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

minCSeptum site-determining protein MinC; 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; Belongs to the MinC family. (214 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
AAZ59186.1
Septum site-determining protein MinD; Alternative locus ID: NATL2_03941.
 
 
 0.999
minE
Cell division topological specificity factor MinE; 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.
 
  
 0.903
AAZ58688.1
Rod shape-determining protein MreC; Alternative locus ID: NATL2_20201.
 
  
 0.859
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.

AAZ58687.1
Conserved hypothetical protein; Alternative locus ID: NATL2_20191.
  
  
 0.833
AAZ59189.1
C-terminal processing peptidase-2, Serine peptidase, MEROPS family S41A; Alternative locus ID: NATL2_03971; Belongs to the peptidase S41A family.
  
    0.825
AAZ59188.1
Metal dependent phosphohydrolase; Alternative locus ID: NATL2_03961.
       0.818
petB
Cytochrome b6; Component of the cytochrome b6-f complex, which mediates electron transfer between photosystem II (PSII) and photosystem I (PSI), cyclic electron flow around PSI, and state transitions.
  
  
 0.665
sepF
Conserved hypothetical protein; 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.
  
  
 0.546
petD
PetD protein; Component of the cytochrome b6-f complex, which mediates electron transfer between photosystem II (PSII) and photosystem I (PSI), cyclic electron flow around PSI, and state transitions.
