General idea behind sequence-based PPI prediction. These approaches make use of homology relationships and knowledge about protein interaction networks. An interaction is proposed to occur between the query protein Q and the protein T2, if Q shares similarity with the protein T1 on the sequence level and T1 is experimentally known to interact with T2
