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

Score
sfmFFima homolog, function unknown; Part of the sfmACDHF fimbrial operon. Could contribute to adhesion to various surfaces in specific environmental niches. Increases adhesion to eukaryotic T24 bladder epithelial cells in the absence of fim genes (171 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sfmH
Putative fimbrial adhesin protein sfmh; Part of the sfmACDHF fimbrial operon. Could contribute to adhesion to various surfaces in specific environmental niches. Increases adhesion to eukaryotic T24 bladder epithelial cells in the absence of fim genes
 
  
 0.997
sfmC
Putative periplasmic pilus chaperone; Part of the sfmACDHF fimbrial operon. Could contribute to adhesion to various surfaces in specific environmental niches. Increases adhesion to eukaryotic T24 bladder epithelial cells in the absence of fim genes
 
  
 0.991
fimC
Type 1 fimbriae periplasmic chaperone; Required for the biogenesis of type 1 fimbriae. Binds and interact with FimH
 
  
 0.991
fimH
Involved in regulation of length and mediation of adhesion of type 1 fimbriae (but not necessary for the production of fimbriae). Adhesin responsible for the binding to D-mannose. It is laterally positioned at intervals in the structure of the type 1 fimbriae. In order to integrate FimH in the fimbriae FimF and FimG are needed
      
 0.968
sfmD
Putative outer membrane export usher protein; Part of the sfmACDHF fimbrial operon. Could contribute to adhesion to various surfaces in specific environmental niches. Increases adhesion to eukaryotic T24 bladder epithelial cells in the absence of fim genes. Probably involved in the export and assembly of fimbrial subunits across the outer membrane
 
    0.939
yfaL
Putative autotransporter adhesin yfal; Probably an autotransporter
   
 
 0.877
sfmZ
Two-component system, narl family, response regulator, fimbrial z protein, fimz; Fimbrial Z protein; probable signal transducer; Protein involved in transcription activator activity and transcription
  
 
 0.828
ygiL
Putative fimbrial-like adhesin protein; Putative fimbrial-like protein
  
     0.751
elfA
Putative laminin-binding fimbrial subunit; Part of the elfADCG-ycbUVF fimbrial operon, which promotes adhesion of bacteria to different abiotic surfaces. ElfA is the major fimbrial subunit produced by this operon
  
     0.739
yqiH
Putative periplasmic pilin chaperone; Could be required for the biogenesis of a putative fimbria
  
     0.732
