Opis

Host-pathogen protein-protein interaction (PPI) data are very important information for illuminating infection mechanisms and for developing better prevention measures. However, host-pathogen PPI data are very scarce in most host-pathogen systems. Computational prediction of host-pathogen PPIs is an important strategy to fill in the gap. In this book, I systemically investigate host-pathogen protein-protein interactions using the H. sapiens-M. tuberculosis H37Rv system as the model host-pathogen system.
