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

prfAPeptide chain release factor RF-1; Peptide chain release factor 1 directs the termination of translation in response to the peptide chain termination codons UAG and UAA. (360 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
prmC
RF-1 and RF-2 N5-glutamine methyltransferase; Methylates the class 1 translation termination release factors RF1/PrfA and RF2/PrfB on the glutamine residue of the universally conserved GGQ motif, i.e. on 'Gln-235' in RF1 and on 'Gln- 252' in RF2; Belongs to the protein N5-glutamine methyltransferase family. PrmC subfamily.
 
 0.999
frr
Ribosome recycling factor; Responsible for the release of ribosomes from messenger RNA at the termination of protein biosynthesis. May increase the efficiency of translation by recycling ribosomes from one round of translation to another.
 
 
 0.990
rpmA
50S ribosomal subunit protein L27; Protein involved in structural constituent of ribosome and translation.
 
 
 0.987
rplT
50S ribosomal subunit protein L20; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds close to the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly.
  
 
 0.986
prfC
Peptide chain release factor RF-3; Increases the formation of ribosomal termination complexes and stimulates activities of RF-1 and RF-2. It binds guanine nucleotides and has strong preference for UGA stop codons. It may interact directly with the ribosome. The stimulation of RF-1 and RF-2 is significantly reduced by GTP and GDP, but not by GMP.
   
 
 0.986
rplM
50S ribosomal subunit protein L13; This protein is one of the early assembly proteins of the 50S ribosomal subunit, although it is not seen to bind rRNA by itself. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly.
 
 
 0.984
rpsG
30S ribosomal subunit protein S7; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the head domain of the 30S subunit. Is located at the subunit interface close to the decoding center, where it has been shown to contact mRNA. Has been shown to contact tRNA in both the P and E sites; it probably blocks exit of the E site tRNA.
  
 
 0.983
rplQ
50S ribosomal subunit protein L17; Requires L15 for assembly into the 50S subunit.
 
 
 0.981
rplO
50S ribosomal subunit protein L15; This protein binds the 5S rRNA. It is required for the late stages of subunit assembly, and is essential for 5S rRNA assembly onto the ribosome; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL15 family.
 
 
 0.978
rplC
50S ribosomal subunit protein L3; One of two assembly initiator proteins, it binds directly near the 3'-end of the 23S rRNA, where it nucleates assembly of the 50S subunit.
 
 
 0.977
