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

Rv2164c
Rv2164c, (MTCY270.04), len: 384 aa. Probable pro-rich conserved membrane protein, equivalent to ML0907|AL022602 putative conserved membrane protein from Mycobacterium leprae (377 aa) (AL022602), FASTA scores: opt: 1495, E(): 1.7e-56, (62.217% identity in 397 aa overlap). A core mycobacterial gene; conserved in mycobacterial strains (See Marmiesse et al., 2004).
  
 
 0.988
ftsZ
Cell 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.
 
  
 0.987
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.
 
 0.984
rsmH
Conserved protein; Specifically methylates the N4 position of cytidine in position 1402 (C1402) of 16S rRNA; Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. RsmH family.
 
  
 0.972
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).
