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

Score
lapBTetratricopeptide repeat protein; Modulates cellular lipopolysaccharide (LPS) levels by regulating LpxC, which is involved in lipid A biosynthesis. May act by modulating the proteolytic activity of FtsH towards LpxC. May also coordinate assembly of proteins involved in LPS synthesis at the plasma membrane; Belongs to the LapB family. (390 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
yciS
Inner membrane protein YciS; Involved in the assembly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Belongs to the LapA family.
 
  
 0.921
yejM
Inner membrane protein YejM.
  
 
 
 0.816
pyrF
Orotidine 5'-phosphate decarboxylase; Catalyzes the decarboxylation of orotidine 5'-monophosphate (OMP) to uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP); Belongs to the OMP decarboxylase family. Type 1 subfamily.
       0.672
tolC
Outer membrane protein TolC precursor.
  
   
 0.668
yciH
Translation initiation factor Sui1.
       0.660
msbB
Lipid A biosynthesis (KDO)2-(lauroyl)-lipid IVA acyltransferase; Catalyzes the transfer of myristate from myristoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) to Kdo(2)-(lauroyl)-lipid IV(A) to form Kdo(2)- lipid A.
  
   
 0.615
ftsB
Cell division protein FtsB; Essential cell division protein. May link together the upstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly cytoplasmic, with the downstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly periplasmic.
 
     0.615
rodZ
Cytoskeleton protein RodZ; Cytoskeletal protein that is involved in cell-shape control through regulation of the length of the long axis. Belongs to the RodZ family.
 
     0.613
yhcB
Inner membrane protein YhcB.
  
     0.610
lpxH
UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine hydrolase; Hydrolyzes the pyrophosphate bond of UDP-2,3- diacylglucosamine to yield 2,3-diacylglucosamine 1-phosphate (lipid X) and UMP by catalyzing the attack of water at the alpha-P atom. Involved in the biosynthesis of lipid A, a phosphorylated glycolipid that anchors the lipopolysaccharide to the outer membrane of the cell.
