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

hupBDNA-binding protein HU-beta, NS1 (HU-1); Histone-like DNA-binding protein which is capable of wrapping DNA to stabilize it, and thus to prevent its denaturation under extreme environmental conditions; Belongs to the bacterial histone-like protein family. (90 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
lon
DNA-binding protein; ATP-dependent serine protease that mediates the selective degradation of mutant and abnormal proteins as well as certain short- lived regulatory proteins. Required for cellular homeostasis and for survival from DNA damage and developmental changes induced by stress. Degrades polypeptides processively to yield small peptide fragments that are 5 to 10 amino acids long. Binds to DNA in a double-stranded, site-specific manner.

hupA
DNA-binding protein HU-alpha; Histone-like DNA-binding protein which is capable of wrapping DNA to stabilize it, and thus to prevent its denaturation under extreme environmental conditions; Belongs to the bacterial histone-like protein family.
  
  
0.695
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.
   
  
 0.644
himA
Integration host factor (IHF), alpha subunit; This protein is one of the two subunits of integration host factor, a specific DNA-binding protein that functions in genetic recombination as well as in transcriptional and translational control.
  
 
0.643
rpsT
30S ribosomal subunit protein S20; Binds directly to 16S ribosomal RNA.
  
  
 0.565
cspE
RNA chaperone, negative regulator of cspA transcription; Similar to E. coli cold shock protein (AAC73724.1); Blastp hit to AAC73724.1 (69 aa), 98% identity in aa 1 - 69.
  
 
 0.564
topA
DNA topoisomerase type I, omega protein; Releases the supercoiling and torsional tension of DNA, which is introduced during the DNA replication and transcription, by transiently cleaving and rejoining one strand of the DNA duplex. Introduces a single-strand break via transesterification at a target site in duplex DNA. The scissile phosphodiester is attacked by the catalytic tyrosine of the enzyme, resulting in the formation of a DNA- (5'-phosphotyrosyl)-enzyme intermediate and the expulsion of a 3'-OH DNA strand. The free DNA strand then undergoes passage around the unbroken strand, th [...]
     
 0.550
rpsO
30S ribosomal subunit protein S15; One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it helps nucleate assembly of the platform of the 30S subunit by binding and bridging several RNA helices of the 16S rRNA.
  
  
 0.538
clpX
Specificity component of clpA-clpP ATP-dependent serine protease, chaperone; ATP-dependent specificity component of the Clp protease. It directs the protease to specific substrates. Can perform chaperone functions in the absence of ClpP.
  
  
 0.519
STM3651
Putative acetyltransferase.
