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

defPeptide deformylase; Removes the formyl group from the N-terminal Met of newly synthesized proteins. Requires at least a dipeptide for an efficient rate of reaction. N-terminal L-methionine is a prerequisite for activity but the enzyme has broad specificity at other positions. (167 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
fmt
methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase; Attaches a formyl group to the free amino group of methionyl- tRNA(fMet). The formyl group appears to play a dual role in the initiator identity of N-formylmethionyl-tRNA by promoting its recognition by IF2 and preventing the misappropriation of this tRNA by the elongation apparatus; Belongs to the Fmt family.
 
 0.913
rplU
Ribosomal protein L21; This protein binds to 23S rRNA in the presence of protein L20; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL21 family.
 
 
 0.874
tig
Trigger factor; Involved in protein export. Acts as a chaperone by maintaining the newly synthesized protein in an open conformation. Functions as a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase; Belongs to the FKBP-type PPIase family. Tig subfamily.
  
 
 0.861
rpsT
Ribosomal protein S20; Binds directly to 16S ribosomal RNA.
  
 
 0.857
rpsU
Ribosomal protein S21; InterPro IPR001911:IPR018278; KEGG: ppd:Ppro_3053 30S ribosomal protein S21; PFAM: ribosomal protein S21; SPTR: 30S ribosomal protein S21; TIGRFAM: ribosomal protein S21; IMG reference gene:2505283319; PFAM: Ribosomal protein S21; TIGRFAM: ribosomal protein S21; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bS21 family.
  
 
 0.853
rpsP
COGs: COG0228 Ribosomal protein S16; InterPro IPR000307; KEGG: csc:Csac_2157 30S ribosomal protein S16; PFAM: ribosomal protein S16; SPTR: 30S ribosomal protein S16; TIGRFAM: ribosomal protein S16; IMG reference gene:2505284554; PFAM: Ribosomal protein S16; TIGRFAM: ribosomal protein S16; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bS16 family.
 
   0.850
rplD
Ribosomal protein L4/L1e; Forms part of the polypeptide exit tunnel.
  
 
   0.850
rplI
Ribosomal protein L9; Binds to the 23S rRNA.
 
   0.849
rplT
Ribosomal protein L20; 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.
  
   0.847
rplV
Ribosomal protein L22; The globular domain of the protein is located near the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit, while an extended beta-hairpin is found that lines the wall of the exit tunnel in the center of the 70S ribosome.
