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

iscSCysteine desulfurase IscS; Master enzyme that delivers sulfur to a number of partners involved in Fe-S cluster assembly, tRNA modification or cofactor biosynthesis. Catalyzes the removal of elemental sulfur atoms from cysteine to produce alanine. Functions as a sulfur delivery protein for Fe-S cluster synthesis onto IscU, an Fe-S scaffold assembly protein, as well as other S acceptor proteins. (404 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
VM_11435
Fe-S cluster assembly scaffold IscU; A scaffold on which IscS assembles Fe-S clusters. It is likely that Fe-S cluster coordination is flexible as the role of this complex is to build and then hand off Fe-S clusters.
 
 0.999
thiI
tRNA 4-thiouridine(8) synthase ThiI; Catalyzes the ATP-dependent transfer of a sulfur to tRNA to produce 4-thiouridine in position 8 of tRNAs, which functions as a near-UV photosensor. Also catalyzes the transfer of sulfur to the sulfur carrier protein ThiS, forming ThiS-thiocarboxylate. This is a step in the synthesis of thiazole, in the thiamine biosynthesis pathway. The sulfur is donated as persulfide by IscS.

moeB
Molybdopterin-synthase adenylyltransferase MoeB; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
   
 0.973
cyaY
Iron donor protein CyaY; Involved in iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster assembly. May act as a regulator of Fe-S biogenesis.
  
 0.972
iscR
Fe-S cluster assembly transcriptional regulator IscR; Regulates the transcription of several operons and genes involved in the biogenesis of Fe-S clusters and Fe-S-containing proteins.
 
  
 0.970
nfuA
Fe-S biogenesis protein NfuA; Involved in iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis. Binds a 4Fe-4S cluster, can transfer this cluster to apoproteins, and thereby intervenes in the maturation of Fe/S proteins. Could also act as a scaffold/chaperone for damaged Fe/S proteins.
  
 
 0.969
tusA
tRNA 2-thiouridine(34) synthase TusA; Sulfur carrier protein which probably makes part of a sulfur- relay system; Belongs to the sulfur carrier protein TusA family.
   
 0.967
VM_04115
Hypothetical protein; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the sulfur carrier protein TusA family.
   
 0.967
hscB
Co-chaperone HscB; Co-chaperone involved in the maturation of iron-sulfur cluster-containing proteins. Seems to help targeting proteins to be folded toward HscA; Belongs to the HscB family.
 
 
 0.967
fdx
Ferredoxin, 2Fe-2S type, ISC system; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
