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

hspQHeat shock protein involved in degradation of mutant DnaA; Involved in the degradation of certain denaturated proteins, including DnaA, during heat shock stress. (105 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rlmI
23S rRNA m(5)C1962 methyltransferase, SAM-dependent; Specifically methylates the cytosine at position 1962 (m5C1962) of 23S rRNA. Methylation occurs before assembly of 23S rRNA into 50S subunits; Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. RlmI family.
      0.865
wecF
TDP-Fuc4NAc:lipidIIFuc4NAc transferase; Catalyzes the synthesis of Und-PP-GlcNAc-ManNAcA-Fuc4NAc (Lipid III), the third lipid-linked intermediate involved in ECA synthesis; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 56 family.
  
   
 0.753
wecD
TDP-fucosamine acetyltransferase; Catalyzes the acetylation of dTDP-fucosamine (dTDP-4-amino- 4,6-dideoxy-D-galactose) to dTDP-Fuc4NAc, which is utilized in the biosynthesis of the enterobacterial common antigen (ECA). Belongs to the WecD family.
  
     0.749
lptC
Periplasmic membrane-anchored LPS-binding protein; Involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Required for the translocation of LPS from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. Facilitates the transfer of LPS from the inner membrane to the periplasmic protein LptA. Could be a docking site for LptA. Belongs to the LptC family.
  
    0.723
mscM
Mechanosensitive channel protein, miniconductance; Mechanosensitive channel that protects cells against hypoosmotic stress when highly overexpressed. Gates spontaneously in response to increased membrane tension.
  
   
 0.693
wzxE
O-antigen translocase; Mediates the transbilayer movement of Und-PP-GlcNAc-ManNAcA- Fuc4NAc (lipid III) from the inner to the outer leaflet of the cytoplasmic membrane during the assembly of enterobacterial common antigen (ECA). Required for the assembly of the phosphoglyceride-linked form of ECA (ECA(PG)) and the water-soluble cyclic form of ECA (ECA(CYC)). Could also mediate the translocation of Und-PP-GlcNAc.
  
     0.686
tusE
mnm(5)-s(2)U34-tRNA 2-thiolation sulfurtransferase; Part of a sulfur-relay system required for 2-thiolation of 5- methylaminomethyl-2-thiouridine (mnm(5)s(2)U) at tRNA wobble positions. Could accept sulfur from TusD.
 
    0.679
yccU
Putative CoA-binding protein.
   
  
 0.662
ompN
Outer membrane pore protein N, non-specific; Forms pores that allow passive diffusion of small molecules across the outer membrane (By similarity). Non-specific porin.
  
     0.615
ompC
Outer membrane porin protein C; Forms pores that allow passive diffusion of small molecules across the outer membrane. (Microbial infection) A mixed OmpC-OmpF heterotrimer is the outer membrane receptor for toxin CdiA-EC536; polymorphisms in extracellular loops 4 and 5 of OmpC confer susceptibility to CdiA- EC536-mediated toxicity; Belongs to the Gram-negative porin family.
