A seed expansion-based method to identify essential proteins by integrating protein–protein interaction sub-networks and multiple biological characteristics

Abstract Background The identification of essential proteins is of great significance in biology and pathology. However, protein–protein interaction (PPI) data obtained through high-throughput technology include a high number of false positives. To overcome this limitation, numerous computational al...
