Implication

Database framework demonstrates integration of protein interaction evidence across ten major public repositories, facilitating the curation of reliable organism-specific interactomes.

Key Points

  • To introduce iRefWeb, an interactive web-based platform that consolidates protein-protein interaction records and supporting evidence from ten distinct public databases.
  • Aggregated and standardized protein interaction data from 10 public repositories: BIND, BioGRID, CORUM, DIP, IntAct, HPRD, MINT, MPact, MPPI, and OPHID.
  • Implemented tools to query aggregated interactions, view statistical summaries across databases, trace primary citations, and crop interactomes for specific organisms.
  • Provides multi-criteria quality assessment metrics, allowing researchers to evaluate interaction reliability based on experimental detection methods, study throughput, and citation counts.
  • Identifies and compares discrepancies in interaction data extracted from the same scientific publications across different source databases.
