Inter-Tools: a toolkit for interactome analysis
Interactome analysis is an increasingly useful tool for discovering disease pathways. However, protein interaction data is scattered among different sources, and researchers must often sift through several large repositories before beginning a project. Inter-Tools allows users to search databases in the PSI-MITAB standard format for interactions meeting specified criteria, then combine them into a single, species-specific interactome dataset. It also produces graph files of interactome networks and performs basic analysis on user-input gene sets. Inter-Tools reduces the barriers to preliminary interactome investigation and hypothesis generation.\n\nAvailabilitywww.github.com/catabia/inter-tools\n\nContacthannahcatabia@gmail.com\n\nSupplementary information available at the website listed above.
