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

pilEPutative prepilin like protein; In P. aeruginosa PilE is probable involved in pilus biogenesis and in twitching motility. Similar to trembl|Q82TX3 (50%) and to pir|G82857 (43%). Pfam (PF00114): Pilin (bacterial filament) SignalP reporting Signal peptide. TMHMM reporting one Tmhelix; Function unclear. (134 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pilV
Putative prepilin-like protein; In P. aeruginosa the genes pilV and pilE encode prepilin-like proteins involved in type 4 fimbrial biogenesis. Similar to trembl|Q8PJ74 (46%). SignalP reporting Signal Peptide; Function unclear.
 
  
 0.976
pilX
Putative Tfp pilus assembly protein; In P. aeruginosa the PilW and PilX proteins are membrane located, possess the hydrophobic N-terminus characteristic of prepilin-like proteins, and appear to belong to the GspJ and GspK group of proteins that are required for protein secretion in a wide range of Gram-negative bacteria. These genes are involved in the assembly of type 4 fimbriae. Similar to trembl|Q8PJ76 (34%). TMHMM reporting one TMH. SignalP reporting Signal peptide; Function unclear.

azo2915
Conserved hypothetical secreted protein.
 
  
 0.970
fimT
Putative pre-pilin like protein; In P. aeruginosa fimT and fimU genes contain prepilin-like leader sequences. FimT plays probable a role in fimbrial biogenesis. Similar to trembl|Q87FA9 (30%). Pfam (PF00114): Pilin (bacterial filament) TMHMM reporting one TMH. SignalP reporting Signal peptide; Function unclear.
 
  
 0.964
pilY1B
Putative Tfp pilus assembly protein; PilY1 is a large protein with C-terminal homology to the PilC2 protein of Neisseria gonorrhoeae, thought to be a fimbrial tip-associated adhesin, and which, like PilY1, is involved in fimbrial assembly. PilY1 appears to be located in both the membrane and the external fimbrial fractions. Similar to pir|H82802 (39%). SignalP reporting Signal peptide; Function unclear.
 
  
 0.963
pilN
Type 4 fimbrial biogenesis protein PilN, similarity to trembl|Q82SK2(51%)and to pir|S77727(42%). In P. aeruginosa PilN was found to be required for fimbrial biogenesis by complementation studies using twitching motility and sensitivity to fimbrial-specific phage as indicators of the presence of functional fimbriae. SignalP reporting signal peptide; Specificity unclear.
 
  
 0.809
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.
 
   
 0.789
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.
 
   
 0.788
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.
 
   
 0.770
pilW
Putative type 4 pilus biogenesis protein; In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the PilW and PilX proteins are membrane located, possess the hydrophobic N-terminus characteristic of prepilin-like proteins, and appear to belong to the GspJ and GspK group of proteins that are required for protein secretion in a wide range of Gram-negative bacteria. These findings increase the similarities between the fimbrial biogenesis and the Gsp-based protein-secretion supersystems. Similar to trembl|Q8XVZ8 (29%). Smart (SM00438): Repressor of transcription TMHMM reporting one TMH. SignalP reporting Signal pepti [...]
