New publication: A human interactome in 3 quantitative dimensions

Post by Carsten Hoege

Congratulations to Marco Hein, Nina Hubner, our own Ina Poser, and colleagues on their new publication in Cell, “A human interactome in three quantitative dimensions organized by stoichiometries and abundances.” This is a truly impressive body of work which globally analyzes protein interactions in order to better understand protein networks and cell organization. This dataset connects 5,400 proteins with 28,500 interactions and shows that weak interactions dominate the protein network.
