Pathway Reconstruction Algorithms

The graph algorithms below have been used (or have the potential to be used) for the pathway reconstruction task. This task is typically formulated as follows: given a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network (represented as a graph, which may be weighted and/or directed) and a set of proteins of interest, return a subnetwork of the PPI graph that contains the proteins of interest.

One of the parameter options for OmicsIntegraor1 is dummy_mode. There are 4 dummy mode possibilities:

  1. terminals: connect the dummy node to all nodes that have been assigned prizes
  2. all: connect the dummy node to all nodes in the interactome i.e. full set of nodes in graph
  3. others: connect the dummy node to all nodes that are not terminal nodes i.e. nodes w/o prizes
  4. file: connect the dummy node to a specific list of nodes provided in a file To support the file dummy node logic as part of OmicsIntegrator1, you can either add a separate dummy.txt file (and add this to the node_files argument in config.yaml ) or add a dummy column node attribute to a file that contains NODEID, prize, source, etc.

PathLinker

PathLinker takes as input (1) a weighted, directed PPI network, (2) two sets of nodes: a source set (representing receptors of a pathway of interest) and a target set (representing transcriptional regulators of a pathway of interest), and (3) an integer k. PathLinker efficiently computes the k-shortest paths from any source to any target and returns the subnetwork of the top k paths as the pathway reconstruction. Later work expanded PathLinker by incorporating protein localization information to re-score tied paths, dubbed Localized PathLinker (LocPL).
