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.

oatAConserved hypothetical protein; Responsible for O-acetylation at the C(6)-hydroxyl group of N-acetylmuramyl residues, forming the corresponding N,6-O- diacetylmuramic acid of the peptidoglycan. O-acetylation of the peptidoglycan is the major determinant for lysozyme resistance. Belongs to the acyltransferase 3 family. (603 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
mprF
Conserved hypothetical protein; Catalyzes the transfer of a lysyl group from L-lysyl- tRNA(Lys) to membrane-bound phosphatidylglycerol (PG), which produces lysylphosphatidylglycerol (LPG), a major component of the bacterial membrane with a positive net charge. LPG synthesis contributes to bacterial virulence as it is involved in the resistance mechanism against cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMP) produces by the host's immune system (defensins, cathelicidins) and by the competing microorganisms (bacteriocins). In fact, the modification of anionic phosphatidylglycerol with positively [...]

dltA
D-alanine-activating enzyme; Catalyzes the first step in the D-alanylation of lipoteichoic acid (LTA), the activation of D-alanine and its transfer onto the D- alanyl carrier protein (Dcp) DltC. In an ATP-dependent two-step reaction, forms a high energy D-alanyl-AMP intermediate, followed by transfer of the D-alanyl residue as a thiol ester to the phosphopantheinyl prosthetic group of the Dcp. D-alanylation of LTA plays an important role in modulating the properties of the cell wall in Gram-positive bacteria, influencing the net charge of the cell wall. Belongs to the ATP-dependent AMP [...]

srtA
Sortase, putative; Transpeptidase that anchors surface proteins to the cell wall. Recognizes and modifies its substrate by proteolytic cleavage of a C-terminal sorting signal. Following cleavage, a covalent intermediate is formed via a thioester bond between the sortase and its substrate, which is then transferred and covalently attached to the cell wall. This sortase recognizes a Leu-Pro-x-Thr-Gly (LPXTG) motif, which is cleaved by the sortase between the threonine and glycine residues. Utilizes lipid II as the peptidoglycan substrate for the sorting reaction. Responsible for the disp [...]

sceD
sceD protein, putative; Is able to cleave peptidoglycan and affects clumping and separation of bacterial cells. Is required for normal growth under stressful conditions. Is essential for nasal colonization. Belongs to the transglycosylase family. SceD subfamily.
