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

apaAlanine and proline-rich secreted protein Apa; A potent antigen in animals immunized with live bacteria, it induces a strong delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) in immunized animals. Elicits a mostly Th1 type of T-cell response in healthy humans; induces IFN-gamma production from CD4(+) and CD8(+) cells. Functions as an adhesin, binds to mouse macrophages via mannose residues. Might interact via host CD209. Belongs to the Apa family. (325 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
mpt64
Immunogenic protein Mpt64 (antigen Mpt64/MPB64); Rv1980c, (MT2032, MTCY39.39), len: 228 aa. Mpt64 (alternate gene name: mpb64), immunogenic protein (alternate gene name: mpb64) (see citations below),identical to MPT64|MPB64 from Mycobacterium bovis (228 aa). Similar to Rv3036c|MTV012.51c from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Exported protein containing a N-terminal signal sequence: see notes below about proteomics. Predicted possible vaccine candidate (See Zvi et al.,2008).

mpt63
Immunogenic protein Mpt63 (antigen Mpt63/MPB63) (16 kDa immunoprotective extracellular protein); Rv1926c, (MT1977, MTCY09F9.38), len: 159 aa. Mpt63 (alternate gene name: mpb63), immunogenic protein (see citations below), identical to MPT63|MPB63 from Mycobacterium bovis (159 aa). Exported protein containing a N-terminal signal sequence: see notes below about proteomics. Predicted possible vaccine candidate (See Zvi et al., 2008).
   
  
 0.804
modC
Probable molybdenum-transport ATP-binding protein ABC transporter ModC; Part of the ABC transporter complex ModABC involved in molybdenum import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Molybdate importer (TC 3.A.1.8) family.
  
  
 0.801
PE_PGRS61
PE-PGRS family-related protein PE_PGRS61; Mediates Ca(2+)-dependent up-regulation of the anti- inflammatory cytokine IL-10; Belongs to the mycobacterial PE family. PGRS subfamily.
      
 0.801
modA
Probable molybdate-binding lipoprotein ModA; Involved in the transport of molybdenum into the cell. Part of the binding-protein-dependent transport system ModABCD (By similarity).
     
 0.682
lpqH
19 kDa lipoprotein antigen precursor LpqH; Based on its structure might be involved in ligand transport (By similarity); Belongs to the mycobacterial 19 kDa antigen family.
   
  
 0.681
groES
10 kDa chaperonin GroES (protein CPN10) (protein GroES) (BCG-a heat shock protein) (10 kDa antigen); Binds to Cpn60 in the presence of Mg-ATP and suppresses the ATPase activity of the latter; Belongs to the GroES chaperonin family.
   
  
 0.657
esxB
10 kDa culture filtrate antigen EsxB (LHP) (CFP10); A secreted protein. Acts as a strong host (human) T-cell antigen. Involved in translocation of bacteria from the host (human) phagolysosome to the host cytoplasm. Might serve as a chaperone to prevent uncontrolled membrane lysis by its partner EsxA; native protein binds poorly to artificial liposomes in the absence or presence of EsxA. EsxA and EsxA-EsxB are cytotoxic to pneumocytes. EsxB (and EsxA-EsxB but not EsxA alone) activates human neutrophils; EsxB transiently induces host (human) intracellular Ca(2+) mobility in a dose-depend [...]
   
  
 0.653
mpt53
Soluble secreted antigen Mpt53 precursor; Disulfide oxidoreductase that catalyzes the oxidation of reduced, unfolded secreted proteins to form disulfide bonds. Despite a weak homology to thioredoxin this cannot serve as a substrate for thioredoxin reductase.
      
 0.652
esxA
6 kDa early secretory antigenic target EsxA (ESAT-6); A secreted protein that plays a number of roles in modulating the host's immune response to infection as well as being responsible for bacterial escape into the host cytoplasm. Acts as a strong host (human) T-cell antigen. Inhibits IL- 12 p40 (IL12B) and TNF-alpha expression by infected host (mouse) macrophages, reduces the nitric oxide response by about 75%. In mice previously exposed to the bacterium, elicits high level of IFN-gamma production by T-cells upon subsequent challenge by M.tuberculosis, in the first phase of a protecti [...]
