The article offers information on a study conducted on the essential protein discovery method, PeC, which is based on the integration of protein-protein interaction and gene expression data. It states that PeC was developed on the basis of the definitions of edge clustering coefficient (ECC) and Pearson's correlation coefficient (PCC). It mentions that a list of essential proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were collected.

Background: Identification of essential proteins is always a challenging task since it requires experimental approaches that are time-consuming and laborious. With the advances in high throughput technologies, a large number of protein-protein interactions are available, which have …

Background: Cellular systems are highly dynamic and responsive to cues from the environment. Cellular function and response patterns to external stimuli are regulated by biological networks. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network with static connectivity is dynamic in the sense that the nodes implement so-called functional activities that evolve in time. The shift from static to dynamic network analysis is essential for further understanding of molecular systems.

Results: In this paper, Time Course Protein Interaction Networks (TC- PINs) are reconstructed by incorporating time series gene expression into PPI networks. Then, a clustering algorithm is used to create functional modules from three …
