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

rcdATranscriptional regulator of csgD and ybiJI; Regulates the expression of a number of genes involved in biofilm formation and stress response. Target genes include six stress- response transcriptional regulators: csgD, which is a master regulator of biofilm formation, appY, sxy, ycgF, fimB and rcdA itself. This indicates that a large number of genes must be regulated indirectly via these transcriptional regulators. Acts by binding to the upstream region of its target genes. (178 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ybjJ
Putative drug efflux MFS transporter, inner membrane protein; Putative DEOR-type transcriptional regulator.

kduI
Hexuronate isomerase; Catalyzes the isomerization of 5-dehydro-4-deoxy-D- glucuronate to 3-deoxy-D-glycero-2,5-hexodiulosonate (By similarity). Plays a role in the catabolism of hexuronates under osmotic stress conditions, likely substituting for the regular hexuronate degrading enzyme UxaC whose expression is repressed in these conditions ; Belongs to the KduI family.

tufB
Translation elongation factor EF-Tu 2; This protein promotes the GTP-dependent binding of aminoacyl- tRNA to the A-site of ribosomes during protein biosynthesis. Plays a stimulatory role in trans-translation, binds tmRNA. (Microbial infection) Upon infection by bacteriophage Qbeta, part of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase complex. With EF-Ts may provide a stabilizing scaffold for the beta (catalytic) subunit. Helps separate the double-stranded RNA of the template and growing RNA during elongation. With the beta subunit helps form the exit tunnel for template RNA. The GTPase acti [...]

parC
DNA topoisomerase IV, subunit A; Topoisomerase IV is essential for chromosome segregation; it is the principal protein responsible for decatenating newly replicated chromosomes. It relaxes supercoiled DNA. MukB stimulates the relaxation activity of topoisomerase IV and also has a modest effect on decatenation. Belongs to the type II topoisomerase GyrA/ParC subunit family. ParC type 1 subfamily.

ybjI
5-amino-6-(5-phospho-D-ribitylamino)uracil phosphatase; Catalyzes the dephosphorylation of 5-amino-6-(5-phospho-D- ribitylamino)uracil, and thus could be involved in the riboflavin biosynthesis pathway. Is also able to dephosphorylate flavin mononucleotide (FMN), erythrose 4-phosphate and other phosphoric acid esters. Belongs to the HAD-like hydrolase superfamily. Cof family.

cspC
Stress protein, member of the CspA-family; Cold shock protein; Protein involved in transcription activator activity, transcription and response to temperature stimulus.

tufA
Translation elongation factor EF-Tu 1; This protein promotes the GTP-dependent binding of aminoacyl- tRNA to the A-site of ribosomes during protein biosynthesis. Plays a stimulatory role in trans-translation; binds tmRNA. (Microbial infection) Upon infection by bacteriophage Qbeta, part of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase complex. With EF-Ts may provide a stabilizing scaffold for the beta (catalytic) subunit. Helps separate the double-stranded RNA of the template and growing RNA during elongation. With the beta subunit helps form the exit tunnel for template RNA. (Microbial infe [...]

minE
Cell division topological specificity factor; Prevents the cell division inhibition by proteins MinC and MinD at internal division sites while permitting inhibition at polar sites. This ensures cell division at the proper site by restricting the formation of a division septum at the midpoint of the long axis of the cell.
