Course Overview
This workshop will guide novice users through the process of analysing interaction networks – that allow biologists to map and characterise signalling pathways and to predict the function of unknown proteins. It will use practical examples in the popular open-source tool Cytoscape and the PSICQUIC client to access several protein interaction repositories at the same time to integrate protein data from different sources. Data from external sources will then be incorporated using different Cytoscape apps to perform clustering and GO enrichment analysis over our newly created networks.
Audience
The workshop is aimed to biologists or computer scientists with little or no previous knowledge of Cytoscape. Basic knowledge of interaction data resources and techniques is recommended.
Learning outcomes
After this course you should be able to:
- Understand how the PSICQUIC client can help you to integrate molecular interaction data from different oublic repositories
- Utilise a range of Cytoscape apps to generate and analyse interaction networks
