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

ecoEcotin, a serine protease inhibitor; General inhibitor of pancreatic serine proteases: inhibits chymotrypsin, trypsin, elastases, factor X, kallikrein as well as a variety of other proteases. The strength of inhibition does not appear to be correlated with a particular protease specificity. (162 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ygeW
Putative carbamoyltransferase; Putative carbamoyltransferase. No activity can be detected with allantoin or 25 other related compounds, including 20 naturally occurring amino acids, N-acetyl-L-ornithine, N-succinyl-L-ornithine, L- ornithine, oxamate, beta-alanine and putrescine.

tauD
Taurine dioxygenase, 2-oxoglutarate-dependent; Catalyzes the alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent hydroxylation of taurine yielding sulfite and aminoacetaldehyde after decomposition of an unstable intermediate. Is required for the utilization of taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonate) as an alternative sulfur source for growth in the absence of sulfate. To a lesser extent, pentanesulfonate, 3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonate and 1,3-dioxo-2-isoindolineethanesulfonate are also desulfonated by this enzyme in vitro; however, desulfonation by TauD of organosulfonates other than taurine seem to be of littl [...]

waaP
Kinase that phosphorylates core heptose of lipopolysaccharide; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of heptose(I) of the outer membrane lipopolysaccharide core.
  
     0.459
eptC
LPS heptose I phosphoethanolamine transferase; Catalyzes the addition of a phosphoethanolamine moiety to the outer membrane lipopolysaccharide core; Belongs to the phosphoethanolamine transferase family. EptC/CptA subfamily.
  
     0.451
ybgQ
Putative outer membrane protein; Could be involved in the export and assembly of the putative YbgD fimbrial subunit across the outer membrane; Belongs to the fimbrial export usher family.
  
     0.437
intE
E14 prophage; Integrase from the cryptic lambdoic prophage e14. Integrase is necessary for integration of the phage into the host genome by site- specific recombination. In conjunction with excisionase, integrase is also necessary for excision of the prophage from the host genome.
  
     0.434
ompA
Outer membrane protein A (3a;II*;G;d); With TolR probably plays a role in maintaining the position of the peptidoglycan cell wall in the periplasm (Probable). Plays a role in resistance to environmental stress, and a role in outer membrane functionality and cell shape. Non-covalently binds peptidoglycan (Probable). Acts as a porin with low permeability that allows slow penetration of small solutes. A very abundant protein, there can be up to 210,000 OmpA molecules per cell. Reconstitution in unilamellar lipid vesicles shows only about 3% of the protein is in an open conformation, whic [...]

stfR
Rac prophage; putative tail fiber protein; Belongs to the tail fiber family.
  
     0.420
yjiK
SdiA-regulated family putative membrane-anchored protein; putative phytase-like esterase.
  
     0.420
yggL
DUF469 family protein; To H.influenzae HI_0341.
