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.

higB2Conserved protein; Putative toxic component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Its cognate antitoxin would be HigA2. Belongs to the mycobacterial HigB family. (201 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
higA2
Transcriptional regulatory protein; Putative antitoxin component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Its cognate toxin would be HigB2.
   
 0.997
higA3
Possible transcriptional regulatory protein; Putative antitoxin component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Its cognate toxin would be HigB3.
 
   
 0.953
higB
Possible toxin HigB; Toxic component of an atypical, type II toxin-antitoxin chaperone (TAC) system. Upon expression in M.smegmatis inhibits colony formation and cell growth. Ectopic expression in wild-type M.tuberculosis has no effect on cell growth; ectopic expression in a triple higB1-higA1-Rv1957 (delta TAC) disruption mutant causes growth arrest, killing a considerable proportion of the cells. Increased ectopic expression leads to decreased levels of IdeR- and Zur-regulated genes as well as cleavage within the mRNA region of tmRNA (transfer-mRNA), strongly suggesting it is an endo [...]

mazE3
Possible antitoxin MazE3; Antitoxin component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Upon expression in E.coli and M.smegmatis neutralizes the effect of cognate toxin MazF3. Overexpression of MazE3 alone decreased persister cells formation in M.smegmatis upon challenge with gentamicin or kanamycin.
      
 0.783
higA
Possible antitoxin HigA; Antitoxin component of an atypical, type II toxin-antitoxin chaperone (TAC) system. Upon expression in M.smegmatis neutralizes the effect of cognate toxin HigB1. Neutralization of HigB1 toxin in E.coli or M.marinum also requires SecB-like chaperone Rv1957, making this the first toxin-antitoxin chaperone (TAC) system. Antitoxin aggregation and degradation are prevented by the chaperone.
 
   
 0.777
vapC46
Possible toxin VapC46. Contains PIN domain; Toxic component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. An RNase (By similarity). Upon expression in M.smegmatis inhibits colony formation. Its toxic effect is neutralized by coexpression with cognate antitoxin VapB46.; Belongs to the PINc/VapC protein family.

Rv2023c
Hypothetical protein; Rv2023c, (MTV018.10c), len: 119 aa. Hypothetical protein, alternative upstream start possible.
       0.709
secBL
Hypothetical protein; Chaperone component of an atypical, type II toxin-antitoxin chaperone (TAC) system. Prevents antitoxin HigA1 aggregation in vitro at a 1:3 chaperone:antitoxin ratio, probably also protects antitoxin HigA1 from protease. Required for neutralization of toxin HigB1 upon ectopic expression in Mycobacterium marinum or E.coli. When expressed in E.coli complements a secB deletion, restores export of OmpA and MBP and inhibits aggregation of proOmpC although it is less efficient than endogenous SecB. Complements the general chaperone function of E.coli SecB less well; Belo [...]

Rv0268c
Hypothetical protein; Putative antitoxin component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system; however the expected toxin coding sequence is not found adjacent to this gene.
   
  
 0.595
Rv0298
Hypothetical protein; Antitoxin component of a type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Upon expression in M.smegmatis neutralizes the effect of cognate toxin Rv0299.
