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

furConserved hypothetical protein; Acts as a global negative controlling element, employing Fe(2+) as a cofactor to bind the operator of the repressed genes. (136 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ABD30731.1
Conserved hypothetical protein.
  
  
 0.894
ABD29594.1
Glutamate synthase, large subunit, putative.
    
 0.865
ABD30732.1
ABC transporter, putative.
  
  
 0.864
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.
  
 
 0.784
nfo
Endonuclease IV, putative; Endonuclease IV plays a role in DNA repair. It cleaves phosphodiester bonds at apurinic or apyrimidinic (AP) sites, generating a 3'-hydroxyl group and a 5'-terminal sugar phosphate. Belongs to the AP endonuclease 2 family.
  
    0.721
sodA
Superoxide dismutase, Mn, putative; Destroys superoxide anion radicals which are normally produced within the cells and which are toxic to biological systems. May play a role in maintaining cell viability throughout all stages of growth, but may be the major SOD activity in the exponential growth- phase. Has a role in resisting external superoxide stress. Involved in acid tolerance and the acid-adaptive response. Mediates the derepression of perR regulon in the response to HOCl stress when the level of SOD activity is low.
  
  
 0.703
cshB
Conserved hypothetical protein; Probable DEAD-box RNA helicase. May work in conjunction with the cold shock proteins to ensure proper initiation of transcription at low and optimal temperatures.
       0.700
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.
   
   0.672
rpoB
RNA polymerase beta chain, putative; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates.
   
   0.551
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.
   
   0.549
