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.

[Homology]
Score
ynfAConserved membrane protein of unknown function, UPF0060; Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function. (113 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
merR
Mercuric resistance operon regulatory protein; Function of homologous gene experimentally demonstrated in an other organism; regulator.
       0.782
merT
Mercury ion transport protein; Function of strongly homologous gene; transporter.
       0.562
NIDE0067
Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
       0.562
merP
Periplasmic mercury ion binding protein; Involved in mercury resistance. Acts as a mercury scavenger that specifically binds to a mercuric ion in the periplasm and probably passes it to the cytoplasmic mercuric reductase MerA via the mercuric transport protein MerT.
