Prediction of protein interactions with function in protein (de-)phosphorylation.

ABSTRACT: Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) form a complex network called "interactome" that regulates many functions in the cell. In recent years, there is an increasing accumulation of evidence supporting the existence of a hyperbolic geometry underlying the network representation of complex systems such as the interactome. In particular, it has been shown that the embedding of the human Protein-Interaction Network (hPIN) in hyperbolic space (H2) captures biologically relevant information. Here we explore whether this mapping contains information that would allow us to predict the function of PPIs, more specifically interactions related to post-translational modification (PTM). We used a random forest algorithm to predict PTM-related directed PPIs, concretely, protein phosphorylation and dephosp
