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.

infBTranslation initiation factor aIF-2; Function in general translation initiation by promoting the binding of the formylmethionine-tRNA to ribosomes. Seems to function along with eIF-2. (590 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpl2
Ribosomal protein L2; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins. Required for association of the 30S and 50S subunits to form the 70S ribosome, for tRNA binding and peptide bond formation. It has been suggested to have peptidyltransferase activity; this is somewhat controversial. Makes several contacts with the 16S rRNA in the 70S ribosome. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL2 family.
 
 0.990
rps6e
PFAM: Ribosomal protein S6e; KEGG: mbu:Mbur_0224 30S ribosomal protein S6e; Belongs to the eukaryotic ribosomal protein eS6 family.
 
 
 0.989
rpl7ae
Ribosomal protein L7Ae/L30e/S12e/Gadd45; Multifunctional RNA-binding protein that recognizes the K- turn motif in ribosomal RNA, the RNA component of RNase P, box H/ACA, box C/D and box C'/D' sRNAs.
 
 
 0.989
rps3
Ribosomal protein S3; Binds the lower part of the 30S subunit head. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS3 family.
 
 
 0.987
rps11
Ribosomal protein S11P; Located on the platform of the 30S subunit. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS11 family.
 
 0.983
rps2
Ribosomal protein S2; KEGG: mbu:Mbur_2393 30S ribosomal protein S2; TIGRFAM: ribosomal protein S2; PFAM: ribosomal protein S2; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS2 family.
 
 0.981
rps5
Ribosomal protein S5; With S4 and S12 plays an important role in translational accuracy.
 
 0.980
rpl15
Ribosomal protein L15; Binds to the 23S rRNA; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uL15 family.
 
 0.979
rps4
Ribosomal protein S4; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the body of the 30S subunit.
 
 
 0.974
truB
rRNA pseudouridine synthase; Could be responsible for synthesis of pseudouridine from uracil-55 in the psi GC loop of transfer RNAs; Belongs to the pseudouridine synthase TruB family. Type 2 subfamily.
