In this post-genomic era, protein network can be used as a complementary way to shed light on the growing amount of data generated from current high-throughput technologies. Protein network is a powerful approach to describe the molecular mechanisms of the biological events through protein-protein interactions. Here, we describe the computational methods used to construct the protein network using expression data. We provide a list of available tools and databases that can be used in constructing the network.
