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

ahpCAlkyl hydroperoxide reductase; Thiol-specific peroxidase that catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and alcohols, respectively. Plays a role in cell protection against oxidative stress by detoxifying peroxides. Is important for survival under desiccation conditions. Not required for virulence although is necessary for nasal colonization. (189 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ahpF
Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase, subunit F, putative; Serves to protect the cell against DNA damage by alkyl hydroperoxides. It can use either NADH or NADPH as electron donor for direct reduction of redox dyes or of alkyl hydroperoxides when combined with the AhpC protein (By similarity); Belongs to the class-II pyridine nucleotide-disulfide oxidoreductase family.

dnaK
DNAk protein, putative; Acts as a chaperone; Belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family.
   
 
 0.802
katA
Catalase; Decomposes hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen; serves to protect cells from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide. Involved in resistance to paraquat when fur is absent and to tert-butyl hydroperoxide. Is important for survival under glucose starvation and desiccation conditions. Not required for virulence although is necessary for nasal colonization.

trxA
Thioredoxin; Component of the thioredoxin-thioredoxin reductase system. Participates in various redox reactions through the reversible oxidation of its active center dithiol to a disulfide and catalyzes dithiol-disulfide exchange reactions (By similarity).
