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

PE_PGRS43PE-PGRS family protein PE_PGRS43; Rv2490c, (MTV008.46c), len: 1660 aa. PE_PGRS43,Member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis PE family,PGRS-subfamily of Gly-rich proteins (see Brennan and Delogu, 2002), similar to many e.g. AAK47971|MT3612.1 PE_PGRS family protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain CDC1551 (1715 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 5161, E(): 1.5e-187, (51.7% identity in 1752 aa overlap); etc. (1660 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Rv2082
Rv2082, (MTCY49.21), len: 721 aa. Conserved hypothetical protein. Similar to Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv0029, and to Rv3899c and Rv3900c which may be frameshifted.

PPE42
PPE family protein PPE42; Elicits a high humoral and a low T-cell response. Could be involved in directing the host toward development of a more humoral type of immune response; Belongs to the mycobacterial PPE family.

PPE5
Rv0304c, (MTCY63.9c), len: 2204 aa. PPE5, Member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis PE family (PPE, MPTR),similar to others e.g. Z95324|MTY13E10_16 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (1443 aa), FASTA scores: E(): 0,(50.6% identity in 1403 aa overlap); Y04H_MYCTU|Q10778 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (734 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 989, E(): 0, (42.3% identity in 522 aa overlap). This region is a possible MT-complex-specific genomic island (See Becq et al., 2007).

iniB
Rv0341, (MTCY13E10.01), len: 479 aa. IniB,isoniazid-inducible gene, (see citations below). Protein very Gly-, Ala-rich, similar to cell wall proteins e.g. P27483|GRP_ARATH glycine-rich cell wall structural protein from A.thaliana (338 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 532, E(): 5.2e-13, (39.3% identity in 321 aa overlap). MEME-mast analysis shows similarity to product of upstream gene,Rv0340.

Rv1004c
Probable membrane protein; Rv1004c, (MTCI237.20c), len: 419 aa. Probable membrane protein. Contains repetitive sequences, which have similarities with elastin, and possible N-terminal signal sequence.
 
     0.774
PPE34
PPE family protein PPE34; Facilitates a shift in the ensuing immunity toward the Th2 phenotype and could aid in immune evasion by mycobacteria. Interacts with human Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and triggers functional maturation of human dendritic cells (DCs), leading to secretion of IL- 4, IL-5 and IL-10 from CD4(+) T cells and induction of Th2 immune response. Maturation of DCs involves PI3K, ERK1/2, p38 MAPK and NF- kappa-B signaling pathways.
