2. 2 Why is it useful to study PPI interactions, networks and pathways? Proteins are the workhorses of cell and all their activities are controlled through interactions with other molecules. To understand the biology of a single protein, you have to study its interacting partners Network/pathway analysis increasingly used as a tool to annotate large data sets – proteins involved in a common process tend to cluster and be present in the same pathway

3. Why are there so many issues with interaction data? 1.Wide variety of methods for demonstrating molecular interactions – all have their strengths and weaknesses 2.No single method accurately defines an interaction as being a true binary interaction observed under physiological conditions

4. Why do we need interaction databases Issues with all interaction data – true picture can only be built up by combining data derived using multiple techniques, multiple laboratories Problematic for any bench researcher to do – issues with data formats, molecular identifiers, sheer volume of data Molecular interaction databases publicly funded to collect this data and annotate in a format most useful to researchers

5. Why are data standards essential Prior to 2003, many databases= many formats. User must reformat when merging data File conversion inevitably leads to data loss Many formats compromised tool development – each tool developed tended to be database specific 5

6. 6 Community standard for Molecular Interactions XML schema and detailed controlled vocabularies Jointly developed by major data providers: BIND, CellZome, DIP, GSK, HPRD, Hybrigenics, IntAct, MINT, MIPS, Serono, U. Bielefeld, U. Bordeaux, U. Cambridge, and others Version 1.0 published in February 2004 The HUPO PSI Molecular Interaction Format - A community standard for the representation of protein interaction data. Henning Hermjakob et al, Nature Biotechnology 2004, 22, 176-183. Version 2.5 published in October 2007 Broadening the Horizon – Level 2.5 of the HUPO-PSI Format for Molecular Interactions; Samuel Kerrien et al. BioMed Central. 2007. PSI-MI XML format

7. 7 Collecting and combining data from different sources has become easier Standardized annotation through PSI-MI ontologies Tools from different organizations can be chained, e.g. analysis of IntAct data in Cytoscape. PSI-MI XML benefits http://www.psidev.info/MI Home page

39. Summary Network and pathway analysis enable the researcher to: 1.Identify clusters of proteins – these may share the same function (stable complex), process or subcellular location 2.Identify proteins involved in the same pathway i.e. in the same process (only works for those proteins which can be placed in pathways) 3.Add biological meaning to a list of gene/transcript/protein identifiers. 39
