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.

malTTranscriptional activator of the mal genes; Positively regulates the transcription of the maltose regulon whose gene products are responsible for uptake and catabolism of malto- oligosaccharides. Specifically binds to the promoter region of its target genes, recognizing a short DNA motif called the MalT box. (901 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
STM1557
Putative aminotransferase; Similar to E. coli enzyme that may degrade or block biosynthesis of endogenous mal inducer, probably aminotrasferase (AAC74694.1); Blastp hit to AAC74694.1 (390 aa), 33% identity in aa 3 - 382.
    
   0.914
lamB
Phage lambda receptor protein; Involved in the transport of maltose and maltodextrins. Does not act as a receptor for phages; Belongs to the porin LamB (TC 1.B.3) family.
 
  
 0.773
malE
Maltose transport protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Binds maltose and higher maltodextrins.
 
  
 0.754
yaiZ
Putative inner membrane protein; Similar to E. coli orf, hypothetical protein (AAC73483.1); Blastp hit to AAC73483.1 (114 aa), 84% identity in aa 45 - 114.
   
  
 0.727
malG
Maltose transport protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
 
   
 0.698
nuoF
NADH dehydrogenase I chain F; NDH-1 shuttles electrons from NADH, via FMN and iron-sulfur (Fe-S) centers, to quinones in the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme in this species is believed to be ubiquinone. Couples the redox reaction to proton translocation (for every two electrons transferred, four hydrogen ions are translocated across the cytoplasmic membrane), and thus conserves the redox energy in a proton gradient (By similarity).
   
  
 0.677
malF
Maltose transport protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Probably responsible for the translocation of the substrate across the membrane.
  
    0.666
ibpB
Small heat shock protein; Associates with aggregated proteins, together with IbpA, to stabilize and protect them from irreversible denaturation and extensive proteolysis during heat shock and oxidative stress. Aggregated proteins bound to the IbpAB complex are more efficiently refolded and reactivated by the ATP-dependent chaperone systems ClpB and DnaK/DnaJ/GrpE. Its activity is ATP-independent.
    
   0.656
malS
Alpha-amylase; Similar to E. coli alpha-amylase (AAC76595.1); Blastp hit to AAC76595.1 (676 aa), 81% identity in aa 1 - 676.
 
   
 0.652
malK
Maltose transport protein; Part of the ABC transporter complex MalEFGK involved in maltose/maltodextrin import. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system; Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Maltooligosaccharide importer (TC 3.A.1.1.1) family.
