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.

pagPPhoPQ-activated gene; Transfers a palmitate residue from the sn-1 position of a phospholipid to the N-linked hydroxymyristate on the proximal unit of lipid A or its precursors. Required for resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs). Modifications of lipid A with a palmitate chain allow to evade host immune defenses by resisting antimicrobial peptides and attenuating the inflammatory response to infection triggered by lipopolysaccharide through the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signal transduction pathway. (190 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
msbB
Myristoyl transferase in lipid A biosynthesis; Catalyzes the transfer of myristate from myristoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) to Kdo(2)-(lauroyl)-lipid IV(A) to form Kdo(2)- lipid A.
   
 
 0.995
lpxO
Putative dioxygenase for synthesis of lipid; Putative dioxygenase; LpxO (gi|9454389).
     
 0.994
pqaB
Putative melittin resistance protein; Catalyzes the transfer of the L-Ara4N moiety of the glycolipid undecaprenyl phosphate-alpha-L-Ara4N to lipid A. The modified arabinose is attached to lipid A and is required for resistance to polymyxin and cationic antimicrobial peptides. Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 83 family.
  
  
 0.993
yjdB
Putative integral membrane protein; Catalyzes the addition of a phosphoethanolamine moiety to the lipid A. The phosphoethanolamine modification is required for resistance to polymyxin; Belongs to the phosphoethanolamine transferase family. EptA subfamily.
     
 0.989
yeiU
Putative permease; Involved in the modification of the lipid A domain of lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Transfers a phosphate group from undecaprenyl pyrophosphate (C55-PP) to lipid A to form lipid A 1- diphosphate. Contributes to the recycling of undecaprenyl phosphate (C55-P); Belongs to the LpxT phosphotransferase family.
   
 
 0.986
STM1328
Putative outer membrane protein.
     
 0.972
yhjW
Putative membrane-associated metal-dependent hydrolase; Catalyzes the addition of a phosphoethanolamine (pEtN) moiety to the outer 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic acid (Kdo) residue of a Kdo(2)-lipid A. Phosphatidylethanolamines with one unsaturated acyl group functions as pEtN donors and the reaction releases diacylglycerol.
  
  
 0.969
lpxK
Tetraacyldisaccharide 4' kinase; Transfers the gamma-phosphate of ATP to the 4'-position of a tetraacyldisaccharide 1-phosphate intermediate (termed DS-1-P) to form tetraacyldisaccharide 1,4'-bis-phosphate (lipid IVA).
   
 
 0.933
kdtA
3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonic-acid transferase; Involved in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthesis. Catalyzes the transfer of 3-deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate (Kdo) residue(s) from CMP- Kdo to lipid IV(A), the tetraacyldisaccharide-1,4'-bisphosphate precursor of lipid A; Belongs to the glycosyltransferase group 1 family.
   
 
 0.927
STM2245
Putative outer membrane protein.
     
  0.900
