Here, we provide a resource derived through data mining to infer disease- and tissue-relevant interactions by annotating existing PPI databases with cell-contextual information extracted from reporting studies. This resource is applicable to the reconstruction and analysis of disease-centric molecular interaction networks. We have made the data and method publicly available and plan to release scheduled updates in the future. We expect these resources to be of interest to a wide audience of researchers in the life sciences.<\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cell.com\/patterns\/fulltext\/S2666-3899(20)30201-4#.X71pHnkbHak.twitter\">here<\/a> to read the full article.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: Patterns Highlights We present PPI Context: contextualization of existing literature-curated PPIs A resource for filtering PPIs by cell-line information mined from reporting studies A fast and flexible pipeline implementing the presented data mining method The Bigger Picture Existing literature-curated protein-protein interaction (PPI) databases usually aggregate cell-type-agnostic interactions, yet PPIs are dependent on environmental conditions.
