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

pilU1Twitching motility protein; Tfp pilus retraction protein PilU, probable involved in the twitching motility mechanism,; High confidence in function and specificity. (435 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pilD
Prepilin peptidase; Cleaves type-4 fimbrial leader sequence and methylates the N- terminal (generally Phe) residue.
  
   
 0.787
pilC
Type 4 pilus biogenesis protein; Pilus assembly protein PilC is a component of the pilus biogenesis apparatus, similarity to pir|B35384 (50%). This apparatus is responsible for the stabilization, translocation and assembly of the monomeric pilin subunits into the pilus organelle. InterPro (IPR001992): Bacterial type II secretion system protein. InterPro (IPR003004): Bacterial general secretion pathway protein F Pfam (PF00482): Bacterial type II secretion system protein TMHMM reporting three TMH; High confidence in function and specificity.
 
   
 0.779
gspF1
General secretion pathway protein F; Type II secretory pathway component F,; Specificity unclear.
 
   
 0.777
gspF2
General secretion pathway protein F,similar trembl|Q88HD6 (39%). The general (type II) secretion pathway (GSP) within Gram-negative bacteria is a signal sequence-dependent process responsible for protein export. The process has two stages: exoproteins are first translocated across the inner membrane by the general signal-dependent export pathway (GEP), and then across the outer membrane by a species-specific accessory mechanism. InterPro (IPR001992): Bacterial type II secretion system protein. InterPro (IPR003004): Bacterial general secretion pathway protein F Pfam (PF00482): Bacterial [...]

pilM
Type 4 fimbrial biogenesis protein PilM, similarity to trembl|Q82SK1 (56%)and to pir|S77726 (47%). Four genes,pilM-P, encode the necessary proteins and pilM is required for the assembly of the type IV fimbriae in Pseudomonas aeruginosa; Specificity unclear.
  
  
 0.755
pilQ
Type 4 fimbrial biogenesis protein PilQ, similarity to sprot|PILQ_PSEAE (41%) and trembl|Q8XV60 (45%). PilQ is essential for the biogenesis of type IV pili. Its precise function is unknown, but it has been suggested that it may act as a pilus channel in the final stages of pilus assembly. InterPro (PF00263): General (type II) secretion pathway (GSP) D protein SignalP reporting signal peptide; Specificity unclear.
  
   
 0.557
pilA
Tfp structural protein; PilA encodes an unusually short (6.4 kDa)putative pilin precursor showing 100% sequence identity to the conserved N-terminus of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa type IV pilin. (Reference: Doerr et al., 1998 Molecular Microbiology); High confidence in function and specificity.
  
   
 0.520
azo2553
Hypothetical secreted protein. no homology to the data bank. no domains predicted. signal peptide. TMH in signal peptide.
       0.512
azo2551
Conserved hypothetical membrane protein. Homology with PA3897 of P. aeruginosa of 30%. InterPro: Integral membrane protein DUF6. Tigrfam: 2A78: Carboxylate/Amino Acid/Amine Transport. Pfam: Integral membrane protein DUF6. probable 10 TMHs. no signal peptide; Conserved hypothetical protein.
       0.466
pilO
Type 4 fimbrial biogenesis protein PilO, similarity to pir|S77728 (40%). PilO proteins are involved in the assembly of pilin. TMHMM reporting one TMH; Specificity unclear.
