Abstract:
Protein-protein interaction networks are useful in contextual annotation of protein function and in general to achieve a system-level understanding of cellular behavior. This work reports on the social behavior of the yeast protein-protein interaction network and concludes that it is non-random. This work, while providing an analysis of organization of genes into functional societies, can potentially be useful in assessing the accuracy of contextual gene annotation based on such interaction networks.
