Cytoscape 2 3 1 User Manual Institut Pasteur Agilent Technologies i Agilent Technologies Funding for Cytoscape is provided by a federal grant from the U S National Institute of General Medical Sciences NIGMS of the National Institutes of Health NIH under award number GM070743 01 Corporate funding is provided through a contract from Unilever PLC Introduction Cytoscape is an open source community software project for integrating biomolecular interaction networks with high throughput expression data and other molecular state information for visualization and analysis Although applicable to any system of molecular components and interactions Cytoscape is most powerful when used in conjunction with large databases of protein protein protein DNA and genetic interactions that are increasingly available for humans and model organisms A software Core provides basic functionality to layout and query the network to visually integrate the network with expression profiles phenotypes and other molecular state information and to link the network to databases of functional annotations The Core is extensible through a plug in architecture allowing rapid development of additional computational analyses and features The central organizing metaphor of Cytoscape is a network graph with genes proteins and molecules represented as nodes and interactions represented as links i e edges between nodes D
