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

flkCell division protein; Acts as a regulator of flagellar gene expression by modulating the protein level of the anti sigma factor FlgM upon sensing ring completion or hook elongation. Flk could inhibit FlgM secretion by acting as a braking system for the flagellar-associated type III secretion (T3S) system. Plays a role in hindering to flip the flagellar T3S specificity switch from the rod and hook-type substrates to filament-type substrates prior to hook-basal body (HBB) completion possibly by preventing interaction of FliK with FlhB. (333 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
pdxB
Erythronate-4-phosphate dehydrogenase; Catalyzes the oxidation of erythronate-4-phosphate to 3- hydroxy-2-oxo-4-phosphonooxybutanoate.
  
  
 0.893
yhgH
Putative amidophosphoribosyltransferase; Could be involved in gluconate metabolism.
      
 0.836
STM1786
Similar to E. coli hydrogenase-1 small subunit (AAC74057.1); Blastp hit to AAC74057.1 (372 aa), 92% identity in aa 1 - 372.
      
 0.699
flhE
Flagellar protein; Not essential for flagellar formation and function.
      
 0.698
tatB
Component of Sec-independent protein secretion pathway; Part of the twin-arginine translocation (Tat) system that transports large folded proteins containing a characteristic twin- arginine motif in their signal peptide across membranes. Together with TatC, TatB is part of a receptor directly interacting with Tat signal peptides. TatB may form an oligomeric binding site that transiently accommodates folded Tat precursor proteins before their translocation.
      
 0.677
tatA
Component of Sec-independent protein secretion pathway; Part of the twin-arginine translocation (Tat) system that transports large folded proteins containing a characteristic twin- arginine motif in their signal peptide across membranes. TatA could form the protein-conducting channel of the Tat system.
      
 0.672
flhA
Flagellar biosynthesis protein; Required for formation of the rod structure of the flagellar apparatus. Together with FliI and FliH, may constitute the export apparatus of flagellin.
      
 0.671
tatC
Component of sec-independent protein export; Part of the twin-arginine translocation (Tat) system that transports large folded proteins containing a characteristic twin- arginine motif in their signal peptide across membranes. Together with TatB, TatC is part of a receptor directly interacting with Tat signal peptides.
      
 0.662
flgM
anti-FliA factor; Responsible for the coupling of flagellin expression to flagellar assembly by preventing expression of the flagellin genes when a component of the middle class of proteins is defective. It negatively regulates flagellar genes by inhibiting the activity of FliA by directly binding to FliA; Belongs to the FlgM family.
      
 0.659
STM3152
Similar to E. coli methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein I, serine sensor receptor (AAC77311.1); Blastp hit to AAC77311.1 (551 aa), 43% identity in aa 1 - 551.
