Abstract

BACKGROUND: Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) has emerged as a key role in the control of many biological processes including protein function, disease incidence, and therapy design. However, the identification of PPI by wet lab experiment is a challenging task, since it is laborious, time consuming and expensive. Therefore, computational prediction of PPI is now given emphasis before going to the experimental validation, since it is simultaneously less laborious, time saver and cost minimizer.
