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

yafSPutative S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase. (240 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yafE
Putative S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase; Putative biotin synthesis protein; Protein involved in biotin biosynthetic process; Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily.
   
  
 0.905
yjhP
Uncharacterized protein YjhP; Pseudogene, zinc finger protein family.
     
 0.895
gloB
Hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase; Type II glyoxalase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of (R)-S- lactoylglutathione to (R)-lactate and glutathione. Is more efficient than the isozyme GloC, and plays a major contribution to methylglyoxal (MG) detoxification in E.coli. The two isoenzymes have additive effects and ensure maximal MG degradation.
  
  
 0.851
rseB
Anti-sigma E factor, binds RseA; Negatively modulates the activity of sigma-E (RpoE) by stabilizing RseA under non-stress conditions. Although not essential for association of sigma-E with Rsea it increases their affinity 2- to 3-fold. When bound to RseA it prevents proteolysis by DegS, which is probably relieved by lipopolysaccharide binding (LPS). Belongs to the RseB family.
  
     0.751
yejL
UPF0352 family protein; Belongs to the UPF0352 family.
  
     0.724
mltD
Putative membrane-bound lytic murein transglycosylase D; Murein-degrading enzyme. May play a role in recycling of muropeptides during cell elongation and/or cell division (By similarity); Belongs to the transglycosylase Slt family.
     
 0.709
yqiC
BMFP family putative fusogenic protein; Required for efficient ubiquinone (coenzyme Q) biosynthesis under aerobic conditions. UbiK is probably an accessory factor of Ubi enzymes and facilitates ubiquinone biosynthesis by acting as an assembly factor, a targeting factor, or both. Dispensable for ubiquinone biosynthesis under anaerobiosis.
  
     0.685
smtA
Putative S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase; Catalyzes the methylation of 5-carboxymethoxyuridine (cmo5U) to form 5-methoxycarbonylmethoxyuridine (mcmo5U) at position 34 in tRNAs. Four tRNAs (tRNA(Ala1), tRNA(Ser1), tRNA(Pro3) and tRNA(Thr4)) are fully modified with mcmo5U in stationary-phase E.coli. Also present at low frequency in tRNA(Leu3) and tRNA(Val1).
    
 
 0.668
ymfD
E14 prophage; putative SAM-dependent methyltransferase.
    
 
 0.649
yjtD
Putative methyltransferase; Protein involved in RNA modification; Belongs to the class IV-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. RNA methyltransferase TrmH family.
   
  
 0.643
