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

minECell division topological specificity factor; Prevents the cell division inhibition by proteins MinC and MinD at internal division sites while permitting inhibition at polar sites. This ensures cell division at the proper site by restricting the formation of a division septum at the midpoint of the long axis of the cell. (88 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
minD
Membrane ATPase of the MinC-MinD-MinE system; Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied species; factor.
 
 
 0.999
cspC
Stress protein, member of the CspA-family; Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied species; factor.
   
    0.971
parC
DNA topoisomerase IV, subunit A; Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied species; enzyme.
   
    0.960
minC
Cell division inhibitor; Cell division inhibitor that blocks the formation of polar Z ring septums. Rapidly oscillates between the poles of the cell to destabilize FtsZ filaments that have formed before they mature into polar Z rings. Prevents FtsZ polymerization.
 
  
 0.949
tufA
Protein chain elongation factor EF-Tu (duplicate of tufB); This protein promotes the GTP-dependent binding of aminoacyl- tRNA to the A-site of ribosomes during protein biosynthesis.
   
    0.946
yobF
Conserved hypothetical protein; Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
   
    0.934
yaeQ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Homologs of previously reported genes of unknown function.
   
    0.912
lepB
Leader peptidase (signal peptidase I); Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied species; enzyme; Belongs to the peptidase S26 family.
   
    0.909
rne
Fused ribonucleaseE: endoribonuclease; Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied species; enzyme.
  
    0.898
tufB
Protein chain elongation factor EF-Tu (duplicate of tufA); Function experimentally demonstrated in the studied species; factor.
   
    0.898
