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

ftsZCell division protein FtsZ; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity. (379 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sepF
Conserved hypothetical protein; Cell division protein that is part of the divisome complex and is recruited early to the Z-ring. Probably stimulates Z-ring formation, perhaps through the cross-linking of FtsZ protofilaments. Its function overlaps with FtsA.
  
 
 0.997
ftsW
FtsW-like protein FtsW; Peptidoglycan polymerase that is essential for cell division. Belongs to the SEDS family. FtsW subfamily.
 
 
 0.997
ftsQ
Possible cell division protein FtsQ; Essential cell division protein.
  
  
 0.991
pbpB
Probable penicillin-binding membrane protein PbpB; Synthesis of cross-linked peptidoglycan from the lipid intermediates; Belongs to the transpeptidase family.
 
  
 0.987
murG
Undecaprenyldiphospho-muramoylpentapeptide beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase; Cell wall formation. Catalyzes the transfer of a GlcNAc subunit on undecaprenyl-pyrophosphoryl-MurNAc-pentapeptide (lipid intermediate I) to form undecaprenyl-pyrophosphoryl-MurNAc- (pentapeptide)GlcNAc (lipid intermediate II).
 
 
 0.981
wag31
Diviva family protein Wag31; Important for maintaining cell shape and cell wall integrity by localizing peptidoglycan synthesis to the cell poles. Protects PbpB (PBP3, FtsI) from oxidative stress-induced cleavage.
  
  
 0.974
rodA
Probable cell division protein RodA; Rv0017c, (MTCY10H4.17c), len: 469 aa. Probable rodA (alternate gene name: ftsW), cell division protein,integral membrane protein. Belongs to the FTSW/RODA/SPOVE family.
 
 
 0.964
murC
Probable UDP-N-acetylmuramate-alanine ligase MurC; Cell wall formation; Belongs to the MurCDEF family.
 
 
 0.953
murD
Probable UDP-N-acetylmuramoylalanine-D-glutamate ligase MurD; Cell wall formation. Catalyzes the addition of glutamate to the nucleotide precursor UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine (UMA). Belongs to the MurCDEF family.
 
  
 0.923
recA
RecA protein (recombinase A) [contains: endonuclease PI-MTUI (MTU RecA intein)]; Can catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP in the presence of single- stranded DNA, the ATP-dependent uptake of single-stranded DNA by duplex DNA, and the ATP-dependent hybridization of homologous single-stranded DNAs. It interacts with LexA causing its activation and leading to its autocatalytic cleavage.
