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

PE5PE family protein PE5; Important for the siderophore-mediated iron-acquisition function of ESX-3. May play a pivotal role in the evasion of host immune response by M.tuberculosis. Mediates production of IL-10 via activation of the p38 and ERK1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways. (102 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
PPE4
PPE family protein PPE4; Important for the siderophore-mediated iron-acquisition function of ESX-3; Belongs to the mycobacterial PPE family.
     
 0.990
eccB3
ESX conserved component EccB3. ESX-3 type VII secretion system protein. Possible membrane protein; An ATPase (By similarity). Part of the ESX-3 specialized secretion system, which is important for iron and zinc uptake or homeostasis.; Belongs to the EccB family.
     
 0.924
esxG
ESAT-6 like protein EsxG (conserved protein TB9.8); EsxG, in complex with EsxH, disrupts ESCRT function and impairs host phagosome maturation, thereby promoting intracellular bacterial growth. The complex acts by interacting, via EsxH, with the host hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (HGS/HRS), a component of the ESCRT machinery. EsxG stabilizes EsxH in the host cytosol.
     
 0.912
eccA3
ESX conserved component EccA3. ESX-3 type VII secretion system protein; Part of the ESX-3 specialized secretion system, which is important for iron and zinc uptake or homeostasis. EccA3 exhibits ATPase activity and may provide energy for the export of ESX-3 substrates (By similarity). Belongs to the CbxX/CfxQ family.
     
 0.894
eccC3
ESX conserved component EccC3. ESX-3 type VII secretion system protein. Possible membrane protein; Part of the ESX-3 specialized secretion system, which is important for iron and zinc uptake or homeostasis.
     
 0.881
esxH
Low molecular weight protein antigen 7 EsxH (10 kDa antigen) (CFP-7) (protein TB10.4); EsxH, in complex with EsxG, disrupts ESCRT function and impairs host phagosome maturation, thereby promoting intracellular bacterial growth. The complex acts by interacting, via EsxH, with the host hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (HGS/HRS), a component of the ESCRT machinery. Belongs to the WXG100 family. ESAT-6 subfamily.
     
 0.854
PPE37
Rv2123, (MTCY261.19), len: 473 aa. PPE37 (alternate gene name: irg2), member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis PPE family of proteins but the C-terminus is not repetitive (see citation below).
     
 0.843
espG3
ESX-3 secretion-associated protein EspG3; Specific chaperone for cognate PE/PPE proteins. Plays an important role in preventing aggregation of PE/PPE dimers.
     
 0.715
eccD3
ESX-3 secretion system protein EccD3; Part of the ESX-3 specialized secretion system, which is important for iron and zinc uptake or homeostasis.
     
 0.671
PE35
PE family-related protein PE35; Plays a major role in RD1-associated pathogenesis, and may contribute to the establishment and maintenance of M.tuberculosis infection. Together with PPE68, stimulates the secretion of IL-10 and MCP-1 from human macrophages, via the interaction with human Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2).
