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

pipCPathogenicity island encoded protein: SPI5; Molecular chaperone required for SopB/SigD stabilization and secretion; Belongs to the IpgE/SigE chaperone family. (113 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sopB
Pathogenicity island encoded protein: SPI5; Converts phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns 3,4,5-P3) to PtdIns 3-P and prevents the transition of PtdIns 3-P to PtdIns 3,5-P2. It is one of the known effectors injected by Salmonella into the host cell and is required for invasion and for an efficient generation and maintenance of Salmonella-containing vacuole (SVC). Alteration of the phosphoinositide composition of the plasma membrane causes membrane ruffling and actin cytoskeleton rearrangements. The persistence of PtdIns 3-P diverts the SCV from the endocytic pathway resulti [...]

sopE2
TypeIII-secreted protein effector: invasion-associated protein; Activator for CDC42 by directly engaging this Rho GTPase and acting as potent guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF). This activation results in actin cytoskeleton rearrangements and stimulates membrane ruffling, promoting bacterial entry into non-phagocytic cells. Also activates NF-kB, p38 and ERK kinases, which are known to be involved in the induction of IL-8 expression. Chaperone InvB is required for secretion, translocation and stabilization of intracellular levels of sopE2.

pipD
Pathogenicity island encoded protein: SPI5.
      
 0.835
sipA
Cell invasion protein; Actin-binding protein that interferes with host cell actin cytoskeleton. It stimulates actin polymerization and counteracts F- actin destabilizing proteins. Potentiates SipC activity; both are required for an efficient bacterial internalization. In vitro, forms a complex with host cell protein T-plastin increasing actin bundling. It inhibits ADF/cofilin-directed depolymerization both by preventing binding of ADF and cofilin and by displacing them from F-actin. Also protects F-actin from gelsolin-directed severing and reanneals gelsolin-severed F-actin fragments; [...]

STM1089
Pathogenicity island encoded protein: SPI5.
   
  
 0.791
pipB
Pathogenicity island encoded protein: SPI5; Effector proteins function to alter host cell physiology and promote bacterial survival in host tissues. Does not appear to be required for the formation or the maintenance of either Salmonella- containing vacuole (SCV) or the Salmonella-induced filaments (Sifs). Not required for intracellular replication in phagocytic cells.
   
  
 0.777
sipD
Cell invasion protein; Required for translocation of effector proteins via the type III secretion system SPI-1, which is essential for an efficient bacterial internalization. Probably acts by modulating the secretion of SipA, SipB, and SipC.
   
  
 0.772
iacP
Putative acyl carrier protein; Acyl carrier protein.
   
  
 0.767
sicA
Surface presentation of antigens; Type III secretion-associated chaperone required for SipB and SipC stabilization. Prevents premature association of SipB with SipC, which may lead to their targeting for degradation. Along with InvF, required for transcription activation of sigDE (sopB pipC), sicAsipBCDA, and sopE.

rhuM
Putative cytoplasmic protein; Pathogenicity island encoded protein: SPI3; RhuM (gi|4324608).
