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

minCSeptum site-determining protein MinC; 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. (240 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
AKN62011.1
Septum site-determining protein MinD; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
 
 
 0.999
ftsZ
Cell division protein FtsZ; 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.
   
 
 0.951
minE
Cell division topological specificity factor MinE; Prevents the cell division inhibition by proteins MinC and MinD at internal division sites while permitting inhibition at polar sites. This ensures cell division at the proper site by restricting the formation of a division septum at the midpoint of the long axis of the cell.

AKN61678.1
Rod shape-determining protein MreC; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
  
 0.878
AKN61679.1
Membrane protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.

AKN62459.1
Peptidase S41; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the peptidase S41A family.
 
    0.796
AKN62013.1
HD family phosphohydrolase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
       0.759
AKN62009.1
LuxR family transcriptional regulator; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
       0.675
petB
Cytochrome b6; Component of the cytochrome b6-f complex, which mediates electron transfer between photosystem II (PSII) and photosystem I (PSI), cyclic electron flow around PSI, and state transitions.
  
  
 0.609
sepF
Cell division protein SepF; 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.
