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

ftsZCell division GTPase; 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. (311 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ftsA
Actin-like ATPase involved in cell division; Cell division protein that is involved in the assembly of the Z ring. May serve as a membrane anchor for the Z ring. Belongs to the FtsA/MreB family.
 
 0.998
secA
Preprotein translocase subunit SecA; Part of the Sec protein translocase complex. Interacts with the SecYEG preprotein conducting channel. Has a central role in coupling the hydrolysis of ATP to the transfer of proteins into and across the cell membrane, serving both as a receptor for the preprotein-SecB complex and as an ATP-driven molecular motor driving the stepwise translocation of polypeptide chains across the membrane. Belongs to the SecA family.
 
 0.882
mamX
Hypothetical protein; Required for correct biomineralization of the magnetosome, may be involved in redox control of biomineralization. May function with MamY, MamZ amd Mms6.
     
 0.855
mamZ
Permease of the major facilitator superfamily; Required for correct biomineralization of the magnetosome; probably converts and then transports some form of iron. It is partially functionally redundant with MamH. May function with MamX, MamY amd Mms6.
     
 0.852
murG
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:LPS N-acetylglucosamine transferase; Cell wall formation. Catalyzes the transfer of a GlcNAc subunit on undecaprenyl-pyrophosphoryl-MurNAc-pentapeptide (lipid intermediate I) to form undecaprenyl-pyrophosphoryl-MurNAc- (pentapeptide)GlcNAc (lipid intermediate II); Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 28 family. MurG subfamily.
 
 
 0.772
mamK
Actin-like ATPase; Protein with ATPase activity which forms dynamic cytoplasmic filaments (probably with paralog MamK-like) that organize magnetosomes into long chains running parallel to the long axis of the cell (Probable). Turnover of MamK filaments is probably promoted by MamK-like, which provides a monomer pool. Forms twisted filaments in the presence of ATP or GTP. Serves to close gaps between magnetosomes in the chain. Interaction with MCP10 is involved in controlling the response to magnetic fields, possibly by controlling flagellar rotation. Expression in E.coli yields a filam [...]
  
 
 0.766
recA
RecA protein; Can catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP in the presence of single- stranded DNA, the ATP-dependent uptake of single-stranded DNA by duplex DNA, and the ATP-dependent hybridization of homologous single-stranded DNAs. It interacts with LexA causing its activation and leading to its autocatalytic cleavage; Belongs to the RecA family.
 
 
 
 0.764
mamY
Methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein; Causes tubulation when added to magnetosome-derived liposomes, binds liposomes; may be involved in constriction of the cell inner membrane to form mature magnetosomes. Binds preferentially to cardiolipin, a component of bacterial membranes, with very poor to no binding of other tested (phospho)lipids. Addition of cardiolipin to magnetosome-derived lipids increases tubulation. May function with MamX, MamZ amd Mms6 (By similarity).
     
 0.763
lpxC
UDP-3-O-acyl-N-acetylglucosamine deacetylase; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of UDP-3-O-myristoyl-N- acetylglucosamine to form UDP-3-O-myristoylglucosamine and acetate, the committed step in lipid A biosynthesis; Belongs to the LpxC family.
