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.

whiAConserved hypothetical protein; Involved in cell division and chromosome segregation. (314 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ABD29917.1
Conserved hypothetical protein; Required for morphogenesis under gluconeogenic growth conditions; Belongs to the gluconeogenesis factor family.
  
  
 0.892
ABD29916.1
Conserved hypothetical protein; Displays ATPase and GTPase activities.
 
  
 0.870
sigA
RNA polymerase sigma factor, putative; Sigma factors are initiation factors that promote the attachment of RNA polymerase to specific initiation sites and are then released. This sigma factor is the primary sigma factor during exponential growth.
  
 
 
 0.819
rpoA
DNA-directed RNA polymerase alpha chain, putative; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
  
 
   0.803
rpoZ
Conserved hypothetical protein; Promotes RNA polymerase assembly. Latches the N- and C- terminal regions of the beta' subunit thereby facilitating its interaction with the beta and alpha subunits.
   
   0.785
rpoC
DNA directed RNA polymerase beta-prime chain, putative; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
    
   0.775
sepF
Conserved hypothetical protein; Cell division protein that is part of the divisome complex and is recruited early to the Z-ring. Probably stimulates Z-ring formation, perhaps through the cross-linking of FtsZ protofilaments. Its function overlaps with FtsA.
  
   
 0.671
ABD30794.1
Conserved hypothetical protein; Belongs to the UPF0297 family.
  
     0.642
ABD30311.1
Conserved hypothetical protein; Might take part in the signal recognition particle (SRP) pathway. This is inferred from the conservation of its genetic proximity to ftsY/ffh. May be a regulatory protein.
  
    0.636
ABD30294.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
 
   
 0.632
