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.

ycbWPutative cytoplasmic protein; Contributes to the efficiency of the cell division process by stabilizing the polymeric form of the cell division protein FtsZ. Acts by promoting interactions between FtsZ protofilaments and suppressing the GTPase activity of FtsZ. (180 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
ftsZ
Tubulin-like GTP-binding protein and GTPase; Essential cell division protein that forms a contractile ring structure (Z ring) at the future cell division site. The regulation of the ring assembly controls the timing and the location of cell division. One of the functions of the FtsZ ring is to recruit other cell division proteins to the septum to produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells. Binds GTP and shows GTPase activity.
    
 
 0.973
yiiU
Putative cytoplasmic protein; Non-essential, abundant cell division factor that is required for proper Z-ring formation. It is recruited early to the divisome by direct interaction with FtsZ, stimulating Z-ring assembly and thereby promoting cell division earlier in the cell cycle. Its recruitment to the Z-ring requires functional FtsA or ZipA.
  
   
 0.950
yacF
Putative cytoplasmic protein; Cell division factor that enhances FtsZ-ring assembly. Directly interacts with FtsZ and promotes bundling of FtsZ protofilaments, with a reduction in FtsZ GTPase activity.
  
   
 0.934
ygfE
Putative cytoplasmic protein; Activator of cell division through the inhibition of FtsZ GTPase activity, therefore promoting FtsZ assembly into bundles of protofilaments necessary for the formation of the division Z ring. It is recruited early at mid-cell but it is not essential for cell division.
  
  
 0.921
zipA
Cell division protein involved in FtsZ ring; Essential cell division protein that stabilizes the FtsZ protofilaments by cross-linking them and that serves as a cytoplasmic membrane anchor for the Z ring. Also required for the recruitment to the septal ring of downstream cell division proteins.
  
   
 0.858
ftsL
Cell division protein; Essential cell division protein. May link together the upstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly cytoplasmic, with the downstream cell division proteins, which are predominantly periplasmic.
  
   
 0.772
seqA
Negative modulator of initiation of replication; Negative regulator of replication initiation, which contributes to regulation of DNA replication and ensures that replication initiation occurs exactly once per chromosome per cell cycle. Binds to pairs of hemimethylated GATC sequences in the oriC region, thus preventing assembly of replication proteins and re- initiation at newly replicated origins. Repression is relieved when the region becomes fully methylated.

yieM
Putative inner membrane protein; Similar to E. coli orf, hypothetical protein (AAC76768.1); Blastp hit to AAC76768.1 (427 aa), 89% identity in aa 1 - 427.
  
     0.754
ilvM
Similar to E. coli acetolactate synthase II, valine insensitive, small subunit (AAC77489.1); Blastp hit to AAC77489.1 (87 aa), 93% identity in aa 2 - 87.
  
     0.754
yfcL
Putative cytoplasmic protein; Similar to E. coli orf, hypothetical protein (AAC75385.1); Blastp hit to AAC75385.1 (92 aa), 85% identity in aa 1 - 91.
