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

prfCPeptide chain release factor RF-3; Increases the formation of ribosomal termination complexes and stimulates activities of RF-1 and RF-2. It binds guanine nucleotides and has strong preference for UGA stop codons. It may interact directly with the ribosome. The stimulation of RF-1 and RF-2 is significantly reduced by GTP and GDP, but not by GMP. (529 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
prfB
Peptide chain release factor RF-2; Peptide chain release factor 2 directs the termination of translation in response to the peptide chain termination codons UGA and UAA. Acts as a peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase. In the presence of truncated mRNA in the 70S ribosome, ArfA and RF2 interact such that the GGQ peptide hydrolysis motif of RF2 rises into the peptidyl-transferase center and releases the ribosome. Recruited by ArfA to rescue stalled ribosomes in the absence of a normal stop codon.

prfA
Peptide chain release factor RF-1; Peptide chain release factor 1 directs the termination of translation in response to the peptide chain termination codons UAG and UAA.
   
 
 0.986
frr
Ribosome recycling factor; Responsible for the release of ribosomes from messenger RNA at the termination of protein biosynthesis. May increase the efficiency of translation by recycling ribosomes from one round of translation to another.
   
 
 0.957
rpmA
50S ribosomal subunit protein L27; Protein involved in structural constituent of ribosome and translation.
   
 
 0.949
rplL
50S ribosomal subunit protein L7/L12; The binding site for several of the GTPase factors involved in protein synthesis (IF-2, EF-Tu, EF-G and RF3). Is thus essential for accurate translation. Deletion of 1 of the L12 dimers from the ribosome (by deleting the binding site on L10) leads to decreased IF-2 association with the 70S ribosome and decreased stimulation of the GTPase activity of EF-G; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL12 family.
   
 
 0.944
rplI
50S ribosomal subunit protein L9; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds very close to the 3' end of the 23S rRNA; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL9 family.
   
 
 0.934
rplT
50S ribosomal subunit protein L20; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds close to the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly.
  
 
 0.923
rplS
50S ribosomal subunit protein L19; This protein is located at the 30S-50S ribosomal subunit interface. In the 70S ribosome it has been modeled to make two contacts with the 16S rRNA of the 30S subunit forming part of bridges B6 and B8. In the 3.5 A resolved structures L14 and L19 interact and together make contact with the 16S rRNA. The protein conformation is quite different between the 50S and 70S structures, which may be necessary for translocation.
   
   0.922
rplU
50S ribosomal subunit protein L21; This protein binds to 23S rRNA in the presence of protein L20.
   
 
 0.915
rpmG
50S ribosomal subunit protein L33; Protein involved in structural constituent of ribosome and translation.
