UNIPred-Web: a web tool for the integration and visualization of biomolecular networks for protein function prediction.

ABSTRACT:

Background

One of the main issues in the automated protein function prediction (AFP) problem is the integration of multiple networked data sources. The UNIPred algorithm was thereby proposed to efficiently integrate -in a function-specific fashion- the protein networks by taking into account the imbalance that characterizes protein annotations, and to subsequently predict novel hypotheses about unannotated proteins. UNIPred is publicly available as R code, which might result of limited usage for non-expert users. Moreover, its application requires efforts in the acquisition and preparation of the networks to be integrated. Finally, the UNIPred source code does not handle the visualization of the resulting consensus network, whereas suitable views of the network topology are necessa
