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.

Score
spxAConserved hypothetical protein; Interferes with activator-stimulated transcription by interaction with the RNA polymerase alpha-CTD. May function to globally reduce transcription of genes involved in growth- and development- promoting processes and to increase transcription of genes involved in thiol homeostasis, during periods of extreme stress. Belongs to the ArsC family. Spx subfamily. (131 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ABD30063.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
  
 
 
 0.867
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.
    
   0.852
mecA
Conserved hypothetical protein; Enables the recognition and targeting of unfolded and aggregated proteins to the ClpC protease or to other proteins involved in proteolysis.
 
  
 0.631
ABD30435.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
  
     0.628
recU
Conserved hypothetical protein; Endonuclease that resolves Holliday junction intermediates in genetic recombination. Cleaves mobile four-strand junctions by introducing symmetrical nicks in paired strands. Promotes annealing of linear ssDNA with homologous dsDNA. Required for DNA repair, homologous recombination and chromosome segregation; Belongs to the RecU family.
  
     0.592
ABD30860.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
  
     0.589
clpX
ATP-dependent Clp protease, ATP-binding subunit ClpX; ATP-dependent specificity component of the Clp protease. It directs the protease to specific substrates. Can perform chaperone functions in the absence of ClpP.
   
  
 0.581
perR
Ferric uptake regulator-like protein, putative; Manganese-dependent repressor that controls a regulon of oxidative stress resistance and iron-storage proteins. Regulates expression of genes encoding antioxidant proteins, such as katA, ahpCF, bcp and trxB. Also regulates expression of the iron-storage protein ftn, the ferritin-like protein mrgA, the ferric uptake regulator fur, the manganese transporter operon mntABC, and its own expression. May act as a hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxide sensor. Required for full virulence in a murine skin abscess model of infection.
   
  
 0.565
ABD29724.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
  
  
 0.550
gpsB
Conserved hypothetical protein; Divisome component that associates with the complex late in its assembly, after the Z-ring is formed, and is dependent on DivIC and PBP2B for its recruitment to the divisome. Together with EzrA, is a key component of the system that regulates PBP1 localization during cell cycle progression. Its main role could be the removal of PBP1 from the cell pole after pole maturation is completed. Also contributes to the recruitment of PBP1 to the division complex. Not essential for septum formation.
