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

lptCPeriplasmic membrane-anchored LPS-binding protein; Involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Required for the translocation of LPS from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. Facilitates the transfer of LPS from the inner membrane to the periplasmic protein LptA. Could be a docking site for LptA. Belongs to the LptC family. (191 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lptD
LPS assembly OM complex LptDE, beta-barrel component; Together with LptE, is involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at the surface of the outer membrane. Contributes to n-hexane resistance.
 
 
 0.999
lptA
Lipopolysaccharide export ABC transporter periplasmic binding protein; Involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Required for the translocation of LPS from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. May form a bridge between the inner membrane and the outer membrane, via interactions with LptC and LptD, thereby facilitating LPS transfer across the periplasm.
 
 0.999
lptB
Lipopolysaccharide export ABC transporter ATPase; Part of the ABC transporter complex LptBFG involved in the translocation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from the inner membrane to the outer membrane. Probably responsible for energy coupling to the transport system.
  
 0.999
lptF
Lipopolysaccharide export ABC permease; Part of the ABC transporter complex LptBFG involved in the translocation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from the inner membrane to the outer membrane.
 
 0.999
lptG
Lipopolysaccharide export ABC permease; Part of the ABC transporter complex LptBFG involved in the translocation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from the inner membrane to the outer membrane.
  
 0.999
lptE
LPS assembly OM complex LptDE, lipoprotein component; Together with LptD, is involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at the surface of the outer membrane. Required for the proper assembly of LptD. Binds LPS and may serve as the LPS recognition site at the outer membrane. Belongs to the LptE lipoprotein family.
  
 
 0.997
kdsC
3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate 8-phosphate phosphatase; Catalyzes the hydrolysis of 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate 8- phosphate (KDO 8-P) to 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate (KDO) and inorganic phosphate.
  
  
 0.971
yrbG
Putative calcium/sodium:proton antiporter; Protein involved in calcium:sodium antiporter activity.
  
  
 0.909
kdsD
D-arabinose 5-phosphate isomerase; Involved in the biosynthesis of 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate (KDO), a unique 8-carbon sugar component of lipopolysaccharides (LPSs). KdsD is not essential in the KDO biosynthesis and can be substituted by GutQ. Catalyzes the reversible aldol-ketol isomerization between D- ribulose 5-phosphate (Ru5P) and D-arabinose 5-phosphate (A5P).
  
  
 0.886
mlaC
ABC transporter maintaining OM lipid asymmetry, periplasmic binding protein; Involved in a phospholipid transport pathway that maintains lipid asymmetry in the outer membrane by retrograde trafficking of phospholipids from the outer membrane to the inner membrane. May transfer phospholipid across the periplasmic space and deliver it to the MlaFEDB complex at the inner membrane. Belongs to the MlaC/ttg2D family.
