Abstract:
:Genomic research is expected to generate new types of complex observational data, changing the types of experiments as well as our understanding of biological processes. The investigation and definition of relationships among proteins is essential for understanding the function of each gene and the mechanisms of biological processes that specific genes are involved in. Recently, a study by Paulmurugan et al. demonstrated a tool for in vivo noninvasive imaging of protein-protein interactions and intracellular networks.
