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

infAProbable translation initiation factor if-1 InfA; One of the essential components for the initiation of protein synthesis. Stabilizes the binding of IF-2 and IF-3 on the 30S subunit to which N-formylmethionyl-tRNA(fMet) subsequently binds. Helps modulate mRNA selection, yielding the 30S pre-initiation complex (PIC). Upon addition of the 50S ribosomal subunit IF-1, IF-2 and IF-3 are released leaving the mature 70S translation initiation complex. (73 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
rpsL
30S ribosomal protein S12 RpsL; With S4 and S5 plays an important role in translational accuracy.
 
 0.999
rpsH
30S ribosomal protein S8 RpsH; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA central domain where it helps coordinate assembly of the platform of the 30S subunit; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS8 family.
 
 0.999
rpsK
30S ribosomal protein S11 RpsK; Located on the platform of the 30S subunit, it bridges several disparate RNA helices of the 16S rRNA. Forms part of the Shine- Dalgarno cleft in the 70S ribosome; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS11 family.
 
 0.999
rpsM
30S ribosomal protein S13 RpsM; Located at the top of the head of the 30S subunit, it contacts several helices of the 16S rRNA. In the 70S ribosome it contacts the 23S rRNA (bridge B1a) and protein L5 of the 50S subunit (bridge B1b), connecting the 2 subunits; these bridges are implicated in subunit movement. Contacts the tRNAs in the A and P-sites. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS13 family.
 
 0.999
rpsJ
30S ribosomal protein S10 RpsJ (transcription antitermination factor NusE); Involved in the binding of tRNA to the ribosomes. Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS10 family.
 
 0.998
rplD
50S ribosomal protein L4 RplD; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, this protein initially binds near the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly. It makes multiple contacts with different domains of the 23S rRNA in the assembled 50S subunit and ribosome.
  
 0.998
rpsS
30S ribosomal protein S19 RpsS; Protein S19 forms a complex with S13 that binds strongly to the 16S ribosomal RNA.
 
 0.998
rpsC
30S ribosomal protein S3 RpsC; Binds the lower part of the 30S subunit head. Binds mRNA in the 70S ribosome, positioning it for translation; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS3 family.
 
 0.998
rpsQ
30S ribosomal protein S17 RpsQ; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds specifically to the 5'-end of 16S ribosomal RNA.
 
 0.998
rpsE
30S ribosomal protein S5 RpsE; With S4 and S12 plays an important role in translational accuracy; Belongs to the universal ribosomal protein uS5 family.
