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

TEFMTranscription elongation factor, mitochondrial; Transcription elongation factor which increases mitochondrial RNA polymerase processivity. Regulates transcription of the mitochondrial genome, including genes important for the oxidative phosphorylation machinery; Belongs to the TEFM family. (360 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
POLRMT
DNA-directed RNA polymerase, mitochondrial; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of mitochondrial DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Component of the mitochondrial transcription initiation complex, composed at least of TFB2M, TFAM and POLRMT that is required for basal transcription of mitochondrial DNA. In this complex, TFAM recruits POLRMT to a specific promoter whereas TFB2M induces structural changes in POLRMT to enable promoter opening and trapping of the DNA non-template strand.

MTERF1
Transcription termination factor 1, mitochondrial; Transcription termination factor. Binds to a 28 bp region within the tRNA(Leu(uur)) gene at a position immediately adjacent to and downstream of the 16S rRNA gene; this region comprises a tridecamer sequence critical for directing accurate termination. Binds DNA along the major grove and promotes DNA bending and partial unwinding. Promotes base flipping. Transcription termination activity appears to be polarized with highest specificity for transcripts initiated on the light strand; Belongs to the mTERF family.
   
  
 0.847
TFB2M
Dimethyladenosine transferase 2, mitochondrial; S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent rRNA methyltransferase which may methylate two specific adjacent adenosines in the loop of a conserved hairpin near the 3'-end of 12S mitochondrial rRNA (Probable). Component of the mitochondrial transcription initiation complex, composed at least of TFB2M, TFAM and POLRMT that is required for basal transcription of mitochondrial DNA. In this complex, TFAM recruits POLRMT to a specific promoter whereas TFB2M induces structural changes in POLRMT to enable promoter opening and trapping of the DNA non- templ [...]

MRPL12
39S ribosomal protein L12, mitochondrial; Associates with mitochondrial RNA polymerase to activate transcription; Belongs to the bacterial ribosomal protein bL12 family.
   
 
 0.726
UTP6
U3 small nucleolar RNA-associated protein 6 homolog; Involved in nucleolar processing of pre-18S ribosomal RNA. Belongs to the UTP6 family.
 
 
  
 0.725
CRLF3
Cytokine receptor-like factor 3; May play a role in the negative regulation of cell cycle progression.
   
  
 0.709
TWNK
Twinkle protein, mitochondrial; Involved in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) metabolism. Could function as an adenine nucleotide-dependent DNA helicase. Function inferred to be critical for lifetime maintenance of mtDNA integrity. In vitro, forms in combination with POLG, a processive replication machinery, which can use double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) as template to synthesize single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) molecules. May be a key regulator of mtDNA copy number in mammals.
   
 
 0.703
RAB11FIP4
Rab11 family-interacting protein 4; Acts as a regulator of endocytic traffic by participating in membrane delivery. Required for the abcission step in cytokinesis, possibly by acting as an 'address tag' delivering recycling endosome membranes to the cleavage furrow during late cytokinesis. In case of infection by HCMV (human cytomegalovirus), may participate in egress of the virus out of nucleus; this function is independent of ARF6.
      
 0.691
ATAD5
ATPase family AAA domain-containing protein 5; Involved in DNA damage response. Involved in a RAD9A-related damage checkpoint, a pathway that is important in determining whether DNA damage is compatible with cell survival or whether it requires cell elimination by apoptosis. Modulates the RAD9A interaction with BCL2 and thereby induces DNA damages-induced apoptosis.
   
  
 0.684
MTERF3
Transcription termination factor 3, mitochondrial; Binds promoter DNA and regulates initiation of transcription. Required for normal mitochondrial transcription and translation, and for normal assembly of mitochondrial respiratory complexes. Required for normal mitochondrial function (By similarity). Maintains 16S rRNA levels and functions in mitochondrial ribosome assembly by regulating the biogenesis of the 39S ribosomal subunit (By similarity); Belongs to the mTERF family.
