Interaction Networks

INDRA (Integrated Network and Dynamical Reasoning Assembler) is an automated model assembly system drawing from natural language processing systems and structured databases. It collects mechanistic and causal assertions, represents them in a standardized form (INDRA Statements), and assembles them into various modeling formalisms including causal graphs and dynamical models. More information on this work can be found on Github. In this particular figure, several interaction-types are depicted; physical complexes (blue), phosphorylation (black), and general up- or downregulation (green and red, respectively). Biomacromolecules are represented as squares, small molecule as circles, and biological processes and diamonds. The thickness of each line reflects a confidence score, with thicker lines higher in confidence.


Available Assays, Plasmids, Cell Lines and Animal Models
BioID Plasmids
These plasmids are generated by Ben Major's lab and are available through Addgene. These lentiviral expression plasmids have been used to generate protein-proximity or protein-protein interaction networks using the miniTurbo biotin ligase-based proximity-dependent biotinylation or traditional immuno-purification approaches coupled with mass spectrometry. More information about these plasmids can be found at the following links:
NanoBRET Assay
A PAK5 NanoBRET Assay has been developed and validated. NanoLuc®-fused PAK5 is available from Promega by special request. Additional information about this assay is available here.

Kinase Tissue Expression Summary

The expression of kinases varies widely across the human tissues assayed by the GTEx project and the Human Proteome Map. To gain a better understanding of the kinase tissue distribution, we've created an application that describes and summarizes the expression of each dark kinase in the context of the rest of the kinome. This interactive window onto the full applications shows the data associated with PAK5. The graph summarizes the expression of the kinase across all the organ systems.

The full application can further explored at the Kinase Expression Data Application.


Reactome Pathways

The Reactome Knowledgebase of Human Biological Pathways and Processes is a curated and peer-reviewed knowledgebase available online as an open access resource that can be freely used and distributed by all members of the biological research community. This view of the reactome database is focused on PAK5 and displays the pathways associated with PAK5.
