Integration of biological networks and gene expression data using Cytoscape

TLDR
This protocol explains how to use Cytoscape to analyze the results of mRNA expression profiling, and other functional genomics and proteomics experiments, in the context of an interaction network obtained for genes of interest.
Abstract
Cytoscape is a free software package for visualizing, modeling and analyzing molecular and genetic interaction networks. This protocol explains how to use Cytoscape to analyze the results of mRNA expression profiling, and other functional genomics and proteomics experiments, in the context of an interaction network obtained for genes of interest. Five major steps are described: (i) obtaining a gene or protein network, (ii) displaying the network using layout algorithms, (iii) integrating with gene expression and other functional attributes, (iv) identifying putative complexes and functional modules and (v) identifying enriched Gene Ontology annotations in the network. These steps provide a broad sample of the types of analyses performed by Cytoscape.

Beyond the one-locus-one-miRNA paradigm: microRNA isoforms enable deeper insights into breast cancer heterogeneity

TL;DR: Findings provide evidence that post-transcriptional studies of BRCA will benefit from transcending the one-locus-one-miRNA paradigm and taking into account all isoforms from each miRNA locus as well as the patient's race.

SPATA2 links CYLD to the TNF‐α receptor signaling complex and modulates the receptor signaling outcomes

TL;DR: This study employs quantitative mass spectrometry to demonstrate that TNF‐α stimulation induces widespread protein phosphorylation and that the scope ofosphorylation expands in a temporal manner, and identifies SPATA2 as a novel component of TNF-α signaling.
