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

espG5Conserved protein; Specific chaperone for cognate PE/PPE proteins. Plays an important role in preventing aggregation of PE/PPE dimers. Belongs to the EspG family. (300 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
PPE15
PPE family protein PPE15; May play a critical role in the homeostasis of triacylglycerol-containing lipid droplets in M.tuberculosis and influence the entry of the pathogen into a dormant state.
    
   0.999
PPE41
PPE family protein PPE41; The PE25/PPE41 dimer induces both a strong humoral and cellular immune response. The dimer induces necrosis, but not apoptosis, in mouse macrophage cells. It also induces activation and maturation of mouse dendritic cells and drives Th2-biased immune responses.
   
 
 0.999
PE25
PE family protein PE25; The PE25/PPE41 dimer induces both a strong humoral and cellular immune response. PE25 protein alone induces low response. The dimer induces necrosis, but not apoptosis, in mouse macrophage cells. It also induces activation and maturation of mouse dendritic cells and drives Th2-biased immune responses.

eccC5
ESX conserved component EccC5. ESX-5 type VII secretion system protein; Part of the ESX-5 specialized secretion system, which is responsible for the secretion of EsxN and a number of PE_PGRS and PPE proteins, including PPE41.

PE8
Rv1040c, (MTCY10G2.09), len: 275 aa. PE8, Member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis PE family (see citation below), most similar to AL008967|MTV002_34 Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (275 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1111, E(): 0, (68.6% identity in 283 aa overlap). This region is a possible MT-complex-specific genomic island (See Becq et al., 2007).

PPE44, Member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis PPE family, highly similar to many e.g. downstream ORF O33310|Rv2768c|MTV002.33c from M. tuberculosis (394 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1135, E(): 2.2e-53, (62.15% identity in 391 aa overlap); and P96362|Rv1039c|MTCY10G2.10 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (391 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 1010, E(): 1e-46, (55.95% identity in 395 aa overlap). Equivalent to AAK47159 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain CDC1551 (402 aa) but shorter 20 aa. Start changed since first submission (-20 aa).
