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

espLESX-1 secretion-associated protein EspL; Probably plays a role in host phagosome maturation arrest. (115 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
espB
Secreted ESX-1 substrate protein B, EspB. Conserved alanine and glycine rich protein; Required for host-cell death and may support an EsxA- independent virulence function. Secreted processed form of EspB binds to phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylserine. Inhibits IFN-gamma-induced autophagy in murine macrophages.
  
  
 0.995
eccE1
ESX conserved component EccE1. ESX-1 type VII secretion system protein. Possible membrane protein; Part of the ESX-1 specialized secretion system, which delivers several virulence factors to host cells during infection, including the key virulence factors EsxA (ESAT-6) and EsxB (CFP-10). Belongs to the EccE family.

espH
Rv3867, (MTV027.02), len: 183 aa. EspH, ESX-1 secretion-associated protein, highly similar to the hypothetical proteins from Mycobacterium leprae: Q9CDD6|ML0056 (169 aa) FASTA scores: opt: 403, E(): 1.8e-18, (48.2% identity in 166 aa overlap); Q49730|ML0407|B1620_C3_264|MLCL383.03 (216 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 517, E(): 1.7e-25, (51.45% identity in 175 aa overlap); and O33090|MLCB628.19c (338 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 403, E(): 3.4e-18, (48.2% identity in 166 aa overlap). Also highly similar to O06269|Rv3614c|MTCY07H7B.08 hypothetical 19.8 KDA protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (184 [...]
   
  
 0.853
mycP1
Mycosin-1; May play a dual role in regulation of ESX-1 secretion and virulence. Acts as a protease that cleaves EspB. Essential for ESX-1 function, required for early replication in macrophages and full virulence in mice; Belongs to the peptidase S8 family.
  
  
 0.824
espK
ESX-1 secretion-associated protein EspK. Alanine and proline rich protein; May act as a chaperone that facilitates EspB secretion through an interaction with EccCb1.
  
  
 0.792
recR
Probable recombination protein RecR; May play a role in DNA repair. It seems to be involved in an RecBC-independent recombinational process of DNA repair. It may act with RecF and RecO.
  
  
 0.776
espI
ESX-1 secretion-associated protein EspI. Conserved proline and alanine rich protein; Required to repress ESX-1-mediated secretion under low ATP conditions. This function requires the ATP-binding motif.
  
  
 0.725
espF
Rv3865, (MTCY01A6.03c), len: 103 aa. EspF, ESX-1 secretion-associated protein, showing some similarity to O06268|Rv3615c|MTCY07H7B.07 hypothetical 10.8 KDA protein from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (103 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 198, E(): 7.5e-07, (36.25% identity in 102 aa overlap); Q49723|ML0406|B1620_C2_214|MLCL383.02 hypothetical 11.1 KDA protein from Mycobacterium leprae (106 aa), FASTA scores: opt: 154, E(): 0.00071, (31.05% identity in 103 aa overlap); Belongs to the EspC family.
   
  
 0.669
Rv3446c
Rv3446c, (MTCY77.18c), len: 404 aa. Hypothetical unknown ala-, val-rich protein.
  
  
 0.664
espJ
ESX-1 secretion-associated protein EspJ. Conserved alanine rich protein; Could be involved in regulation of growth and intracellular survival.
