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

pilTTwitching motility protein; Tfp retraction protein PilT, involved in the twitching motility mechanism together with PilU,; High confidence in function and specificity. (346 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pilD
Prepilin peptidase; Cleaves type-4 fimbrial leader sequence and methylates the N- terminal (generally Phe) residue.
 
   
 0.861
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.
 
   
 0.813
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.
 
   
 0.810
gspF1
General secretion pathway protein F; Type II secretory pathway component F,; Specificity unclear.
 
   
 0.809
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 [...]
 
   
 0.802
pilU2
Twitching motility protein; Tfp retraction protein PilU is involved in the Twitching Motility mechanism,; High confidence in function and specificity.
 
  
0.661
azo3467
Conserved hypothetical protein; Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-binding protein, which is involved in PLP homeostasis; Belongs to the pyridoxal phosphate-binding protein YggS/PROSC family.
       0.611
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.
 
  
 0.606
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.
 
   
 0.593
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.
