The proteome, a set of proteins expressed in an organism, is organized in an intricate web called the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. In this article we propose a topological parameter called damage, that measures the consequences of the deletion of a protein from the network. We investig

## Abstract The emerging area of network biology is seeking to provide insights into organizational principles of life. However, despite significant collaborative efforts, there is still typically a weak link between biological and computational scientists and a lack of understanding of the researc
In this paper, we study spectral clustering for detecting protein complexes in PPI (protein-protein interaction) networks, focusing on two open issues: (i) constructing similarity graphs; and (ii) determining the number of clusters. First, we study four similarity graphs to construct graph Laplacian
## Abstract Water molecules at protein–protein interfaces contribute to the close packing of atoms and ensure complementarity between the protein surfaces, as well as mediating polar interactions. Therefore, modeling of interface water is of importance in understanding the structural basis of biomo
Interactions between proteins are essential for intracellular communication. They form complex networks which have become an important source for functional analysis of proteins. Combining phylogenies with network analysis, we investigate the evolutionary history of interaction networks from the bHL
In a previous study [Nachaliel et al., 1993], we identified an RNA-binding protein (RBP) in FTO-2B rat hepatoma cells whose activity was stimulated upon the dissociation of a protein factor. We report in this article that the RBP is a complex protein of about 400 kDa, composed of RNA-binding subunit
