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

typAGTP-binding protein; A 50S ribosomal subunit assembly protein with GTPase and nucleotide-independent chaperone activity. Genetic and deletion evidence suggests this is involved in ribosome assembly at low temperatures; it may also affect translation (Probable). Involved in incorporation of ribosomal protein L6 into precursor 44S ribosomal particles at low temperatures. Also has chaperone activity which does not require nucleotides. Binds GDP, ppGpp and GDPCP (a nonhydrolyzable GTP analog) with similar affinity; the conformation of the protein does not significantly change upon nucleoti [...] (607 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
der
GTPase; GTPase that plays an essential role in the late steps of ribosome biogenesis. GTPase point mutations (but not a deletion mutant) are suppressed by mild overexpression of RelA, probably due to increased levels of the stringent response mediator (p)ppGpp. 50S subunits assembled in the absence of Der are defective and unable to assemble into 70S ribosomes. GTPase activity is stimulated by YihI. Overexpression rescues an rrmJ deletion, stabilizing the 70S ribosome. Der and RrmJ are likely to share a mechanism to stabilize 50S ribosomal subunits at a very late stage of 50S subunit m [...]

fis
Global DNA-binding transcriptional dual regulator; Activates ribosomal RNA transcription, as well other genes. Plays a direct role in upstream activation of rRNA promoters. Binds to a recombinational enhancer sequence that is required to stimulate hin- mediated DNA inversion. Prevents initiation of DNA replication from oriC. Binds to hundreds of transcriptionally active and inactive AT- rich sites, approximately half its binding sites are in non-coding DNA, which only accounts for about 10% of the genome. Belongs to the transcriptional regulatory Fis family.

rplA
50S ribosomal subunit protein L1; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds very close to the 3'-end of the 23S rRNA. Forms part of the L1 stalk. It is often not seen in high-resolution crystal structures, but can be seen in cryo_EM and 3D reconstruction models. These indicate that the distal end of the stalk moves by approximately 20 angstroms. This stalk movement is thought to be coupled to movement of deacylated tRNA into and out of the E site, and thus to participate in tRNA translocation. Contacts the P and E site tRNAs.

obgE
GTPase involved in cell partioning and DNA repair; An abundant, essential GTPase which binds GTP, GDP and ppGpp with moderate affinity. Has high guanosine nucleotide exchange rate constants for GTP and GDP, and a relatively low GTP hydrolysis rate stimulated by the 50S ribosomal subunit. It is estimated there are 34000 molecules in log-phase cells and 5600 molecules in stationary- phase cells. Required for chromosome segregation. Plays a role in the stringent response, perhaps by sequestering 50S ribosomal subunits and decreasing protein synthesis , and a non-essential role in the late [...]

tsf
Translation elongation factor EF-Ts; Associates with the EF-Tu.GDP complex and induces the exchange of GDP to GTP. It remains bound to the aminoacyl-tRNA.EF- Tu.GTP complex up to the GTP hydrolysis stage on the ribosome. (Microbial infection) Promotes the tRNase activity of CdiA-CT from E.coli strain EC869 (CdiA-CT-EC869); required in vivo but less so in vitro. Probably loads charged tRNA onto EF-Tu, making more ternary GTP-EF-Tu-aa-tRNA complexes. The guanine nucleotide exchange factor capacity of this protein does not seem to be needed as no GTP hydrolysis occurs during tRNA cleavag [...]

ychF
Catalase inhibitor protein; ATPase that binds to both the 70S ribosome and the 50S ribosomal subunit in a nucleotide-independent manner. Does not hydrolyze GTP; Belongs to the TRAFAC class OBG-HflX-like GTPase superfamily. OBG GTPase family. YchF/OLA1 subfamily.
  
  
 0.718
tig
Peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase (trigger factor); Involved in protein export. Acts as a chaperone by maintaining the newly synthesized secretory and non-secretory proteins in an open conformation. Binds to 3 regions of unfolded substrate PhoA, preferring aromatic and hydrophobic residues, keeping it stretched out and unable to form aggregates. Binds to nascent polypeptide chains via ribosomal protein L23. Functions as a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase in vitro, this activity is dispensible in vivo for chaperone activity. Belongs to the FKBP-type PPIase family. Tig subfamily.

guaA
GMP synthetase (glutamine aminotransferase); Catalyzes the synthesis of GMP from XMP.

fusA
Protein chain elongation factor EF-G, GTP-binding; Catalyzes the GTP-dependent ribosomal translocation step during translation elongation. During this step, the ribosome changes from the pre-translocational (PRE) to the post-translocational (POST) state as the newly formed A-site-bound peptidyl-tRNA and P-site-bound deacylated tRNA move to the P and E sites, respectively. Catalyzes the coordinated movement of the two tRNA molecules, the mRNA and conformational changes in the ribosome; Belongs to the TRAFAC class translation factor GTPase superfamily. Classic translation factor GTPase f [...]
