation. Also able to catalyze the interconversion of other topological isomers of dsDNA rings, including catenanes and knotted rings. Type II topoisomerases break and join 2 DNA strands simultaneously in an ATP-dependent manner. (637 aa)

TP_0136
Predicted coding region TP0136; Hypothetical protein; identified by Glimmer; putative.

TP_0405
mcbG protein, putative; Similar to SP:P05530 GB:X07875 PID:41983 percent identity: 23.94; identified by sequence similarity; putative.

recF
recF protein (recF); The RecF protein is involved in DNA metabolism; it is required for DNA replication and normal SOS inducibility. RecF binds preferentially to single-stranded, linear DNA. It also seems to bind ATP (By similarity).
  
  
 0.915
dnaN
DNA polymerase III, subunit beta (dnaN); Confers DNA tethering and processivity to DNA polymerases and other proteins. Acts as a clamp, forming a ring around DNA (a reaction catalyzed by the clamp-loading complex) which diffuses in an ATP- independent manner freely and bidirectionally along dsDNA. Initially characterized for its ability to contact the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase III (Pol III), a complex, multichain enzyme responsible for most of the replicative synthesis in bacteria; Pol III exhibits 3'-5' exonuclease proofreading activity. The beta chain is required for initia [...]

nrdA
Ribonucleoside-diphosphate reductase, subunit alpha (nrdA); Provides the precursors necessary for DNA synthesis. Catalyzes the biosynthesis of deoxyribonucleotides from the corresponding ribonucleotides (By similarity).
  
  
 0.826
polA
DNA polymerase I (polA); In addition to polymerase activity, this DNA polymerase exhibits 3'-5' and 5'-3' exonuclease activity; Belongs to the DNA polymerase type-A family.

recQ
ATP-dependent DNA helicase, putative; Similar to GB:M87049 SP:P15043 GB:M30198 PID:147559 PID:148221 percent identity: 38.81; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
  
 
 0.766
metG
methionyl-tRNA synthetase (metG); Is required not only for elongation of protein synthesis but also for the initiation of all mRNA translation through initiator tRNA(fMet) aminoacylation.
  
  
 0.758
dnaG
DNA primase (dnaG); RNA polymerase that catalyzes the synthesis of short RNA molecules used as primers for DNA polymerase during DNA replication.
