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

Score
pcnBpoly(A) polymerase I; Adds poly(A) tail to the 3' end of many RNAs, which usually targets these RNAs for decay. Plays a significant role in the global control of gene expression, through influencing the rate of transcript degradation, and in the general RNA quality control. Belongs to the tRNA nucleotidyltransferase/poly(A) polymerase family. (472 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pnp
Polynucleotide phosphorylase; Involved in mRNA degradation. Catalyzes the phosphorolysis of single-stranded polyribonucleotides processively in the 3'- to 5'- direction. Is a global regulator of virulence and persistency.
  
 
 0.985
folK
7, 8-dihydro-6-hydroxymethylpterin-pyrophosphokinase, PPPK; Similar to E. coli 7,8-dihydro-6-hydroxymethylpterin- pyrophosphokinase (AAC73253.1); Blastp hit to AAC73253.1 (159 aa), 87% identity in aa 1 - 148.
 
  
 0.982
hfq
Host factor I for bacteriophage Q beta replication; RNA chaperone that binds small regulatory RNA (sRNAs) and mRNAs to facilitate mRNA translational regulation in response to envelope stress, environmental stress and changes in metabolite concentrations. Also binds with high specificity to tRNAs (By similarity). Plays a central regulatory role in the microbial response to space flight conditions. Is essential for virulence and is required for efficient invasion of non-phagocytic cells.
    
 
 0.977
rne
RNase E; Endoribonuclease that plays a central role in RNA processing and decay. Required for the maturation of 5S and 16S rRNAs and the majority of tRNAs. Also involved in the degradation of most mRNAs. Belongs to the RNase E/G family. RNase E subfamily.
  
 
 0.928
rhlB
Putative helicase; DEAD-box RNA helicase involved in RNA degradation. Has RNA- dependent ATPase activity and unwinds double-stranded RNA. Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. RhlB subfamily.
  
 
 0.899
vacB
Putative exoribonuclease; 3'-5' exoribonuclease that releases 5'-nucleoside monophosphates and is involved in maturation of structured RNAs. Belongs to the RNR ribonuclease family. RNase R subfamily.
 
 
 0.858
rnc
RNase III, ds RNA; Digests double-stranded RNA. Involved in the processing of ribosomal RNA transcript to yield the immediate precursors to the large and small rRNAs (23S and 16S). Removes small helical intervening sequences (IVSs) from all 7 of the 23S rRNA transcripts. Probably also processes some mRNAs, and tRNAs when they are encoded in the rRNA operon. Probably processes pre-crRNA and tracrRNA of type II CRISPR loci if present in the organism.
  
  
 0.817
cafA
RNase G; Similar to E. coli bundles of cytoplasmic filaments (AAC76279.1); Blastp hit to AAC76279.1 (495 aa), 96% identity in aa 7 - 495.
   
 
 0.794
rho
Transcription termination factor Rho; Facilitates transcription termination by a mechanism that involves Rho binding to the nascent RNA, activation of Rho's RNA- dependent ATPase activity, and release of the mRNA from the DNA template.
   
  
 0.769
birA
biotin-[acetylCoA carboxylase] holoenzyme synthetase; Acts both as a biotin--[acetyl-CoA-carboxylase] ligase and a biotin-operon repressor. In the presence of ATP, BirA activates biotin to form the BirA-biotinyl-5'-adenylate (BirA-bio-5'-AMP or holoBirA) complex. HoloBirA can either transfer the biotinyl moiety to the biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) subunit of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, or bind to the biotin operator site and inhibit transcription of the operon.
