Schematic representation of the interlogs approach. (A) Interlog based mapping approach for predicting intra-species PPIs. If A–A′ and B–B′ are orthologous sets of protein in two organisms X and Y and the proteins A and B are known to interact in organism X, then the interlog based mapping approach concludes a possible PPI between the proteins A′ and B′ in organism Y. (B) Modified (inter-species) interlog method that was employed for predicting the HPIs. X represents the host and Y represents the pathogen (or vice versa). If protein A and protein B of organism X are known to interact among each other, and if there exists a homolog to protein A (protein A′) in organism Y, then the modified interlog method assumes that protein A′ will also interact with protein B through a PPI.
