Abstract

Understanding of dysregulation in cancers requires knowledge, beyond cancer genomes, of the interactions of cancer-associated proteins. Here, the authors use high-throughput, time-resolved FRET to map protein–protein interactions to establish a lung cancer protein network, and demonstrate its utility in revealing new oncogenic pathways and connectivity of tumour suppressors with druggable targets.
