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.

mgrAConserved hypothetical protein; Regulatory protein involved in autolytic activity, multidrug resistance and virulence. Controls autolysis by inactivating LytM, LytN (autolysins) and SarV (autolysis activator) and activating ArlRS, LrgAB and LytSR (autolysis inhibitors). Acts as a dual regulator for resistance to multiple drugs by inactivating NorB and tet38 and activating NorA. Positively controls the expression of virulence accessory gene regulator (agr) to promote alpha-hemolysin (hla) transcription and down-regulates staphylococcal accessory regulator (sarS), leading to repression o [...] (147 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ABD29957.1
Conserved hypothetical protein; Belongs to the OsmC/Ohr family.
 
  
 0.888
norB
Conserved hypothetical protein; Multidrug efflux pump that acts independently of NorA and is one of the factors that confers resistance against diverse quinolones and chemical compounds. Extrudes norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, cetrimide, tetraphenylphosphonium ion (TPP), sparfloxacin, moxifloxacin and ethidium bromide. Contributes also to the efflux of tetracycline.
      
 0.774
sarA
Staphylococcal accessory regulator T, putative; Global regulator with both positive and negative effects that controls expression of several virulence factors and biofilm formation process in a cell density-dependent manner. In a strain-dependent manner plays a role in multidrug resistance mechanism. Is required for transcription of primary transcripts RNAII and RNAIII generated by agr (virulence accessory gene regulator) locus. Acts as a transcriptional activator of the genes encoding, among others, for fibronectin binding proteins (fnbA and fnbB), hemolysins (hla, hld, hlgB and hlgC) [...]

ABD29828.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
       0.679
arlR
DNA-binding response regulator, putative; Member of the two-component regulatory system ArlS/ArlR involved in the regulation of adhesion, autolysis, multidrug resistance and virulence. ArlS/ArlR affects expression of the multidrug resistance transporter NorA and interacts with both Agr (virulence accessory gene regulator) (negatively) and SarA (staphylococcal accessory regulator) (positively) to modulate several virulence factor genes, including ssp (serine protease), spa (surface protein A) and hla (alpha-hemolysin). Could inhibit biofilm development by a mechanism independent of the [...]

arlS
Conserved hypothetical protein; Member of the two-component regulatory system ArlS/ArlR involved in the regulation of adhesion, autolysis, multidrug resistance and virulence. ArlS probably functions as a sensor protein kinase which is autophosphorylated at a histidine residue and transfers its phosphate group to ArlR. ArlS/ArlR affects expression of the multidrug resistance transporter norA and interacts with both Agr (virulence accessory gene regulator) (negatively) and SarA (staphylococcal accessory regulator) (positively) to modulate several virulence factor genes, including ssp (se [...]

mepA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Multidrug resistance efflux protein involved in transporting several clinically relevant monovalent and divalent biocides and the fluoroquinolone antimicrobial agents norfloxacin and ciprofloxacin. Required for transcription of agr and RNAIII and involved in the production of protein A (spa) and toxins alpha, beta and delta.
  
  
 0.525
sarV
Conserved hypothetical protein; Part of the pathway by which MgrA and SarA control autolysis. Involved in regulation of virulence and autolysis genes such as hla, splA, aur, scp, lrgB, scdA and atl. May also act as an activator for the expression of regulatory genes agr, lytSR and ArlRS.
      
 0.498
sarR
Conserved hypothetical protein; Negative regulator of sarA transcription at late exponential and stationary growth phases. It contributes to the modulation of target genes downstream of the sarA regulatory cascade. Also, positively regulates expression of primary transcripts RNAII and RNAIII generated by agr (virulence accessory gene regulator) locus.
