Abstract

Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) drive virtually all biological processes, yet most PPIs have not been identified and even more remain structurally unresolved. We developed a two-step computational screen for human PPIs. First, a classifier called KIRC (Knowledge-Informed Rapid Classifier), trained on biological features, was used to rank all 200 million possible protein pairs in the human prot…
