Experiment | Network bias tested by BIOREL | BIOREL modules | Bias scorea | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Ito | Uetz | Overlapped, Ito+Uetz | |||
1 | Interacting proteins share the same function | FunCat module | 0.1 | 0.18 | 0.30 |
2 | Interacting proteins share sequence similarity (or partial similarity) | Sequence Similarity and InterPro Domain modules | 0.05 | 0.10 | 0.15 |
3 | Interacting proteins have the same length | Gene length module | ∼0.01b | ∼0.01b | ∼0.01b |
aThe bias score is a proportion of genes in the network with significantly (P < 0.01) biased associations.
bThe biases were not found to be significant compared with random networks.
