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

kefBPotassium: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. (601 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
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.
 
 0.997
kefF
Potassium-efflux system ancillary protein for KefC, glutathione-regulated; Regulatory subunit of a potassium efflux system that confers protection against electrophiles. Required for full activity of KefC. Shows redox enzymatic activity, but this enzymatic activity is not required for activation of KefC. Can use a wide range of substrates, including electrophilic quinones, and its function could be to reduce the redox toxicity of electrophilic quinones in parallel with acting as triggers for the KefC efflux system. Belongs to the NAD(P)H dehydrogenase (quinone) family. KefF subfamily.
  
 0.978
yheV
DUF2387 family putative metal-binding protein.
       0.810
nhaA
Sodium-proton antiporter; Na(+)/H(+) antiporter that extrudes sodium in exchange for external protons. Catalyzes the exchange of 2 H(+) per Na(+). Can mediate sodium uptake when a transmembrane pH gradient is applied. Active at alkaline pH. Activity is strongly down-regulated below pH 6.5; Belongs to the NhaA Na(+)/H(+) (TC 2.A.33) antiporter family.
     
 0.786
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.
 
 
0.775
kdpA
Potassium translocating ATPase, subunit A; Part of the high-affinity ATP-driven potassium transport (or Kdp) system, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the electrogenic transport of potassium into the cytoplasm. This subunit binds and transports the potassium across the cytoplasmic membrane.
     
 0.769
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.
     
 0.752
trkH
Potassium transporter; Low-affinity potassium transport system. Interacts with Trk system potassium uptake protein TrkA. Requires TrkE (sapD) for transport activity, 20% more uptake is seen with both SapD and SapF. Transport in the absence of SapD and SapF 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.
   
 
 0.668
yheT
UPF0017 family putative hydrolase; Belongs to the AB hydrolase superfamily. AB hydrolase 4 family.
 
     0.667
psiE
Phosphate starvation inducible protein; Belongs to the PsiE family.
      
 0.646
