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

kupPotassium 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. (622 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
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.
   
  
 0.921
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.
     
 0.915
trkA
NAD-binding component of TrK potassium transporter; Part of the constitutive potassium transport systems TrkG and TrkH. May regulate the transport activity of TrkG and TrkH systems. Binds to NAD(+) and NADH.
  
  
 0.897
trkG
Rac prophage; Low-affinity potassium transport system. Interacts with Trk system potassium uptake protein TrkA. Requires TrkE (sapD) for maximal transport activity, low activity is seen in its absence; no further stimulation is seen with SapF. Transport in the absence of SapD 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.
     
 0.893
kdpB
Potassium translocating ATPase, subunit B; 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 is responsible for energy coupling to the transport system.
      
 0.837
kdpD
Fused sensory histidine kinase in two-component regulatory system with KdpE: signal sensing protein; Member of the two-component regulatory system KdpD/KdpE involved in the regulation of the kdp operon. KdpD may function as a membrane-associated protein kinase that phosphorylates KdpE in response to environmental signals.
     
 0.836
kdpC
Potassium translocating ATPase, subunit C; 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 acts as a catalytic chaperone that increases the ATP-binding affinity of the ATP- hydrolyzing subunit KdpB by the formation of a transient KdpB/KdpC/ATP ternary complex.
   
  
 0.819
kdpE
Response regulator in two-component regulatory system with KdpD; Member of the two-component regulatory system KdpD/KdpE involved in the regulation of the kdp operon.
      
 0.791
kefB
Potassium: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.
     
 0.752
cvrA
Putative cation/proton antiporter; K(+)/H(+) antiporter that extrudes potassium in exchange for external protons and maintains the internal concentration of potassium under toxic levels (By similarity). Participates in control of cell volume in low-osmolarity conditions; Belongs to the monovalent cation:proton antiporter 1 (CPA1) transporter (TC 2.A.36) family. NhaP2 subfamily.
