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

lptCHypothetical protein; Involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Required for the translocation of LPS from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. Facilitates the transfer of LPS from the inner membrane to the periplasmic protein LptA. Could be a docking site for LptA. Belongs to the LptC family. (187 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
VC_2528
ABC transporter, ATP-binding protein; Similar to PID:2317737; identified by sequence similarity; putative.
  
 
 0.998
VC_2499
Conserved hypothetical protein; Identified by Glimmer2; putative.
 
 
 0.996
VC_2500
Conserved hypothetical protein; Identified by Glimmer2; putative.
 
 
 0.996
lptA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Required for the translocation of LPS from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. May form a bridge between the inner membrane and the outer membrane, via interactions with LptC and LptD, thereby facilitating LPS transfer across the periplasm.
 
 
 0.996
VC_2524
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate 8- phosphate (KDO 8-P) to 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate (KDO) and inorganic phosphate; Belongs to the KdsC family.

VC_2523
Conserved hypothetical protein; Identified by Glimmer2; putative.
  
  
 0.880
lptE
Rare lipoprotein B; Together with LptD, is involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at the surface of the outer membrane. Required for the proper assembly of LptD. Binds LPS and may serve as the LPS recognition site at the outer membrane.
  
  
 0.873
lptD
Organic solvent tolerance protein; Together with LptE, is involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at the surface of the outer membrane.
 
  
 0.871
yihI
Conserved hypothetical protein; A GTPase-activating protein (GAP) that modifies Der/EngA GTPase function. May play a role in ribosome biogenesis. Belongs to the YihI family.
  
   
 0.794
VC_0648
Conserved hypothetical protein; May be involved in cell division.
