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:
some 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

fhuDiron(3+)-hydroxamate import ABC transporter periplasmic binding protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex FhuCDB involved in iron(3+)-hydroxamate import. Binds the iron(3+)-hydroxamate complex and transfers it to the membrane-bound permease. Required for the transport of all iron(3+)-hydroxamate siderophores such as ferrichrome, gallichrome, desferrioxamine, coprogen, aerobactin, shizokinen, rhodotorulic acid and the antibiotic albomycin (296 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fhuC
Iron(iii) hydroxamate abc transporter atp binding subunit; Part of the ABC transporter complex FhuCDB involved in iron(3+)-hydroxamate import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system
 
 0.999
fhuB
Iron(iii) hydroxamate abc transporter membrane subunit; Part of the ABC transporter complex FhuCDB involved in iron(3+)-hydroxamate import. Responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane
 
 0.999
fhuA
Involved in the uptake of iron in complex with ferrichrome, a hydroxamate-type siderophore. Binds and transports ferrichrome-iron across the outer membrane . In addition to its role in ferrichrome-iron transport, transports the antibiotic albomycin, which is a structural analog of ferrichrome, and acts as a receptor for colicin M, microcin J25 and bacteriophages T1, T5, phi80 and UC-1 The energy source, which is required for all FhuA functions except infection by phage T5, is provided by the inner membrane TonB system
 
  
 0.985
fepB
Ferric enterobactin abc transporter periplasmic binding protein; Binds ferrienterobactin; part of the binding-protein- dependent transport system for uptake of ferrienterobactin
  
 
 0.891
btuF
Vitamin b12 abc transporter periplasmic binding protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex BtuCDF involved in vitamin B12 import. Binds vitamin B12 and delivers it to the periplasmic surface of BtuC
      
 0.877
fepC
Part of the binding-protein-dependent transport system for ferric enterobactin. Probably responsible for energy coupling to the transport system
 
 
 0.849
fecB
Ferric citrate abc transporter periplasmic binding protein; Binds citrate-dependent Fe(3+); part of the binding-protein- dependent transport system for uptake of citrate-dependent Fe(3+)
  
 
 
 0.837
exbD
Membrane spanning protein in tonb-exbb-exbd complex; Involved in the TonB-dependent energy-dependent transport of various receptor-bound substrates
  
 
 0.799
fhuE
Outer-membrane receptor for ferric coprogen and ferric-rhodotorulic acid; Required for the uptake of Fe(3+) via coprogen, ferrioxamine B, and rhodotorulic acid
  
  
 0.782
exbB
Membrane spanning protein in tonb-exbb-exbd complex; Involved in the TonB-dependent energy-dependent transport of various receptor-bound substrates. Protects ExbD from proteolytic degradation and functionally stabilizes TonB
  
 
 0.781
