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

fbpBDiacylglycerol acyltransferase/mycolyltransferase Ag85B; The antigen 85 proteins (FbpA, FbpB, FbpC) are responsible for the high affinity of mycobacteria for fibronectin, a large adhesive glycoprotein, which facilitates the attachment of M.tuberculosis to murine alveolar macrophages (AMs). They also help to maintain the integrity of the cell wall by catalyzing the transfer of mycolic acids to cell wall arabinogalactan and through the synthesis of alpha,alpha- trehalose dimycolate (TDM, cord factor). They catalyze the transfer of a mycoloyl residue from one molecule of alpha,alpha-treha [...] (325 aa)

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 [...]

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).

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 [...]

lipY
Triacylglycerol lipase; Responsible for the utilization of stored long-chain triacylglycerol (TG) during dormancy and reactivation stage of the infection cycle. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of long-chain triacylglycerol with high specific activity; In the C-terminal section; belongs to the 'GDXG' lipolytic enzyme family.

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.

dagK
Diacylglycerol kinase; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of diacylglycerol (DAG) into phosphatidic acid. Is involved in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylinositol mannosides (PIMs), probably via a role in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylinositol (PI), a PIM precursor, which is derived from phosphatidic acid (By similarity); Belongs to the diacylglycerol/lipid kinase family.
