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

motBProtein that enables flagellar motor rotation; MotA and MotB comprise the stator element of the flagellar motor complex. Required for the rotation of the flagellar motor. Probably a linker that fastens the torque-generating machinery to the cell wall. Overexpression of this protein with MotA improves motility in a pdeH disruption, (a c-di-GMP phosphodiesterase) suggesting there is an interaction (direct or indirect) between the c-di-GMP-binding flagellar brake protein YcgR and the flagellar stator. (308 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
cheW
Purine-binding chemotaxis protein; Involved in the transmission of sensory signals from the chemoreceptors to the flagellar motors. It physically bridges CheA to the MCPs (methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins) to allow regulated phosphotransfer to CheY and CheB.
 
  
 0.999
cheA
Chemotaxis protein CheA; Involved in the transmission of sensory signals from the chemoreceptors to the flagellar motors. CheA is autophosphorylated; it can transfer its phosphate group to either CheB or CheY.
  
 0.999
motA
Proton conductor component of flagella motor; MotA and MotB comprise the stator element of the flagellar motor complex. Required for rotation of the flagellar motor. Probable transmembrane proton channel. Overexpression of MotA, with or without MotB, restores motility in a pdeH disruption, (a c-di-GMP phosphodiesterase) suggesting there is an interaction (direct or indirect) between the c-di-GMP-binding flagellar brake protein YcgR and the flagellar stator.
 0.999
fliG
Flagellar motor switching and energizing component; FliG is one of three proteins (FliG, FliN, FliM) that forms the rotor-mounted switch complex (C ring), located at the base of the basal body. This complex interacts with the CheY and CheZ chemotaxis proteins, in addition to contacting components of the motor that determine the direction of flagellar rotation.
 
  
 0.997
flgK
Flagellar biosynthesis, hook-filament junction protein 1; Protein involved in flagellum assembly, protein folding and taxis; Belongs to the flagella basal body rod proteins family.
 
  
 0.995
flhC
Flagellar class II regulon transcriptional activator, with FlhD; Functions in complex with FlhD as a master transcriptional regulator that regulates transcription of several flagellar and non- flagellar operons by binding to their promoter region. Activates expression of class 2 flagellar genes, including fliA, which is a flagellum-specific sigma factor that turns on the class 3 genes. Also regulates genes whose products function in a variety of physiological pathways.
  
 0.995
fliF
Flagellar basal-body MS-ring and collar protein; The M ring may be actively involved in energy transduction; Belongs to the FliF family.
 
  
 0.995
fliM
Flagellar motor switching and energizing component; FliM is one of three proteins (FliG, FliN, FliM) that forms the rotor-mounted switch complex (C ring), located at the base of the basal body. This complex interacts with the CheY and CheZ chemotaxis proteins, in addition to contacting components of the motor that determine the direction of flagellar rotation.
 
  
 0.995
flgC
Flagellar biosynthesis, cell-proximal portion of basal-body rod; Protein involved in flagellum assembly and taxis.
 
  
 0.994
cheZ
Chemotaxis regulator, protein phosphatase for CheY; Plays an important role in bacterial chemotaxis signal transduction pathway by accelerating the dephosphorylation of phosphorylated CheY (CheY-P); Belongs to the CheZ family.
