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

ykfGCP4-6 prophage; RadC-like JAB domain-containing protein YkfG; Belongs to the UPF0758 family (158 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yafX
Uncharacterized protein YafX; Phage or Prophage Related; Belongs to the antirestriction protein family
 
  
 0.985
ykfH
DUF987 domain-containing protein YkfH; Belongs to the YeeT/YkfH/YpjJ family
   
 0.985
yafW
Cytoskeleton bundling-enhancing protein cbea and related proteins; Antitoxin component of a type IV toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Antitoxin that counteracts the effect of cognate toxin YkfI . It does not seem to bind to the cognate toxin but instead induces toxin loss by an unknown mechanism . Co-overexpression of toxin YkfI and antitoxin YafW leads to formation of elongated cells
 
  
 0.955
ykfI
CP4-6 prophage; toxin of the YkfI-YafW toxin-antitoxin system; Toxic component of a type IV toxin-antitoxin (TA) system . Acts as a toxin inhibitor that blocks cell division and cell elongation via FtsZ and possibly also MreB (although no interaction with MreB has been proven) . Overexpression results in inhibition of growth in liquid cultures and a decrease in colony formation These effects are overcome by concomitant expression of cognate antitoxin YafW, which leads to toxin loss by an unknown mechanism . Overexpression leads to formation of lemon-shaped cells and cell lysis; inactiv [...]
