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

sle1Autolysin precursor, putative; Peptidoglycan hydrolase involved in the splitting of the septum during cell division. Binds to both alpha and beta-chains of human fibrinogen as well as fibronectin, which suggests a role in the colonization of host factor-coated material or host tissue. Also exhibits lytic activity against S.carnosus and S.aureus cells but not against M.luteus cells. (334 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lytN
Cell wall hydrolase, putative; Probably involved in peptidoglycan hydrolysis.
  
   
 0.787
guaA
GMP synthase, putative; Catalyzes the synthesis of GMP from XMP.
    
  0.675
lytH
Conserved hypothetical protein; Probably involved in cell-wall metabolism (By similarity). May have autolysin activity. Belongs to the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase 3 family.
   
 0.646
lytM
Peptidoglycan hydrolase, putative; Peptidoglycan hydrolase (autolysin) specifically acting on polyglycine interpeptide bridges of the cell wall peptidoglycan. Belongs to the peptidase M23B family.
   
 
 0.627
atl
Bifunctional autolysin precursor, putative; Endohydrolysis of the di-N-acetylchitobiosyl unit in high- mannose glycopeptides and glycoproteins containing the -[(Man)5(GlcNAc)2]-Asn structure. One N-acetyl-D-glucosamine residue remains attached to the protein; the rest of the oligosaccharide is released intact. Cleaves the peptidoglycan connecting the daughter cells at the end of the cell division cycle, resulting in the separation of the two newly divided cells. Acts as an autolysin in penicillin-induced lysis (By similarity); In the C-terminal section; belongs to the glycosyl hydrolas [...]
   
  
 0.579
isaA
Immunodominant antigen A, putative; Is able to cleave peptidoglycan. Belongs to the transglycosylase family. IsaA subfamily.
     
 0.553
ABD30255.1
Penicillin-binding protein 1.
   
 0.542
lytR
Two-component response regulator, putative; Member of the two-component regulatory system LytR/LytS that regulates genes involved in autolysis, programmed cell death, biofilm formation and cell wall metabolism. Participates also in sensing and responding to host defense cationic antimicrobial peptides (HDPs). Upon phosphorylation by LytS, functions as a transcription regulator by direct binding to promoter regions of target genes including lrgA and lrgB, to positively regulate their expression.
  
   
 0.515
ABD31195.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
    
   0.505
sceD
sceD protein, putative; Is able to cleave peptidoglycan and affects clumping and separation of bacterial cells. Is required for normal growth under stressful conditions. Is essential for nasal colonization. Belongs to the transglycosylase family. SceD subfamily.
