Abstract

Summary: Protein interaction networks have become an essential tool in large-scale data analysis, integration, and the visualization of high-throughput data in the context of complex cellular networks. Many individual databases are available that provide information on binary interactions of proteins and small molecules. Community efforts such as PSICQUIC aim to unify and standardize information emanating from these public databases. Here we introduce PsicquicGraph, an open-source, web-based visualization component for molecular interactions from PSIQUIC services.

Availability: PsicquicGraph is freely available at the BioJS Registry for download and enhancement. Instructions on how to use the tool are available here http://goo.gl/kDaIgZ and the source code can be found at http://github.com/biojs/biojs and DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7709.
