Overview

The Cellular Network Knowledge Base (CNKB) is a repository of interactions between pairs of proteins (these interactions can be either computationally or experimentally derived). Both direct, physical interactions can be captured as well as indirect transcriptional relationships (where an interaction is between a transcription factor and its gene target). Each pairwise interaction has an associated confidence indicator (a value between 0 and 1) reflecting the strength of the underlying data, whether experimental or computational.

This component allows the user to select a group of markers and specify for each the interaction type of interest (Protein-Protein and/or Protein-DNA). All interactions (of the designated types) involving the selected markers are retrieved from the CNKB and displayed (along with associated information such as GO annotation, interaction attributes, etc) both in the CNKB component and also in Cytoscape.
