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

hflXGTP-binding protein HflX; GTPase that associates with the 50S ribosomal subunit and may have a role during protein synthesis or ribosome biogenesis. Belongs to the TRAFAC class OBG-HflX-like GTPase superfamily. HflX GTPase family. (432 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
hfq
RNA-binding protein Hfq; RNA chaperone that binds small regulatory RNA (sRNAs) and mRNAs to facilitate mRNA translational regulation in response to envelope stress, environmental stress and changes in metabolite concentrations. Also binds with high specificity to tRNAs. Belongs to the Hfq family.
  
  
 0.928
rplI
LSU ribosomal protein L9P; Binds to the 23S rRNA.
 
 
 
 0.871
rplR
LSU ribosomal protein L18P; This is one of the proteins that binds and probably mediates the attachment of the 5S RNA into the large ribosomal subunit, where it forms part of the central protuberance.
 
 
   0.862
rplK
LSU ribosomal protein L11P; Forms part of the ribosomal stalk which helps the ribosome interact with GTP-bound translation factors.
    
 
 0.859
rplT
LSU ribosomal protein L20P; Binds directly to 23S ribosomal RNA and is necessary for the in vitro assembly process of the 50S ribosomal subunit. It is not involved in the protein synthesizing functions of that subunit.
  
 
   0.858
RplC
LSU ribosomal protein L3P.
   
 
 0.856
rplD
LSU ribosomal protein L4P; Forms part of the polypeptide exit tunnel.
   
 
 0.850
rpmF
LSU ribosomal protein L32P; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL32 family.
    
 
 0.850
rplM
LSU ribosomal protein L13P; This protein is one of the early assembly proteins of the 50S ribosomal subunit, although it is not seen to bind rRNA by itself. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly.
    
 
 0.847
rpmB
LSU ribosomal protein L28P; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL28 family.
    
 
 0.846
