Key Points

To review and classify computational strategies that exploit protein-protein interaction networks to predict unknown protein functions in model organisms.
Surveyed algorithmic approaches for functional annotation using protein interaction topology.
Categorized frameworks into direct propagation methods and module-assisted clustering techniques.
Direct methods assign functional roles by propagating known annotations through topological network neighbors.
Module-assisted methods delineate functional sub-networks or clusters to infer coordinated biological roles.
Field advancement depends on establishing standardized systematic performance evaluations and increasing accessibility for the experimental biology community.
