Bacteriophages are viruses that target bacteria, playing a crucial role in microbial ecology. Phage proteins are important in understanding phage biology, such as virus infection, replication, and evolution. Although a large number of new…
At the molecular level, most biological processes entail protein associations which in turn rely on a small fraction of interfacial residues called hot spots. Here we show that hot spots share a unifying molecular attribute: they provide a…
High-throughput protein interaction detection methods are strongly affected by false positive and false negative results. Focused experiments are needed to complement the large-scale methods by validating previously detected interactions…
Developments in Genome-Wide Association Studies have led to the increasing notion that future healthcare techniques will be personalized to the patient, by relying on genetic tests to determine the risk of developing a disease. To this end,…
Discovering mutations enhancing protein-protein interactions (PPIs) is critical for advancing biomedical research and developing improved therapeutics. While machine learning approaches have substantially advanced the field, they often…
The influenza/H1N1 virus has caused hazard in the public health of many countries. Hence, existing influenza drugs could not cope with H1N1 infection due to the high mutation rate of the virus. In this respect, new method to block the virus…
Recent advances in generative biology have enabled the design of novel proteins, creating significant opportunities for drug discovery while also introducing new risks, including the potential development of synthetic bioweapons. Existing…
We employed the random graph theory approach to analyze the protein-protein interaction database DIP (Feb. 2004), for seven species (S. cerevisiae, H. pylori, E. coli, C. elegans, H. sapiens, M. musculus and D. melanogaster). Several global…
The study of multi-type Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) is fundamental for understanding biological processes from a systematic perspective and revealing disease mechanisms. Existing methods suffer from significant performance degradation…
Lipid-protein interactions play essential roles in cellular signaling and membrane dynamics, yet their systematic characterization has long been hindered by the inherent biochemical properties of lipids. Recent advances in functionalized…
Identifying driver genes is crucial for understanding oncogenesis and developing targeted cancer therapies. Driver discovery methods using protein or pathway networks rely on traditional network science measures, focusing on nodes, edges,…
In mass spectrometry-based proteomics, experts usually project data onto a single set of reference sequences, overlooking the influence of common haplotypes (combinations of genetic variants inherited together from a parent). We recently…
Molecular interactions have widely been modelled as networks. The local wiring patterns around molecules in molecular networks are linked with their biological functions. However, networks model only pairwise interactions between molecules…
Understanding protein-protein interactions is central to our understanding of almost all complex biological processes. Computational tools exploiting rapidly growing genomic databases to characterize protein-protein interactions are…
Systematic identification of protein function is a key problem in current biology. Most traditional methods fail to identify functionally equivalent proteins if they lack similar sequences, structural data or extensive manual annotations.…
The interaction between Ribonucleic Acids (RNAs) and proteins, also called RNA Protein Interaction (RPI), plays an important role in the life activities of organisms, including in various regulatory processes, such as gene splicing, gene…
IPIs caused by protozoan and helminth parasites are among the most common infections in humans in LMICs. They are regarded as a severe public health concern, as they cause a wide array of potentially detrimental health conditions.…
We present a method that compares the protein interaction networks of two species to detect functionally similar (conserved) protein modules between them. The method is based on an algorithm we developed to identify matching subgraphs…
Identification of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) helps derive cellular mechanistic understanding, particularly in the context of complex conditions such as neurodegenerative disorders, metabolic syndromes, and cancer. Large Language…
Understanding and extracting the patterns of microscopy images has been a major challenge in the biomedical field. Although trained scientists can locate the proteins of interest within a human cell, this procedure is not efficient and…
