Abstract: Prokaryotic protein–protein interactions are underrepresented in currently available databases Here, we describe a ‘gold standard’ dataset (MPI-LIT) focusing on microbial binary protein–protein interactions and associated experimental evidence that we have manually curated from 813 abstracts and full texts that were selected from an initial set of 36 852 abstracts The MPI-LIT dataset comprises 1237 experimental descriptions that describe a non-redundant set of 746 interactions of which 659 (88%) are not reported in public databases To estimate the curation quality, we compared our dataset with a union of microbial interaction data from IntAct, DIP, BIND and MINT Among common abstracts, we achieve a sensitivity of up to 66% for interactions and 75% for experimental methods Compared with these other datasets, MPI-LIT has the lowest fraction of interaction experiments per abstract (09) and the highest coverage of strains (92) and scientific articles (813) We compared methods that evaluate functional interactions among proteins (such as genomic context or co-expression) which are implemented in the STRING database Most of these methods discriminate well between functionally relevant protein interactions (MPI-LIT) and high-throughput data

TL;DR: The authors performed yeast two-hybrid screens of 3,305 baits against 3,606 preys (∼70% of the E. coli proteome) in duplicate to generate a map of 2,234 interactions.
Studying protein complexes by the yeast two-hybrid system
TL;DR: This work investigates how the yeast two-hybrid system can be used to analyze direct interactions among proteins in a complex, and reviews an Y2H analysis of the human spliceosome which may serve as an example for a dynamic mega-complex.

A Comparative Genomics, Network-Based Approach to Understanding Virulence in Vibrio cholerae
TL;DR: This work assesses the associations among the virulence-associated proteins from Vibrio cholerae and all the other proteins from this bacterium using a functional-association network map and proposes an approach that incorporates information from comparative genomics and network biology to gain a more comprehensive view of the genes and interactions underlying a phenotype.

TL;DR: A novel genetic system to study protein-protein interactions between two proteins by taking advantage of the properties of the GAL4 protein of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which may be applicable as a general method to identify proteins that interact with a known protein by the use of a simple galactose selection.

TL;DR: The Database of Interacting Proteins (DIP; http://dip.doe-mbi.ucla. edu) is a database that documents experimentally determined protein-protein interactions.
Improved scoring of functional groups from gene expression data by decorrelating GO graph structure
TL;DR: Two novel algorithms that improve GO group scoring using the underlying GO graph topology are presented and it is shown that both methods eliminate local dependencies between GO terms and point to relevant areas in the GO graph that remain undetected with state-of-the-art algorithms for scoring functional terms.

TL;DR: This work investigated how hubs might contribute to robustness and other cellular properties for protein–protein interactions dynamically regulated both in time and in space, and uncovered two types of hub: ‘party’ hubs, which interact with most of their partners simultaneously, and ‘date’ Hubs, which bind their different partners at different times or locations.
