BACKGROUND: Diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms pose a persistent global health challenge. Pathogens exploit host mechanisms through intricate molecular interactions. Understanding these host-pathogen interactions (HPIs), particularly protei...
Identifying phage-host interactions (PHIs) is a crucial step in developing phage therapy, which is the promising solution to addressing the issue of antibiotic resistance in superbugs. However, the lifestyle of phages, which strongly depends on their...
Host-pathogen protein interactions (HPPIs) play vital roles in many biological processes and are directly involved in infectious diseases. With the outbreak of more frequent pandemics in the last couple of decades, such as the recent outburst of Covi...
The Reactome Knowledgebase (https://reactome.org), an Elixir core resource, provides manually curated molecular details across a broad range of physiological and pathological biological processes in humans, including both hereditary and acquired dise...

The development of vaccines for the treatment of COVID-19 is paving the way for new hope. Despite this, the risk of the virus mutating into a vaccine-resistant variant still persists. As a result, the demand of efficacious drugs to treat COVID-19 is ...
During the course of a viral infection, virus-host protein-protein interactions (PPIs) play a critical role in allowing viruses to replicate and survive within the host. These interspecies molecular interactions can lead to viral-mediated perturbatio...

The association of the receptor binding domain (RBD) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein with human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) represents the first required step for cellular entry. SARS-CoV-2 ha...
With the increasing volume of high-throughput sequencing data from a variety of omics techniques in the field of plant-pathogen interactions, sorting, retrieving, processing and visualizing biological information have become a great challenge. Within...
The protein-protein interactions (PPIs) between human and viruses mediate viral infection and host immunity processes. Therefore, the study of human-virus PPIs can help us understand the principles of human-virus relationships and can thus guide the ...
