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

minEPossible septum site-determining protein MinE; Prevents the cell division inhibition by proteins MinC and MinD at internal division sites while permitting inhibition at polar sites. This ensures cell division at the proper site by restricting the formation of a division septum at the midpoint of the long axis of the cell. (86 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
minD
Putative septum site-determining protein MinD.
 
 
 0.998
lepB-2
Signal peptidase I; Belongs to the peptidase S26 family.
   
    0.980
minC
Possible septum site-determining protein; Cell division inhibitor that blocks the formation of polar Z ring septums. Rapidly oscillates between the poles of the cell to destabilize FtsZ filaments that have formed before they mature into polar Z rings. Prevents FtsZ polymerization.
 
  
 0.927
SYNW2218
Putative cell division inhibitor.
   
  
 0.769
SYNW1969
Conserved hypothetical protein.
       0.643
ctpA
Putative carboxyl-terminal processing protease; Belongs to the peptidase S41A family.
  
    0.601
SYNW1973
Possible transcriptional regulator, luxR family.
       0.584
lepB
Leader peptidase I; Belongs to the peptidase S26 family.
   
    0.581
petB
Apocytochrome b6; Component of the cytochrome b6-f complex, which mediates electron transfer between photosystem II (PSII) and photosystem I (PSI), cyclic electron flow around PSI, and state transitions.
       0.473
rne
Ribonuclease E.
 
    0.459
