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

invBSurface presentation of antigens; Involved in a secretory pathway responsible for the surface presentation of determinants needed for the entry of Salmonella species into mammalian cells. Chaperone specialized in the storage of effectors within the bacterial cytoplasm, maintaining them in a secretion- competent state, and allowing their immediate delivery to target cells upon contact of the bacterium with the host cells. Has been shown to chaperone SopA, SopE, SopE2 and SipA; Belongs to the SpaK family. (135 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
prgJ
Cytoplasmic cell invasion protein; Required for invasion of epithelial cells.
   
  
 0.999
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; [...]

invI
Surface presentation of antigens; Involved in a secretory pathway responsible for the surface presentation of determinants needed for the entry of Salmonella species into mammalian cells.
  
  
 0.999
invC
Surface presentation of antigens; Necessary for efficient entry of S.typhimurium into cultured epithelial cells. Probable catalytic subunit of a protein translocase. May energize the protein export apparatus encoded in the inv locus which is required for the surface presentation of determinants needed for the entry of salmonella species into mammalian cells.

spaP
Surface presentation of antigens; Involved in a secretory pathway responsible for the surface presentation of determinants needed for the entry of Salmonella species into mammalian cells.
  
  
 0.996
invJ
Surface presentation of antigens; Involved in a secretory pathway responsible for the surface presentation of determinants needed for the entry of Salmonella species into mammalian cells; Belongs to the SpaN family.
  
  
 0.996
invG
Outer membrane invasion protein; Component of the type III secretion system (T3SS), also called injectisome, which is used to inject bacterial effector proteins into eukaryotic host cells. Forms a ring-shaped multimeric structure with an apparent central pore in the outer membrane.
  
  
 0.995
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.
  
  
 0.989
prgI
Cytoplasmic cell invasion protein; Required for invasion of epithelial cells; Belongs to the MxiH/PrgI/YscF family.
  
  
 0.980
invE
Invasion protein; Involved in the triggering of intracellular events that lead to microbial internalization. These events include increase in calcium level, redistribution of actin microfilaments, and changes in the normal structure of the microvilli. Encoded within the type III secretion system (SPI-1 TTSS), it is essential for the translocation of protein effectors into host cells. Forms a complex with SipB and SipC in the presence of their chaperone SicA. Positively regulates the secretion of SPI-1 TTSS effector proteins SipB, SipC and SipD and negatively influences the secretion of [...]
