High-throughput studies, coupled with the aggregation of individual experiments, provides a global ‘snapshot’ of the protein interactions occurring at all levels of biological processes or circumstances. This snapshot of the interaction network, the interactome, is important to understand the overall events up to the level of comparison between species or pathway simulation, or to find new factors yet undefined in the processes, or to add details to the biological processes and pathways.
