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

sulASuppressor of lon; Component of the SOS system and an inhibitor of cell division. Accumulation of SulA causes rapid cessation of cell division and the appearance of long, non-septate filaments. In the presence of GTP, binds a polymerization-competent form of FtsZ in a 1:1 ratio, thus inhibiting FtsZ polymerization and therefore preventing it from participating in the assembly of the Z ring. This mechanism prevents the premature segregation of damaged DNA to daughter cells during cell division. (169 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
recN
Protein used in recombination and DNA repair; May be involved in recombinational repair of damaged DNA.

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.

lexA
SOS response regulator; Represses a number of genes involved in the response to DNA damage (SOS response), including recA and lexA. Binds to the 16 bp palindromic sequence 5'-CTGTATATATATACAG-3'. In the presence of single- stranded DNA, RecA interacts with LexA causing an autocatalytic cleavage which disrupts the DNA-binding part of LexA, leading to derepression of the SOS regulon and eventually DNA repair.
  
  
 0.860
yebG
DNA damage-inducible gene in SOS regulon, dependent on cyclic AMP and H-NS; Similar to E. coli orf, hypothetical protein (AAC74918.1); Blastp hit to AAC74918.1 (96 aa), 79% identity in aa 1 - 96.
   
    0.829
recA
DNA strand exchange and recombination protein; Can catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP in the presence of single- stranded DNA, the ATP-dependent uptake of single-stranded DNA by duplex DNA, and the ATP-dependent hybridization of homologous single-stranded DNAs. It interacts with LexA causing its activation and leading to its autocatalytic cleavage.
   
  
 0.704
yjeP
Similar to E. coli putative periplasmic binding protein (AAC77119.1); Blastp hit to AAC77119.1 (1107 aa), 89% identity in aa 1 - 1107.
   
  
 0.681
yccR
Putative DNA transformation protein; Similar to E. coli orf, hypothetical protein (AAC74045.1); Blastp hit to AAC74045.1 (209 aa), 75% identity in aa 1 - 199.
       0.557
umuD
Error-prone repair: SOS-response transcriptional repressor; Involved in UV protection and mutation. Essential for induced (or SOS) mutagenesis. May modify the DNA replication machinery to allow bypass synthesis across a damaged template.
  
  
 0.534
STM2230
Putative peptidase; Similar to E. coli SOS mutagenesis; error-prone repair; processed to UmuD'; forms complex with UmuC (AAC74267.1); Blastp hit to AAC74267.1 (139 aa), 38% identity in aa 22 - 139; Belongs to the peptidase S24 family.
  
  
 0.523
hslU
ATPase component of the HslUV protease; ATPase subunit of a proteasome-like degradation complex; this subunit has chaperone activity. The binding of ATP and its subsequent hydrolysis by HslU are essential for unfolding of protein substrates subsequently hydrolyzed by HslV. HslU recognizes the N-terminal part of its protein substrates and unfolds these before they are guided to HslV for hydrolysis.
