Key points on protein
interactions
High false positive rate
High false negative rate
Currently, not much overlap between published
interaction datasets
Most confidence given to observed interactions with
other supporting evidence.
Protein-DNA interactions

Key points on protein-DNA
interactions
There has not been much data
historically.
With new technology, that is changing
rapidly.
The technology is still immature, and
data interpretation should be done
cautiously.

Genetic Interactions
From: Nature Biotechnology 23, 561 - 566 (2005)
Key points on association
data
An association does not imply an
interaction.
Compared to protein interaction data
Higher false positive rate
Often better coverage, lower false
negative rate
Always remember: interactions are
context-dependent!
