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

vapC2Toxin of toxin-antitoxin system; Toxic component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Has ssRNase activity. Upon expression in E.coli or S.cerevisiae inhibits growth in liquid culture; in S.cerevisiae its expression leads to apoptosis-like characteristics. Rapidly induces apoptosis (within 2 hours) upon microinjection into mouse fibroblasts (L929 line); pretreatment of cells with dexamethasone protects them. Probably contributes to host cell death if bacterial cell lysis occurs during host infection. Its toxic effect is neutralized by coexpression with cognate antitoxin VapB2, its [...] (134 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
vapB2
Antitoxin of toxin-antitoxin system VapB; Antitoxin component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Upon expression in E.coli or S.cerevisiae neutralizes the effect of cognate toxin VapC2, partially inhibits the RNase activity of VapC2. Belongs to the VapB family.
