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

AMQ93786.1Cell division protein ZapA; Activator of cell division through the inhibition of FtsZ GTPase activity, therefore promoting FtsZ assembly into bundles of protofilaments necessary for the formation of the division Z ring. It is recruited early at mid-cell but it is not essential for cell division. (101 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ftsL
Cell division protein FtsL; Essential cell division protein. May link together the upstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly cytoplasmic, with the downstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly periplasmic.
  
  
 0.761
ftsZ
Cell division protein FtsZ; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity.

pepP
Prolyl aminopeptidase; Exopeptidase able to cleave the peptide bond of the last amino acid if linked to a proline residue; substrate can be as short as a dipeptide; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
     
 0.640
mukB
Cell division protein MukB; Plays a central role in chromosome condensation, segregation and cell cycle progression. Functions as a homodimer, which is essential for chromosome partition. Involved in negative DNA supercoiling in vivo, and by this means organize and compact chromosomes. May achieve or facilitate chromosome segregation by condensation DNA from both sides of a centrally located replisome during cell division; Belongs to the SMC family. MukB subfamily.
  
     0.618
ihfA
Integration host factor subunit alpha; This protein is one of the two subunits of integration host factor, a specific DNA-binding protein that functions in genetic recombination as well as in transcriptional and translational control. Belongs to the bacterial histone-like protein family.
   
    0.611
AMQ93787.1
Hypothetical protein; The crystal structure of Haemophilus influenzae HI0817 showed that this protein forms dimers; function unknown; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the UPF0149 family.
  
  
 0.607
hemB
Delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase; Catalyzes the formation of porphobilinogen from 5-aminolevulinate; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the ALAD family.
      
 0.597
AMQ93406.1
Cell division protein FtsZ; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.
  
 
 
 0.568
AMQ93785.1
5-formyltetrahydrofolate cyclo-ligase; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology; Belongs to the 5-formyltetrahydrofolate cyclo-ligase family.
     
 0.521
zapB
Cell division protein ZapB; Non-essential, abundant cell division factor that is required for proper Z-ring formation. It is recruited early to the divisome by direct interaction with FtsZ, stimulating Z-ring assembly and thereby promoting cell division earlier in the cell cycle. Its recruitment to the Z-ring requires functional FtsA or ZipA.
