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

toxRCholera toxin transcriptional activator; This transcription activator controls cholera toxin, pilus colonization factor and outer membrane protein expression in V.cholerae. It binds to the 5'-TTTTGAT-3' tandemly repeated DNA sequence in the cholera toxin promoter region. ToxS interacts with the C-terminal periplasmic domain of ToxR, stimulating its activity. It activates transcription at the promoters for tcpI and tcpA and this is presumably via ToxT. (294 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
toxS
Regulatory protein ToxS; Interacts with ToxR and stimulates its activity.
    
 0.994
ompU
Outer membrane protein OmpU; Forms pores that allow passive diffusion of small molecules across the outer membrane.
  
   
 0.784
ctxA
Cholera enterotoxin, A subunit; The A1 chain catalyzes the ADP-ribosylation of Gs alpha, a GTP-binding regulatory protein, to activate the adenylate cyclase. This leads to an overproduction of cAMP and eventually to a hypersecretion of chloride and bicarbonate followed by water, resulting in the characteristic cholera stool. The A2 chain tethers A1 to the pentameric ring.
      
 0.746
VC_0982
Selenoprotein W-related protein; Similar to SP:O19097; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
       0.686
zot
Zona occludens toxin; Increases the permeability of the small intestine mucosa by affecting the structure of intercellular tight junctions (zonula occludens).
      
 0.683
tcpH
Toxin co-regulated pilus biosynthesis protein H; Involved in TCP pilus biogenesis.
      
 0.679
tcpA
Toxin co-regulated pilin; Constituent of pili, which may be involved in adhesion of V.cholerae to the host intestinal epithelium.
      
 0.624
tcpN
TCP pilus virulence regulatory protein; Probable regulatory protein for the tcp operon.
      
 0.624
tcpP
Toxin co-regulated pilus biosynthesis protein P; Involved in TCP pilus biogenesis.
      
 0.600
VC_1363
Siroheme synthase component enzyme; Similar to PID:576655; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
