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.

Score
mecAAdaptor protein MecA; Enables the recognition and targeting of unfolded and aggregated proteins to the ClpC protease or to other proteins involved in proteolysis. Acts negatively in the development of competence by binding ComK and recruiting it to the ClpCP protease. When overexpressed, inhibits sporulation. Also involved in Spx degradation by ClpC. (212 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
clpC
Class III stress response-related ATPase; Belongs to the ClpA/ClpB family.
    
 
 0.989
clpE
ATP-dependent Clp protease-like (class III stress gene) ClpE; Belongs to the ClpA/ClpB family.
    
 
 0.923
comK
Competence transcription factor ComK.
  
   
 0.916
clpP
ATP-dependent Clp protease proteolytic subunit (class III heat-shock protein); Cleaves peptides in various proteins in a process that requires ATP hydrolysis. Has a chymotrypsin-like activity. Plays a major role in the degradation of misfolded proteins. ClpXP1 is involved in the complete degradation of the Site-2 clipped anti-sigma-W factor RsiW. This results in the release of SigW and the transcription activation of the genes under the control of the sigma-W factor (By similarity); Belongs to the peptidase S14 family.
   
 
 0.832
bdbC
Thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase; Required for disulfide bond formation in some proteins. Belongs to the DsbB family. BdbC subfamily.
      
 0.693
yjbH
Conserved protein YjbH; Belongs to the UPF0413 family.
  
  
 0.657
yjbF
Conserved protein YjbF.
 
   
 0.648
ytkD
Putative hydrolase YtkD; Belongs to the Nudix hydrolase family.
  
     0.645
ytpQ
Conserved protein YtpQ; Belongs to the UPF0354 family.
  
     0.624
yabA
DnaA and DnaN interacting protein containing domain DUF972- YabA; Involved in initiation control of chromosome replication. Belongs to the YabA family.
  
     0.621
