Relevant Links
A web page for accessing the functional predictions made by the combined algorithm is available at http://www.doe-mbi.ucla.edu/people/marcotte/yeast.html as part of the website for the UCLS-DOE Lab for Structural Biology and Molecular Medicine.

The paper also relies on data from the MIPS Yeast database, DIP database, and Swiss-Prot database.
