Abstract
To initiate studies on how protein-protein interaction (or
``interactome'') networks relate to multicellular functions, we have
mapped a large fraction of the Caenorhabditis elegans interactome
network. Starting with a subset of metazoan-specific proteins, more than
4000 interactions were identified from high-throughput, yeast two-hybrid
(HT=Y2H) screens. Independent coaffinity purification assays
experimentally validated the overall quality of this Y2H data set.
Together with already described Y2H interactions and interologs
predicted in silico, the current version of the Worm Interactome (WI5)
map contains ~5500 interactions. Topological and biological features of
this interactome network, as well as its integration with phenome and
transcriptome data sets, lead to numerous biological hypotheses.
