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

smcChromosome seggregation Smc protein; Required for chromosome condensation and partitioning. Belongs to the SMC family. (1186 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
scpA
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.
 
 
 0.986
ftsY
Signal recognition particle-docking protein FtsY; Involved in targeting and insertion of nascent membrane proteins into the cytoplasmic membrane. Acts as a receptor for the complex formed by the signal recognition particle (SRP) and the ribosome-nascent chain (RNC).
   0.927
scpB
Segregation and condensation protein B; 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.
 
 
 0.846
rncS
Ribonuclease (RNase III); Digests double-stranded RNA. Involved in the processing of primary rRNA transcript to yield the immediate precursors to the large and small rRNAs (23S and 16S). Processes some mRNAs, and tRNAs when they are encoded in the rRNA operon. Processes pre-crRNA and tracrRNA of type II CRISPR loci if present in the organism.
  
   0.836
ffh
Signal recognition particle protein Ffh; Involved in targeting and insertion of nascent membrane proteins into the cytoplasmic membrane. Binds to the hydrophobic signal sequence of the ribosome-nascent chain (RNC) as it emerges from the ribosomes. The SRP-RNC complex is then targeted to the cytoplasmic membrane where it interacts with the SRP receptor FtsY. Belongs to the GTP-binding SRP family. SRP54 subfamily.
   0.797
LCA_0710
5 Proteins of unknown function that are similar to other proteins.
       0.757
LCA_0713
Hypothetical protein; Might take part in the signal recognition particle (SRP) pathway. This is inferred from the conservation of its genetic proximity to ftsY/ffh. May be a regulatory protein.
  
    0.660
oppF
Oligopeptide ABC transporter, ATP-binding subunit; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily.
       0.584
parE
Topoisomerase IV, subunit B; Topoisomerase IV is essential for chromosome segregation. It relaxes supercoiled DNA. Performs the decatenation events required during the replication of a circular DNA molecule; Belongs to the type II topoisomerase family. ParE type 2 subfamily.
  
 
 0.579
oppD
Oligopeptide ABC transporter, ATP-binding subunit; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily.
