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

Score
flcFluoride efflux channel, dual topology membrane protein; Important for reducing fluoride concentration in the cell, thus reducing its toxicity. (127 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rluC
23S rRNA pseudouridine(955,2504,2580) synthase; Responsible for synthesis of pseudouridine from uracil at positions 955, 2504 and 2580 in 23S ribosomal RNA.
     
 0.966
clcA
H(+)/Cl(-) exchange transporter; Proton-coupled chloride transporter. Functions as antiport system and exchanges two chloride ions for 1 proton. Probably acts as an electrical shunt for an outwardly-directed proton pump that is linked to amino acid decarboxylation, as part of the extreme acid resistance (XAR) response.
     
 0.750
lacZ
beta-D-galactosidase; Protein involved in carbohydrate catabolic process; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 2 family.
      
 0.731
malE
Maltose transporter subunit; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Binds maltose and higher maltodextrins such as maltotriose. Belongs to the bacterial solute-binding protein 1 family.
      
 0.704
ebgA
Evolved beta-D-galactosidase, alpha subunit; The wild-type enzyme is an ineffective lactase. Two classes of point mutations dramatically improve activity of the enzyme; Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 2 family.
      
 0.621
yciQ
Enhancer of membrane protein expression; putative inner membrane protein.
   
    0.536
yohK
LrgB family inner membrane protein; Putative seritonin transporter.
   
    0.533
dnaK
Chaperone Hsp70, with co-chaperone DnaJ; Plays an essential role in the initiation of phage lambda DNA replication, where it acts in an ATP-dependent fashion with the DnaJ protein to release lambda O and P proteins from the preprimosomal complex. DnaK is also involved in chromosomal DNA replication, possibly through an analogous interaction with the DnaA protein. Also participates actively in the response to hyperosmotic shock.
      
 0.529
gstA
Glutathionine S-transferase; Catalyzes the conjugation of reduced glutathione (GSH) to a wide number of exogenous and endogenous hydrophobic electrophiles. Shows activity toward 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) and ethacrynic acid. Also possesses thiol:disulfide oxidoreductase activity, using GSH to reduce bis-(2-hydroxyethyl) disulfide (HEDS). Has a low level of glutathione-dependent peroxidase activity toward cumene hydroperoxide. Is important for defense against oxidative stress, probably via its peroxidase activity. Belongs to the GST superfamily. Beta family.

yjdF
DUF2238 family inner membrane protein.
      
 0.455
