Abstract
The 5-y survival for cancer patients after diagnosis and treatment is strongly dependent on tumor type. Prostate cancer patients have a >99% chance of survival past 5 y after diagnosis, and pancreatic patients have <6% chance of survival past 5 y. Because each cancer type has its own molecular signaling network, we asked if there are "signatures" embedded in these networks that inform us as to the 5-y survival. In other words, are there statistical metrics of the network that correlate with survival? Furthermore, if there are, can such signatures provide clues to selecting new therapeutic targets? From the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes Cancer Pathway database we computed several conventional and some less conventional network statistics. In particular we found a correlation (R(2) = 0.7) between degree-entropy and 5-y survival based on the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database. This correlation suggests that cancers that have a more complex molecular pathway are more refractory than those with less complex molecular pathway. We also found potential new molecular targets for drugs by computing the betweenness--a statistical metric of the centrality of a node--for the molecular networks.

Abstract
Proteins are the bricks and mortar of cells. The work of proteins is structural and functional, as they are the principal element of the organization of the cell architecture, but they also play a relevant role in its metabolism and regulation. To perform all these functions, proteins need to interact with each other and with other bio-molecules, either to form complexes or to recognize precise targets of their action. For instance, a particular transcription factor may activate one gene or another depending on its interactions with other proteins and not only with DNA. Hence, the ability of a protein to interact with other bio-molecules, and the partners they have at each particular time and location can be crucial to characterize the role of a protein. Proteins rarely act alone; they rather constitute a mingled network of physical interactions or other types of relationships (such as metabolic and regulatory) or signaling cascades. In this context, understanding the function of a protein implies to recognize the members of its neighborhood and to grasp how they associate, both at the systemic and atomic level. The network of physical interactions between the proteins of a system, cell or organism, is defined as the interactome. The purpose of this review is to deepen the description of interactomes at different levels of detail: from the molecular structure of complexes to the global topology of the network of interactions. The approaches and techniques applied experimentally and computationally to attain each level are depicted. The limits of each technique and its integration into a model network, the challenges and actual problems of completeness of an interactome, and the reliability of the interactions are reviewed and summarized. Finally, the application of the current knowledge of protein-protein interactions on modern network medicine and protein function annotation is also explored.

Abstract
This study profiled transcriptomes of human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HMVEC-L) treated with pre-B-cell colony-enhancing factor (PBEF) siRNA or scrambled RNA to gain insight into transcriptional regulations of PBEF on the endothelial function using the Affymetrix GeneChips HG-U133 plus 2. Several important themes are emerged from this study. First, PBEF affected expressions of multiple genes in the endothelium. Expression of 373 genes was increased and 64 genes decreased by at least 1.3-fold in the PBEFsiRNA-treated HMVEC-L versus the scramble RNA control. Second, the microarray results confirmed previous reports of PBEF-mediated gene expressions in some pathways but provided a more complete repertoire of molecules in those pathways. Third, most of the affected canonical pathways have not previously been reported to be PBEF responsive. Fourth, network analysis supports that PBEF has pleiotropic functions. Our first transcriptome analysis of human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells treated with PBEFsiRNA has provided important insights into the transcriptional regulation of gene expression in HMVEC-L cells by PBEF. Further in-depth analysis of these transcriptional regulations may shed light on molecular mechanisms underlying PBEF-mediated endothelial functions and dysfunctions in various diseases and provide new leads of therapeutic targets to those diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The identification of robust lists of molecular biomarkers related to a disease is a fundamental step for early diagnosis and treatment. However, methodologies for biomarker discovery using microarray data often provide results with limited overlap. It has been suggested that one reason for these inconsistencies may be that in complex diseases, such as cancer, multiple genes belonging to one or more physiological pathways are associated with the outcomes. Thus, a possible approach to improve list stability is to integrate biological information from genomic databases in the learning process; however, a comprehensive assessment based on different types of biological information is still lacking in the literature. In this work we have compared the effect of using different biological information in the learning process like functional annotations, protein-protein interactions and expression correlation among genes. RESULTS Biological knowledge has been codified by means of gene similarity matrices and expression data linearly transformed in such a way that the more similar two features are, the more closely they are mapped. Two semantic similarity matrices, based on Biological Process and Molecular Function Gene Ontology annotation, and geodesic distance applied on protein-protein interaction networks, are the best performers in improving list stability maintaining almost equal prediction accuracy. CONCLUSIONS The performed analysis supports the idea that when some features are strongly correlated to each other, for example because are close in the protein-protein interaction network, then they might have similar importance and are equally relevant for the task at hand. Obtained results can be a starting point for additional experiments on combining similarity matrices in order to obtain even more stable lists of biomarkers.

