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

sufBFeS cluster assembly protein sufB. (499 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sufC
FeS assembly ATPase SufC.
 
 0.999
sufD
FeS cluster assembly protein sufD.
 
 
 0.999
sufA
FeS cluster assembly protein sufA; Belongs to the HesB/IscA family.
  
 
 0.956
sufS
Cysteine desulfurase; Cysteine desulfurases mobilize the sulfur from L-cysteine to yield L-alanine, an essential step in sulfur metabolism for biosynthesis of a variety of sulfur-containing biomolecules. Component of the suf operon, which is activated and required under specific conditions such as oxidative stress and iron limitation. Acts as a potent selenocysteine lyase in vitro, that mobilizes selenium from L- selenocysteine. Selenocysteine lyase activity is however unsure in vivo.
 
 
 0.949
sufE
Cysteine desulfuration protein sufE.
 
   0.912
nfuA
Fe/S biogenesis protein nfuA; Involved in iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis. Binds a 4Fe-4S cluster, can transfer this cluster to apoproteins, and thereby intervenes in the maturation of Fe/S proteins. Could also act as a scaffold/chaperone for damaged Fe/S proteins.
  
 
 0.748
erpA
Iron sulfur cluster insertion protein; Required for insertion of 4Fe-4S clusters for at least IspG.
   
 
 0.456
