Protein-protein Interactions and Networks Identification, Computer Analysis, and Prediction

Integrates different approaches from bioinformatics, biochemistry, computational analysis and systems biology to offer the reader a global view of the diverse data on protein-protein interactions and protein interaction networks

Protein-protein interactions and networks: identification, analysis and prediction brings together the descriptions of experimental techniques and expounds on different computational algorithms for protein network analysis and prediction of protein and domain interactions

Each chapter contains a description of the problem, a review of methods and algorithms, a list of online resources, conclusions and future directions

Offering broad coverage on the topic, this book will be of interest to researchers from academia and the bioinformatics industry; will also be of use to graduate students studying the topic
