Protein-Protein Interactions. Protein Quaternary Structure. No covalent bonding. Homo- oligimer vs Hetero- oligimer. Protein Complex. Subunits = each protein Protein complex performs a biological function. To the left is the proteasome. Degrades unneeded and damaged proteins

Protein Quaternary Structure No covalent bonding
Protein Complex Subunits = each protein Protein complex performs a biological function. To the left is the proteasome. Degrades unneeded and damaged proteins Complexes are amazing cellular “machines.”
Graph or Network Abstraction of Protein-Protein Interactions Mass spectrometry A important technique for discovering edges in this graph.

This looks weird. Strange interactions between “ground truth complexes”
Correlation to protein-protein interactions in another species and cross validation looks good Look back at the ML procedure… something is weird here no? Wasn’t fly used In the “training procedure”?
385 novel protein complexes discovered! Supported by Affinity purification experiments.
New complexes tend to have conserved protein interactions in other species
Complexes occur in other species and members seen to be expressed in the same tissues
