چکیده

MOTIVATION Protein interaction networks contain a wealth of biological information, but their large size often hinders cross-organism comparisons. We present OrthoNets, a Cytoscape plugin that displays protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks from two organisms simultaneously, highlighting orthology relationships and aggregating several types of biomedical annotations. OrthoNets also allows PPI networks derived from experiments to be overlaid on networks extracted from public databases, supporting the identification and verification of new interactors. Any newly identified PPIs can be validated by checking whether their orthologs interact in another organism. AVAILABILITY OrthoNets is freely available at http://wodaklab.org/orthonets/.

Singling out functional similarities in graph databases

It has been shown that protein-protein interactions analysis may be useful to infer information about biological variations caused by evolution. All the known protein-protein interactions of a given organism may be modelled by a network, namely, the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of that organism, stored in a graph database. The analysis and comparison of protein-protein interaction ...
