PPI layouts: BioJS components for the display of Protein-Protein Interactions [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/2u5]

Abstract

Summary: We present two web-based components for the display of Protein-Protein Interaction networks using different self-organizing layout methods: force-directed and circular. These components conform to the BioJS standard and can be rendered in an HTML5-compliant browser without the need for third-party plugins. We provide examples of interaction networks and how the components can be used to visualize them, and refer to a more complex tool that uses these components.
