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

trkGRac prophage; Low-affinity potassium transport system. Interacts with Trk system potassium uptake protein TrkA. Requires TrkE (sapD) for maximal transport activity, low activity is seen in its absence; no further stimulation is seen with SapF. Transport in the absence of SapD is dependent on a high membrane potential and a high cytoplasmic ATP concentration, suggesting this protein may be able to interact with other ATP-binding proteins. Can transport potassium and rubidium. (485 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
trkA
NAD-binding component of TrK potassium transporter; Part of the constitutive potassium transport systems TrkG and TrkH. May regulate the transport activity of TrkG and TrkH systems. Binds to NAD(+) and NADH.
 
 
 0.985
kup
Potassium transporter; Responsible for the low-affinity transport of potassium into the cell, with the probable concomitant uptake of protons (symport system). Can also transport cesium; Belongs to the HAK/KUP transporter (TC 2.A.72) family.
     
 0.893
kch
Voltage-gated potassium channel; K(+)-specific ion channel. May play a role in the defense against osmotic shock.
  
 
 0.808
sapD
Antimicrobial peptide ABC transporter ATPase; Part of a putrescine export transport system, does not play a role in resistance to antimicrobial peptides. Stimulates K(+)-uptake proteins TrkG and TrkH to import K(+), may act via ATP-binding rather than ATP hydrolysis.
      
 0.787
kefC
Potassium:proton antiporter; Pore-forming subunit of a potassium efflux system that confers protection against electrophiles. Catalyzes K(+)/H(+) antiport. Can also export rubidium, lithium and sodium.
   
 
 0.733
pfo
Pyruvate-flavodoxin oxidoreductase; Oxidoreductase required for the transfer of electrons from pyruvate to flavodoxin.
   
 
 0.699
kefB
Potassium:proton antiporter; Pore-forming subunit of a potassium efflux system that confers protection against electrophiles. Catalyzes K(+)/H(+) antiport. Belongs to the monovalent cation:proton antiporter 2 (CPA2) transporter (TC 2.A.37) family. KefB subfamily.
   
 
 0.591
yedI
DUF808 family inner membrane protein.
      
 0.543
kefG
Potassium-efflux system ancillary protein for KefB, glutathione-regulated; Regulatory subunit of a potassium efflux system that confers protection against electrophiles. Required for full activity of KefB.
      
 0.529
ynaK
Rac prophage; conserved protein.
  
    0.503
