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

devRTwo component transcriptional regulatory protein DevR (probably LuxR/UhpA-family); Member of the two-component regulatory system DevR/DevS (also called DosR/DosS) involved in onset of the dormancy response. Regulates an approximately 48-member regulon. When phosphorylated binds and activates the promoter of DevR regulon genes in response to hypoxia. The presence of target DNA increases stability of phospho-DevR in vitro. Activates its own transcription under hypoxic but not aerobic conditions, probably binds as a dimer to tandem binding sites within the devR and hspX promoters. Accepts [...] (217 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
devS
Two component sensor histidine kinase DevS; Member of the two-component regulatory system DevR/DevS (DosR/DosS) involved in onset of the dormancy response. Regulates an approximately 48-member regulon. Required for full induction of the DevR (DosR) regulon; acts later than DosT to positively regulate expression of the DevR regulon during adaptation to anaerobiosis. Characterized as an oxygen sensor; O(2) acts as a switch, with O(2)-bound Fe(2+) protein inactive in autophosphorylation. Has also been suggested to act as a redox sensor, or perhaps as a dual oxygen/redox sensor. Autophosph [...]

dosT
Two component sensor histidine kinase DosT; Interacts with the two-component regulatory system DevR/DevS (DosR/DosS) involved in onset of the dormancy response. Required for full induction of the DevR (DosR) regulon; required during early adaptation to anaerobiosis, to start induction of the DevR regulon. May act as a direct hypoxia/oxygen sensor. O(2) acts as a switch, with the Fe(2+)-O(2)-bound protein inactive in autophosphorylation. Autophosphorylates under anaerobic but not aerobic conditions, binding of NO or CO has no effect on autophosphorylation. Binds a number of gases; O(2), [...]

Rv3134c
Rv3134c, (MTCY03A2.240, len: 268 aa. Universal stress protein family protein. Ala-, Val- rich (see citations below), related to other hypothetical Mycobacterium tuberculosis proteins e.g. O53474|Rv2028c|MTV018.15c (279 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 562,E(): 3.2e-28, (40.65% identity in 273 aa overlap); O06188|Rv2624c|MTCY01A10.08 (272 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 458, E(): 1.1e-21, (36.55% identity in 271 aa overlap); O53472|R2026c|MTV018.13c (294 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 232,E(): 1.9e-07, (30.45% identity in 276 aa overlap); etc. Shares some similarity with other hypothetical proteins from Strept [...]

TB31.7
Universal stress protein family protein TB31.7; May play a role in the establishment of a persistent infection (latency) in the host, as strains without this gene are hypervirulent. Overexpression of the protein retards growth in culture; Glu-15 and Ala-117 mutant proteins which bind less ATP do not show this retardation, suggesting growth may be regulated through an ATP- dependent function.

Rv2028c
Rv2028c, (MTV018.15c), len: 279 aa. Universal stress protein family protein, highly similar to many, contains IPR006016 UspA domain.

narX
Probable nitrate reductase NarX; Does not seem to have nitrate reductase activity. In the N-terminal section; belongs to the nitrate reductase alpha subunit family. In the C-terminal section; belongs to the nitrate reductase gamma subunit family.

pfkB
6-phosphofructokinase PfkB (phosphohexokinase) (phosphofructokinase); Catalyzes the phosphorylation of D-fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate by ATP, the first committing step of glycolysis.

Rv0569
Conserved protein; Rv0569, (MTV039.07), len: 88 aa. Conserved protein. C-terminus highly similar to AAA63065.1|U15184|MLU15184_10 hypothetical protein from Mycobacterium leprae (53 aa),FASTA scores: opt: 140, E(): 0.0046, (64.7% identity in 34 aa overlap). Also similar to T36824|SCI35.11 hypothetical protein from Streptomyces coelicolor (64 aa); and N-terminus of T36956 probable DNA-binding protein from Streptomyces coelicolor (323 aa). Also highly similar to Rv2302|MTCY339.07c|NP_216818.1|NC_000962 conserved hypothetical protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (80 aa), FASTA scores: o [...]

hspX
Heat shock protein HspX (alpha-crystallin homolog) (14 kDa antigen) (HSP16.3); Acts as a chaperone, as it has a significant ability to suppress the thermal denaturation of alcohol dehydrogenase. Cells overexpressing this gene grow more slowly than wild-type cells, and are less susceptible to autolysis following saturation of the culture in vitro, suggesting this protein may slow down the growth rate of M.tuberculosis in culture and by extension during macrophage infection. Belongs to the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family.

narS
Possible two component sensor kinase; Member of the two-component regulatory system NarS/NarL involved in gene expression during aerobic nitrate metabolism. Plays therefore a crucial role in anaerobic survival of mycobacteria in host. Functions as a sensor protein kinase which is autophosphorylated at a histidine residue and transfers its phosphate group to the conserved aspartic acid residue in the regulatory domain of NarL. In turn, NarL binds to the upstream promoter regions of target genes to regulate their expression during aerobic nitrate metabolism.
