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.

infBTranslation initiation factor eaIF-5B; Function in general translation initiation by promoting the binding of the formylmethionine-tRNA to ribosomes. Seems to function along with eIF-2. (597 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpl2
LSU ribosomal protein L2P; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins. Required for association of the 30S and 50S subunits to form the 70S ribosome, for tRNA binding and peptide bond formation. It has been suggested to have peptidyltransferase activity; this is somewhat controversial. Makes several contacts with the 16S rRNA in the 70S ribosome. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL2 family.
 
 0.992
rps5
SSU ribosomal protein S5P; With S4 and S12 plays an important role in translational accuracy.
 
 0.986
rpl10e
PFAM: ribosomal protein L10E; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL16 family.
 
 0.986
rps2
PFAM: ribosomal protein S2; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS2 family.
 
 0.986
rps11
SSU ribosomal protein S11P; Located on the platform of the 30S subunit. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS11 family.
 
 0.986
rpl15
LSU ribosomal protein L15P; Binds to the 23S rRNA; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL15 family.
 
 0.985
rpl7ae
LSU ribosomal protein L7AE; Multifunctional RNA-binding protein that recognizes the K- turn motif in ribosomal RNA, the RNA component of RNase P, box H/ACA, box C/D and box C'/D' sRNAs.
 
 
 0.983
rps3
SSU ribosomal protein S3P; Binds the lower part of the 30S subunit head. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS3 family.
 
 
 0.982
rpl11
LSU ribosomal protein L11P; Forms part of the ribosomal stalk which helps the ribosome interact with GTP-bound translation factors; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL11 family.
 
 0.981
rpl1
LSU ribosomal protein L1P; Binds directly to 23S rRNA. Probably involved in E site tRNA release.
 
 0.981
