Database descriptionDatabase descirption STRING is a database of known and predicted protein interactions, including both physical and functional interactions. It contains data which derived from four sources: genomic context, high-throughput experiments, coexpression and previous knowledge. This database quantitatively integrates interaction data from these sources for a large number of organisms, and transfers information between these organisms where applicable. It performs iterative searches and visualizes the results in their genomic context. Many data including protein sequences, protein network, interaction types for protein links, orthologous groups or full database dumps (license required) are downloadable.
