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

fimFMinor component of type 1 fimbriae; Involved in regulation of length and mediation of adhesion of type 1 fimbriae (but not necessary for the production of fimbriae). Involved in the integration of FimH in the fimbriae (176 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fimC
Type 1 fimbriae periplasmic chaperone; Required for the biogenesis of type 1 fimbriae. Binds and interact with FimH
 
 
 0.999
fimH
Involved in regulation of length and mediation of adhesion of type 1 fimbriae (but not necessary for the production of fimbriae). Adhesin responsible for the binding to D-mannose. It is laterally positioned at intervals in the structure of the type 1 fimbriae. In order to integrate FimH in the fimbriae FimF and FimG are needed
 
 
 0.999
fimG
Minor component of type 1 fimbriae; Involved in regulation of length and mediation of adhesion of type 1 fimbriae (but not necessary for the production of fimbriae). Involved in the integration of FimH in the fimbriae
 
 
 0.996
fimD
Fimbrial usher outer membrane porin protein; Involved in the export and assembly of FimA fimbrial subunits across the outer membrane
 
   0.995
sfmH
Putative fimbrial adhesin protein sfmh; Part of the sfmACDHF fimbrial operon. Could contribute to adhesion to various surfaces in specific environmental niches. Increases adhesion to eukaryotic T24 bladder epithelial cells in the absence of fim genes
      
 0.977
sfmC
Putative periplasmic pilus chaperone; Part of the sfmACDHF fimbrial operon. Could contribute to adhesion to various surfaces in specific environmental niches. Increases adhesion to eukaryotic T24 bladder epithelial cells in the absence of fim genes
 
 
 
 0.973
yfaL
Putative autotransporter adhesin yfal; Probably an autotransporter
   
 
 0.848
fimE
Tyrosine recombinase/inversion of on/off regulator of fima; FimE is one of the 2 regulatory proteins which control the phase variation of type 1 fimbriae in E.coli. These proteins mediate the periodic inversion of a 300bp DNA segment that harbors the promoter for the fimbrial structural gene, fimA. FimE switches fimA off
  
  
 0.812
ydeQ
Uncharacterized fimbrial-like protein YdeQ; Putative adhesin; similar to FimH protein
  
   
 0.809
ydeR
Putative fimbrial-like adhesin protein; Putative fimbrial-like protein
 
 
 
 0.799
