Path2PPI: An R package to predict protein-protein interaction networks for a set of proteins

Abstract

Summary: We introduce Path2PPI, a new R package to identify protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks for fully sequenced organisms for which nearly none PPI are known. Path2PPI predicts PPI networks based on sets of proteins from well-established model organisms, providing an intuitive visualization and usability. It can be used to combine and transfer information of a certain pathway or biological process from several reference organisms to one target organism.
