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

ygbFTol-pal system protein YbgF; Mediates coordination of peptidoglycan synthesis and outer membrane constriction during cell division; Belongs to the CpoB family. (323 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
tolB-2
tolB protein; Part of the Tol-Pal system, which plays a role in outer membrane invagination during cell division and is important for maintaining outer membrane integrity.
 
  
 0.828
MXAN_5142
Hypothetical protein; Identified by Glimmer2; putative.
       0.773
cheR-3
Chemotaxis protein methyltransferase CheR; Identified by similarity to GB:AAL46996.1; match to protein family HMM PF01739.
       0.773
cheB3
Protein-glutamate methylesterase CheB3; Involved in chemotaxis. Part of a chemotaxis signal transduction system that modulates chemotaxis in response to various stimuli. Catalyzes the demethylation of specific methylglutamate residues introduced into the chemoreceptors (methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins or MCP) by CheR. Also mediates the irreversible deamidation of specific glutamine residues to glutamic acid. Belongs to the CheB family.
       0.773
tolB
Tol-pal system beta propeller repeat protein TolB; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF07676.
 
  
 0.714
rlpA
Putative lipoprotein, RlpA family; Lytic transglycosylase with a strong preference for naked glycan strands that lack stem peptides.
  
 
 0.712
MXAN_1278
Putative lipoprotein.
 
  
 0.681
MXAN_4727
Outer membrane protein, OmpH family; Identified by match to protein family HMM PF03938.
  
  
 0.654
lptD
Putative organic solvent tolerance protein; Involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at the surface of the outer membrane; Belongs to the LptD family.
