Validating the Interactome
Jeffrey Perkel | Jun 20, 2004 | 10+ min read
MOLECULAR CARTOGRAPHY:Recognizing that much of the cell's work is done not by individual proteins but by large macromolecular complexes, researchers increasingly are trying to map protein-protein interactions throughout the cell. This map of the C. elegans interaction network, or "interactome," links 2,898 proteins (nodes) by 5,460 interactions (edges). (reprinted with permission, Science, 303:540–3, 2004.)If you want a sense of one of the hottest trends in biology today, open the hood of
Inflammation's infamy

There is continuing controversy about whether these types of inflammatory cells are responding to plaques or causing them. A finger catches the sharp edge of an envelope; a noseful of tree pollen is accidentally inhaled; the latest virus finds host after human host. In all cases the assaulted body reacts through inflammation, a well known, but not

By Alla Katsnelson n a November weekend, more than 800 people gathered at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to show off six months of hard work. Each person wore one of 84 different shirts; some had a classic, young, professional design, while others ado
Bacteria and Humans Have Been Swapping DNA for Millennia
