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

stu0257Conserved hypothetical protein. (173 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
stu0256
Conserved hypothetical protein; Pyrophosphatase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleoside triphosphates to their monophosphate derivatives, with a high preference for the non-canonical purine nucleotides XTP (xanthosine triphosphate), dITP (deoxyinosine triphosphate) and ITP. Seems to function as a house-cleaning enzyme that removes non-canonical purine nucleotides from the nucleotide pool, thus preventing their incorporation into DNA/RNA and avoiding chromosomal lesions. Belongs to the HAM1 NTPase family.
  
  
 0.938
stu0258
Conserved hypothetical protein.
 
     0.850
scpB
Conserved hypothetical protein; Participates in chromosomal partition during cell division. May act via the formation of a condensin-like complex containing Smc and ScpA that pull DNA away from mid-cell into both cell halves.
  
    0.807
glr
Glutamate racemase; Provides the (R)-glutamate required for cell wall biosynthesis.
       0.800
xer2
Integrase/recombinase, tyrosine family; Putative tyrosine recombinase. Not involved in the cutting and rejoining of the recombining DNA molecules on dif(SL) site. Belongs to the 'phage' integrase family. XerD-like subfamily.
       0.800
scpA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Participates in chromosomal partition during cell division. May act via the formation of a condensin-like complex containing Smc and ScpB that pull DNA away from mid-cell into both cell halves.
       0.800
rluB
Ribosomal large subunit pseudouridine synthase B; Belongs to the pseudouridine synthase RsuA family.
     
 0.660
stu0263
Conserved hypothetical protein; Could be involved in insertion of integral membrane proteins into the membrane; Belongs to the UPF0161 family.
       0.659
stu0254
Conserved hypothetical protein.
       0.630