Abstract
Finding genes associated with a disease is an important issue in the biomedical area and many gene prioritization methods have been proposed for this goal. Among these, network-based approaches are recently proposed and outperformed functional annotation-based ones. Here, we introduce a novel Cytoscape plug-in, GPEC, to help identify putative genes likely to be associated with specific diseases or pathways. In the plug-in, gene prioritization is performed through a random walk with restart algorithm, a state-of-the art network-based method, along with a gene/protein relationship network. The plug-in also allows users efficiently collect biomedical evidence for highly ranked candidate genes. A set of known genes, candidate genes and a gene/protein relationship network can be provided in a flexible way.

Abstract
The advent of the "omics" era in biology research has brought new challenges and requires the development of novel strategies to answer previously intractable questions. Molecular interaction networks provide a framework to visualize cellular processes, but their complexity often makes their interpretation an overwhelming task. The inherently artificial nature of interaction detection methods and the incompleteness of currently available interaction maps call for a careful and well-informed utilization of this valuable data. In this tutorial, we aim to give an overview of the key aspects that any researcher needs to consider when working with molecular interaction data sets and we outline an example for interactome analysis. Using the molecular interaction database IntAct, the software platform Cytoscape, and its plugins BiNGO and clusterMaker, and taking as a starting point a list of proteins identified in a mass spectrometry-based proteomics experiment, we show how to build, visualize, and analyze a protein-protein interaction network.

Abstract
Proteins are biomolecular structures that build the microscopic working machinery of any living system. Proteins within the cells and biological systems do not act alone, but rather team up into macromolecular structures enclosing intricate physicochemical dynamic connections to undertake biological functions. A critical step towards unraveling the complex molecular relationships in living systems is the mapping of protein-to-protein physical "interactions". The complete map of protein interactions that can occur in a living organism is called the "interactome". Achieving an adequate atlas of all the protein interactions within a living system should allow to build its interaction network and to identity the "central nodes" that can be critical for the function, the homeostasis, and the movement of such system. Focusing on human studies, the data about the human interactome are most relevant for current biomedical research, because it is clear that the location of the proteins in the interactome network will allow to evaluate their centrality and to redefine the potential value of each protein as a drug target. This chapter presents our current knowledge on the human protein-protein interactome and explains how such knowledge can help us to select adequate targets for drugs.

Abstract
Signaling and transcription are tightly integrated processes that underlie many cellular responses to the environment. A network of signaling events, often mediated by post-translational modification on proteins, can lead to long-term changes in cellular behavior by altering the activity of specific transcriptional regulators and consequently the expression level of their downstream targets. As many high-throughput, "-omics" methods are now available that can simultaneously measure changes in hundreds of proteins and thousands of transcripts, it should be possible to systematically reconstruct cellular responses to perturbations in order to discover previously unrecognized signaling pathways. This chapter describes a computational method for discovering such pathways that aims to compensate for the varying levels of noise present in these diverse data sources. Based on the concept of constraint optimization on networks, the method seeks to achieve two conflicting aims: (1) to link together many of the signaling proteins and differentially expressed transcripts identified in the experiments "constraints" using previously reported protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions, while (2) keeping the resulting network small and ensuring it is composed of the highest confidence interactions "optimization". A further distinctive feature of this approach is the use of transcriptional data as evidence of upstream signaling events that drive changes in gene expression, rather than as proxies for downstream changes in the levels of the encoded proteins. We recently demonstrated that by applying this method to phosphoproteomic and transcriptional data from the pheromone response in yeast, we were able to recover functionally coherent pathways and to reveal many components of the cellular response that are not readily apparent in the original data. Here, we provide a more detailed description of the method, explore the robustness of the solution to the noise level of input data and discuss the effect of parameter values.

Abstract
The yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) system is a binary method widely used to determine direct interactions between paired proteins. Although having certain limitations, this method has become one of the two main systemic tools (along with affinity purification/mass spectrometry) for interactome mapping in model organisms including yeast, Arabidopsis, and humans. It has also become the method of choice for investigating host-pathogen interactions in fungal pathosystems involving crop plants. This chapter describes general procedures to use the GAL4-based Y2H system for identification of host proteins that directly interact with proteinaceous fungal effectors, thus being their potential targets. The procedures described include cDNA library construction through in vivo recombination, library screening by yeast mating and cotransformation, as well as methods to analyze positive clones obtained from library screening. These procedures can also be adapted to confirmation of suspected interactions between characterized host and pathogen proteins or determination of interacting domains in partner proteins.

