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.

eccE1ESX 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. (462 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
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.
 
  
 0.995
eccB1
ESX conserved component EccB1. ESX-1 type VII secretion system protein. Possible membrane protein; An ATPase. 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 EccB family.
 
 
 
 0.966
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.
 
 
 
 0.939
eccCa1
ESX-1 secretion system protein EccCa1; 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).
  
 
 
 0.913
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.
  
  
 0.913
eccD1
ESX-1 secretion system protein EccD1; 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).
 
  
 0.912
espL
ESX-1 secretion-associated protein EspL; Probably plays a role in host phagosome maturation arrest.
  
  
 0.885
esxA
6 kDa early secretory antigenic target EsxA (ESAT-6); A secreted protein that plays a number of roles in modulating the host's immune response to infection as well as being responsible for bacterial escape into the host cytoplasm. Acts as a strong host (human) T-cell antigen. Inhibits IL- 12 p40 (IL12B) and TNF-alpha expression by infected host (mouse) macrophages, reduces the nitric oxide response by about 75%. In mice previously exposed to the bacterium, elicits high level of IFN-gamma production by T-cells upon subsequent challenge by M.tuberculosis, in the first phase of a protecti [...]

eccCb1
ESX conserved component EccCb1. ESX-1 type VII secretion system 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). EccCb1 may link the cytosolic components of the system with the membrane components.
