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

zapACell division protein ZapA; Activator of cell division through the inhibition of FtsZ GTPase activity, therefore promoting FtsZ assembly into bundles of protofilaments necessary for the formation of the division Z ring. It is recruited early at mid-cell but it is not essential for cell division. (88 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
KIX91026.1
Hypothetical protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
 
  
 0.937
ftsZ
Cell division protein FtsZ; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity.

rnhC
Ribonuclease HIII; Endonuclease that specifically degrades the RNA of RNA-DNA hybrids.
 
    0.834
polX
DNA polymerase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
 
     0.814
trxA_2
Thioredoxin; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the thioredoxin family.
  
    0.734
uvrC
Excinuclease ABC subunit C; The UvrABC repair system catalyzes the recognition and processing of DNA lesions. UvrC both incises the 5' and 3' sides of the lesion. The N-terminal half is responsible for the 3' incision and the C-terminal half is responsible for the 5' incision.
       0.685
ezrA
Septation ring formation regulator EzrA; Negative regulator of FtsZ ring formation; modulates the frequency and position of FtsZ ring formation. Inhibits FtsZ ring formation at polar sites. Interacts either with FtsZ or with one of its binding partners to promote depolymerization; Belongs to the EzrA family.

KIX90104.1
Hypothetical protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
     0.649
ytkD
Nucleoside triphosphatase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the Nudix hydrolase family.
 
    0.645
sepF
Cell division protein SepF; Cell division protein that is part of the divisome complex and is recruited early to the Z-ring. Probably stimulates Z-ring formation, perhaps through the cross-linking of FtsZ protofilaments. Its function overlaps with FtsA.
