Abstract:Motivation: Despite the advances in sequencing technology, massive proteins with known sequences remain functionally unannotated. Biological network alignment (NA), which aims to find the node correspondence between species' protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, has been a popular strategy to uncover missing annotations by transferring functional knowledge across species. Traditional NA methods assumed that topologically similar proteins in PPIs are functionally similar. However, it was recently reported… Show more
