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

cheMMethyl accepting chemotaxis protein II; Receptor for the attractant L-aspartate and related amino and dicarboxylic acids. Tar mediates taxis away from the repellents cobalt and nickel. Unlike in E.coli tar, it does not mediates maltose taxis. (553 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
cheR
Glutamate methyltransferase; Methylation of the membrane-bound methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins (MCP) to form gamma-glutamyl methyl ester residues in MCP.
 0.999
cheA
Sensory histitine protein kinase; Involved in the transmission of sensory signals from the chemoreceptors to the flagellar motors. CheA is autophosphorylated; it can transfer its phosphate group to either CheB or CheY.
 
 0.999
STM2314
Putative chemotaxis signal transduction protein; Similar to E. coli positive regulator of CheA protein activity (AAC74957.1); Blastp hit to AAC74957.1 (167 aa), 25% identity in aa 18 - 151.
 
 0.999
cheB
Methyl esterase; Involved in chemotaxis. Part of a chemotaxis signal transduction system that modulates chemotaxis in response to various stimuli. Catalyzes the demethylation of specific methylglutamate residues introduced into the chemoreceptors (methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins or MCP) by CheR. Also mediates the irreversible deamidation of specific glutamine residues to glutamic acid (By similarity). Belongs to the CheB family.
 0.997
cheW
Purine-binding chemotaxis protein; Involved in the transmission of sensory signals from the chemoreceptors to the flagellar motors.
 
 0.997
cheY
Chemotaxis regulator protein; Involved in the transmission of sensory signals from the chemoreceptors to the flagellar motors. In its active (phosphorylated or acetylated) form, CheY exhibits enhanced binding to a switch component, FliM, at the flagellar motor which induces a change from counterclockwise to clockwise flagellar rotation. Shows autophosphatase activity which is enhanced by CheZ.
 0.989
motA
Proton conductor component of motor; MotA and MotB comprise the stator element of the flagellar motor complex. Required for rotation of the flagellar motor. Probable transmembrane proton channel (By similarity).
 
  
 0.972
motB
Enables flagellar motor rotation; MotA and MotB comprise the stator element of the flagellar motor complex. Required for the rotation of the flagellar motor. Might be a linker that fastens the torque-generating machinery to the cell wall (By similarity).
  
  
 0.959
flgK
Hook-filament junction protein 1; Flagellar biosynthesis protein; flagellar hook-associated protein 1 (HAP1). (SW:FLGK_SALTY); Belongs to the flagella basal body rod proteins family.
   
 
 0.945
malE
Maltose transport protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Binds maltose and higher maltodextrins.
     
 0.919
