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

hilCaraC family bacterial regulatory helix-turn-helix protein; Positive regulator of the expression of the invasion- associated type III secretion system encoded within SPI-1 (pathogenicity island 1). (295 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
sprB
Transcriptional regulator SprB (gi|5007028).
  
  
 0.997
invF
Invasion protein; Transcriptional regulator required for the expression of several genes encoding type III secretion system SPI1 effector proteins. The interaction with SicA is necessary for the activation of sigDE (sopB pipC), sicAsipBCDA, and sopE.
   
  
 0.957
araC
Transcriptional regulator (AraC/XylS family) for ara operon; Transcription factor that regulates the expression of several genes involved in the transport and metabolism of L-arabinose.
      
 0.937
prgH
Cell invasion protein; Required for invasion of epithelial cells.
  
  
 0.936
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.
   
  
 0.925
barA
Sensory histidine kinase; Similar to E. coli sensor-regulator, activates OmpR by phophorylation (AAC75828.1); Blastp hit to AAC75828.1 (918 aa), 90% identity in aa 1 - 918.
      
 0.900
fliZ
Putative regulator of FliA; May regulate sigma factor activity.
   
  
 0.898
ompR
Response regulator in two-component regulatory system with EnvZ; Member of the two-component regulatory system EnvZ/OmpR involved in osmoregulation (particularly of genes ompF and ompC) as well as other genes (By similarity). Plays a central role in both acid and osmotic stress responses. Binds to the promoter of both ompC and ompF; at low osmolarity it activates ompF transcription, while at high osmolarity it represses ompF and activates ompC transcription (By similarity).
      
 0.892
sipC
Cell invasion protein; Actin-binding protein that interferes with host cell actin cytoskeleton. Nucleates actin polymerization and condensates actin filaments into cables (bundling). SipA potenciates SipC activity and both are required for an efficient bacterial internalization by the host cell.
   
  
 0.859
sipB
Cell invasion protein; Required for entry into the host cell through presentation or delivery of SipC at the host cell plasma membrane. Along with SipC, is necessary for the transfer of other effector proteins into the host cell. Induces macrophage apoptosis either by binding and activating the proapoptotic enzyme caspase-1 (caspase-1 dependent), resulting in the release of interleukin-1 beta active form, or by disrupting mitochondria and inducing autophagy (caspase-1 independent). The former is dependent of its membrane-fusion activity. The SipBC complex, in association with its chape [...]