Abstract
Large amounts of detailed biological data have been generated over the past few decades. Much of these data is freely available in over 1000 online databases; an enticing, but frustrating resource for microbiologists interested in a systems-level view of the structure and function of microbial cells. The frustration engendered by the need to trawl manually through hundreds of databases in order to accumulate information about a gene, protein, pathway, or organism of interest can be alleviated by the use of computational data integration to generated network views of the system of interest. Biological networks can be constructed from a single type of data, such as protein-protein binding information, or from data generated by multiple experimental approaches. In an integrated network, nodes usually represent genes or gene products, while edges represent some form of interaction between the nodes. Edges between nodes may be weighted to represent the probability that the edge exists in vivo. Networks may also be enriched with ontological annotations, facilitating both visual browsing and computational analysis via web service interfaces. In this review, we describe the construction, analysis of both single-data source and integrated networks, and their application to the inference of protein function in microbes.

Abstract
Understanding the functions of proteins requires information about their protein-protein interactions (PPI). The collective effort of the scientific community generates far more data on any given protein than individual experimental approaches. The latter are often too limited to reveal an interactome comprehensively. We developed a workflow for parallel mining of all major PPI databases, containing data from several model organisms, and to integrate data from the literature for a protein of interest. We applied this novel approach to build the PPI network of the human Hsp90 molecular chaperone machine (Hsp90Int) for which previous efforts have yielded limited and poorly overlapping sets of interactors. We demonstrate the power of the Hsp90Int database as a discovery tool by validating the prediction that the Hsp90 co-chaperone Aha1 is involved in nucleocytoplasmic transport. Thus, we both describe how to build a custom database and introduce a powerful new resource for the scientific community.

Abstract
Robust advances in interactome analysis demand comprehensive, non-redundant and consistently annotated data sets. By non-redundant, we mean that the accounting of evidence for every interaction should be faithful: each independent experimental support is counted exactly once, no more, no less. While many interactions are shared among public repositories, none of them contains the complete known interactome for any model organism. In addition, the annotations of the same experimental result by different repositories often disagree. This brings up the issue of which annotation to keep while consolidating evidences that are the same. The iRefIndex database, including interactions from most popular repositories with a standardized protein nomenclature, represents a significant advance in all aspects, especially in comprehensiveness. However, iRefIndex aims to maintain all information/annotation from original sources and requires users to perform additional processing to fully achieve the aforementioned goals. Another issue has to do with protein complexes. Some databases represent experimentally observed complexes as interactions with more than two participants, while others expand them into binary interactions using spoke or matrix model. To avoid untested interaction information buildup, it is preferable to replace the expanded protein complexes, either from spoke or matrix models, with a flat list of complex members. To address these issues and to achieve our goals, we have developed ppiTrim, a script that processes iRefIndex to produce non-redundant, consistently annotated data sets of physical interactions. Our script proceeds in three stages: mapping all interactants to gene identifiers and removing all undesired raw interactions, deflating potentially expanded complexes, and reconciling for each interaction the annotation labels among different source databases. As an illustration, we have processed the three largest organismal data sets: yeast, human and fruitfly. While ppiTrim can resolve most apparent conflicts between different labelings, we also discovered some unresolvable disagreements mostly resulting from different annotation policies among repositories.

Abstract
In nature, mineralization of hard tissues occurs due to the synergistic effect of components present in the organic matrix of these tissues, with templating and catalytic effects. In Suberites domuncula, a well-studied example of the class of demosponges, silica formation is mediated and templated by an axial proteinaceous filament with silicatein-α, one of the main components. But so far, the effect of other organic constituents from the proteinaceous filament on the catalytic effect of silicatein-α has not been studied in detail. Here we describe the synthesis of core-shell TiO(2)@SiO(2) and TiO(2)@ZrO(2) nanofibers via grafting of silicatein-α onto a TiO(2) nanowire backbone followed by a coassembly of silintaphin-1 through its specifically interacting domains. We show for the first time a linker-free, one-step funtionalization of metal oxides with silicatein-α using glutamate tag. In the presence of silintaphin-1 silicatein-α facilitates the formation of a dense layer of SiO(2) or ZrO(2) on the TiO(2)@protein backbone template. The immobilization of silicatein-α onto TiO(2) probes was characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), optical light microscopy, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The coassembly of silicatein-α and silintaphin-1 may contribute to biomimetic approaches that pursue a controlled formation of patterned biosilica-based biomaterials.
