Abstract: | Background Protein-protein interactions underlie many important biological processes. Computational prediction methods can nicely complement
experimental approaches for identifying protein-protein interactions. Recently, a unique category of sequence-based prediction
methods has been put forward - unique in the sense that it does not require homologous protein sequences. This enables it
to be universally applicable to all protein sequences unlike many of previous sequence-based prediction methods. If effective
as claimed, these new sequence-based, universally applicable prediction methods would have far-reaching utilities in many
areas of biology research. |
