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

PMM1629Type II alternative RNA polymerase sigma factor, sigma-70 family; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. (333 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
dnaG
CHC2 zinc finger:Toprim domain; RNA polymerase that catalyzes the synthesis of short RNA molecules used as primers for DNA polymerase during DNA replication.
  
 0.855
rpoA
Bacterial RNA polymerase, alpha chain; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
   
 
 0.744
rpoB
RNA polymerase beta subunit; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
   
 
 0.656
PMM1630
MgtE family, putative magnesium transport protein; Acts as a magnesium transporter.
  
    0.645
rpoZ
Putative DNA-directed RNA polymerase (omega chain); Promotes RNA polymerase assembly. Latches the N- and C- terminal regions of the beta' subunit thereby facilitating its interaction with the beta and alpha subunits.
   
 
 0.610
gyrB
DNA gyrase, subunit B; A type II topoisomerase that negatively supercoils closed circular double-stranded (ds) DNA in an ATP-dependent manner to modulate DNA topology and maintain chromosomes in an underwound state. Negative supercoiling favors strand separation, and DNA replication, transcription, recombination and repair, all of which involve strand separation. Also able to catalyze the interconversion of other topological isomers of dsDNA rings, including catenanes and knotted rings. Type II topoisomerases break and join 2 DNA strands simultaneously in an ATP-dependent manner.
  
 
 0.577
trmD
Putative bifuntional enzyme: tRNA methyltransferase; Involved in the biosynthesis of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP), two major building blocks of isoprenoid compounds. Catalyzes the conversion of 4-diphosphocytidyl-2- C-methyl-D-erythritol 2-phosphate (CDP-ME2P) to 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 2,4-cyclodiphosphate (ME-CPP) with a corresponding release of cytidine 5-monophosphate (CMP); Belongs to the RNA methyltransferase TrmD family.
 
    0.568
crcB1
Conserved hypothetical protein; Important for reducing fluoride concentration in the cell, thus reducing its toxicity; Belongs to the CrcB (TC 9.B.71) family.
       0.560
tldD
Putative modulator of DNA gyrase; Alternative locus ID: PMED4_09381.
   
 
 0.530
PMM1633
Conserved hypothetical protein; Alternative locus ID: PMED4_18431.
  
    0.524
