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

hlbTruncated beta-hemolysin; Bacterial hemolysins are exotoxins that attack blood cell membranes and cause cell rupture. Beta-hemolysin is a phospholipase C with specific activity toward sphingomyelins. Has a high specificity for sphingomyelin, hydrolyzes lysophosphatidylcholine at a much lower rate, but has no activity towards phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, or phosphatidylserine; Belongs to the neutral sphingomyelinase family. (274 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
plc
1-phosphatidylinositol phosphodiesterase precursor, putative; Cleaves glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) and phosphatidylinositol (PI) anchors but not PI phosphates. Potential virulence factor (By similarity).
   
 
 0.936
betA
Choline dehydrogenase; Involved in the biosynthesis of the osmoprotectant glycine betaine. Catalyzes the oxidation of choline to betaine aldehyde and betaine aldehyde to glycine betaine at the same rate.
  
 
  0.901
dagK
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the phosphorylation of diacylglycerol (DAG) into phosphatidic acid. Is a key enzyme involved in the production of lipoteichoic acid by reintroducing DAG formed from the breakdown of membrane phospholipids into the phosphatidylglycerol biosynthetic pathway (By similarity); Belongs to the diacylglycerol/lipid kinase family.
   
 
  0.891
ABD29975.1
Aminotransferase, class V superfamily, putative; Belongs to the class-V pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
    
   0.836
ptsG
PTS system, glucose-specific component; The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system (sugar PTS), a major carbohydrate active transport system, catalyzes the phosphorylation of incoming sugar substrates concomitantly with their translocation across the cell membrane. This system is involved in glucose transport.
  
 
 0.825
glcB
PTS system glucose-specific IIABC component; The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system (sugar PTS), a major carbohydrate active -transport system, catalyzes the phosphorylation of incoming sugar substrates concomitantly with their translocation across the cell membrane. This system is involved in alpha- and beta-glucoside transport (By similarity).
  
 
 0.825
ABD31280.1
Integrase; Belongs to the 'phage' integrase family.
  
  
 0.792
hly
Alpha-hemolysin precursor; Alpha-toxin binds to the membrane of eukaryotic cells resulting in the release of low-molecular weight molecules and leading to an eventual osmotic lysis. Inhibits host neutrophil chemotaxis to the lesion region (Probable). Heptamer oligomerization and pore formation is required for lytic activity (By similarity). Belongs to the aerolysin family.
   
  
 0.754
fnbA
Fibronectin-binding protein precursor, putative; Possesses multiple, substituting fibronectin (Fn) binding regions, each capable of conferring adherence to both soluble and immobilized forms of Fn. This confers to S.aureus the ability to invade endothelial cells both in vivo and in vitro, without requiring additional factors, although in a slow and inefficient way through actin rearrangements in host cells. This invasion process is mediated by integrin alpha-5/beta-1. Promotes bacterial attachment to both soluble and immobilized forms of fibrinogen (Fg) by means of a unique binding sit [...]
   
 
 0.711
ABD30408.1
Cardiolipin synthetase, putative; Catalyzes the reversible phosphatidyl group transfer from one phosphatidylglycerol molecule to another to form cardiolipin (CL) (diphosphatidylglycerol) and glycerol.
