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

minCMinC; Cell division inhibitor that blocks the formation of polar Z ring septums. Rapidly oscillates between the poles of the cell to destabilize FtsZ filaments that have formed before they mature into polar Z rings. Prevents FtsZ polymerization; Belongs to the MinC family. (226 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
minD
ATPase activator of MinC.
 
 
 0.999
mreC
Cell-shape determining protein; Involved in formation and maintenance of cell shape.
  
  
 0.946
ftsZ
Cell-division initiation protein; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity.
   
 
 0.942
mreD
Cell-shape determining protein.
  
  
 0.934
mreB
Cell-shape determining protein.
  
  
 0.788
divIVA
Cell-division initiation protein.
  
  
 0.729
swrB
Motility/swarming protein SwrB.
  
   
 0.707
ylmF
Divisiome protein YlmF; Cell division protein that is part of the divisome complex and is recruited early to the Z-ring. Probably stimulates Z-ring formation, perhaps through the cross-linking of FtsZ protofilaments. Its function overlaps with FtsA.
  
  
 0.649
mraZ
Conserved protein MraZ; Belongs to the MraZ family.
   
  
 0.632
ftsE
Cell-division ATP-binding protein; Part of the ABC transporter FtsEX involved in cellular division.
      
 0.623
