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

efeOIron uptake system component EfeO; Involved in Fe(2+) uptake. Could be an iron-binding and/or electron-transfer component. (375 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
efeB
Deferrrochelatase, periplasmic; Involved in the recovery of exogenous heme iron. Extracts iron from heme while preserving the tetrapyrrol ring intact. Also displays peroxidase activity on guaiacol in vitro.
 
  
 0.999
yncE
ATP-binding protein, periplasmic, function unknown; Putative receptor.
   
  
 0.850
yfeX
Porphyrinogen oxidase, cytoplasmic; Has both general peroxidase activity and dye-decolorizing activity. Can catalyze the oxidation of both protoporphyrinogen IX and coproporphyrinogen III to their corresponding porphyrins. Also efficiently decolorizes the dyes alizarin red and Cibacron blue F3GA.
  
  
 0.793
fiu
Catecholate siderophore receptor; Involved in the active transport across the outer membrane of iron complexed with catecholate siderophores such as dihydroxybenzoylserine and dihydroxybenzoate. It derives its energy for transport by interacting with the trans-periplasmic membrane protein TonB. Can also transport catechol-substituted cephalosporins. Receptor for microcins M, H47 and E492.
   
  
 0.777
fepA
Ferrienterobactin outer membrane transporter; This protein is involved in the initial step of iron uptake by binding ferrienterobactin (Fe-ENT), an iron chelatin siderophore that allows E.coli to extract iron from the environment. FepA also acts as a receptor for colicins B and D.
   
  
 0.632
fhuF
Ferric iron reductase involved in ferric hydroximate transport; Involved in the reduction of ferric iron in cytoplasmic ferrioxamine B.
  
  
 0.614
fepB
Ferrienterobactin ABC transporter periplasmic binding protein; Binds ferrienterobactin; part of the binding-protein- dependent transport system for uptake of ferrienterobactin.
   
  
 0.602
entE
2,3-dihydroxybenzoate-AMP ligase component of enterobactin synthase multienzyme complex; Involved in the biosynthesis of the siderophore enterobactin (enterochelin), which is a macrocyclic trimeric lactone of N-(2,3- dihydroxybenzoyl)-serine. The serine trilactone serves as a scaffolding for the three catechol functionalities that provide hexadentate coordination for the tightly ligated iron(2+) atoms. EntE proccesses via a two-step adenylation-ligation reaction (bi-uni-uni-bi ping-pong mechanism). First, it catalyzes the activation of the carboxylate group of 2,3-dihydroxy-benzoate (D [...]
   
  
 0.586
exbD
Membrane spanning protein in TonB-ExbB-ExbD complex; Involved in the TonB-dependent energy-dependent transport of various receptor-bound substrates.
   
  
 0.581
yqjH
Putative siderophore interacting protein; Plays a role in iron homeostasis under excess nickel conditions; Belongs to the SIP oxidoreductase family.
   
  
 0.571
