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:
some 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

yfjXCP4-57 prophage; putative antirestriction protein; Belongs to the antirestriction protein family (152 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ypjJ
CP4-57 prophage; DUF987 domain-containing protein YpjJ; Belongs to the YeeT/YkfH/YpjJ family
 
   
 0.995
yfjY
CP4-57 prophage; RadC-like JAB domain-containing protein YfjY; Belongs to the UPF0758 family
 
  
 0.981
yfjZ
CP4-57 prophage; putative antitoxin of the YpjF-YfjZ toxin-antitoxin system; Antitoxin component of a type IV toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Antitoxin that counteracts the effect of cognate toxin YpjF . Also counteracts the effect of non-cognate toxins CbtA and YfkI
 
  
 0.974
ypjF
CP4-57 prophage; toxin of the YpjF-YfjZ toxin-antitoxin system; Toxic component of a type IV toxin-antitoxin (TA) system . Acts as a dual toxin inhibitor that blocks cell division and cell elongation in genetically separable interactions with FtsZ and MreB . Overexpression results in inhibition of growth in liquid cultures . Overexpression leads to formation of lemon-shaped cells; inactivated by overexpression of cognate antitoxin YfjZ but not when the 2 genes are coexpressed from the same plasmid . Also neutralized by overexpression of non-cognate antitoxins YafW and CbeA
 
   
 0.968
yafW
Cytoskeleton bundling-enhancing protein cbea and related proteins; Antitoxin component of a type IV toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Antitoxin that counteracts the effect of cognate toxin YkfI . It does not seem to bind to the cognate toxin but instead induces toxin loss by an unknown mechanism . Co-overexpression of toxin YkfI and antitoxin YafW leads to formation of elongated cells
  
  
 0.952
ykfH
DUF987 domain-containing protein YkfH; Belongs to the YeeT/YkfH/YpjJ family
 
  
 0.937
yfjR
CP4-57 prophage; putative DNA-binding transcriptional regulator; Uncharacterized HTH-type transcriptional regulator YfjR; Phage or Prophage Related
 
    0.844
ykfI
CP4-6 prophage; toxin of the YkfI-YafW toxin-antitoxin system; Toxic component of a type IV toxin-antitoxin (TA) system . Acts as a toxin inhibitor that blocks cell division and cell elongation via FtsZ and possibly also MreB (although no interaction with MreB has been proven) . Overexpression results in inhibition of growth in liquid cultures and a decrease in colony formation These effects are overcome by concomitant expression of cognate antitoxin YafW, which leads to toxin loss by an unknown mechanism . Overexpression leads to formation of lemon-shaped cells and cell lysis; inactiv [...]

cbeA
Cytoskeleton bundling-enhancing protein cbea and related proteins; Antitoxin component of a type IV toxin-antitoxin (TA) system . Antitoxin that counteracts the effect of its cognate toxin CbtA (YeeV) . It does not bind to the toxin but instead binds to MreB and FtsZ (the toxin targets), enhancing their polymerization by forming higher-order bundles; it is probably retained in the MreB and FtsZ filament bundles . The mechanism has been proposed to require intergenic DNA, in cis, between the cbeA (yeeU) and cbta (yeeV) genes . The intergenic region was not found to be necessary in anoth [...]

cbtA
Toxic component of a type IV toxin-antitoxin (TA) system Acts as a dual toxin inhibitor that blocks cell division and cell elongation in genetically separable interactions with FtsZ and MreB . Interacts with cytoskeletal proteins FtsZ and MreB; inhibits FtsZ GTP-dependent polymerization and GTPase activity as well as MreB ATP-dependent polymerization Binds to both the N- and C-terminus of FtsZ, likely blocking its polymerization and localization, leading to blockage of cell division . Overexpression results in inhibition of growth in liquid cultures and decrease in colony formation; th [...]
