1. Complex Network Models
2. Properties of Protein-Protein Interaction
Networks
Complex Network Models:
Average Path length L, Clustering coefficient C, Degree
Distribution P(k) help understand the structure of the
network.
Some well-known types of Network Models are as
follows:
•Regular Coupled Networks
•Random Graphs
•Small world Model
•Scale-free Model
•Hierarchical Networks

Erdos and Renyi introduced the concept of random
graph around 40 years ago.

Random Graph
Usually to compare a real network with a
random network we first generate a random
network of the same size i.e. with the same
number of nodes and edges.
Other than Erdos Reyini random graphs there
are other type of random graphs
A Random graph can be constructed such that it
matches the degree distribution or some other
topological properties of a given graph
Geometric random graphs
Small world model (Watts and Strogatz)
Oftentimes,soon after meeting a stranger, one is surprised to
find that they have a common friend in between; so they both
cheer:
“What a small world!”
What a small world!!

P(k)
Scale-free model (Barabási and Albert)
Start with a small number of nodes; at every time step,
a new node is introduced and is connected to alreadyexisting nodes following Preferential Attachment
(probability is high that a new node be connected to
high degree nodes)
Average path length L is
Low
Clustering coefficient C is
not clearly known.
Degree distribution is
power-law type.

Scale-free networks exhibit robustness
Robustness – The ability of complex systems to maintain their
function even when the structure of the system changes significantly
Tolerant to random removal of nodes (mutations)
Vulnerable to targeted attack of hubs (mutations) – Drug
targets
Scale-free model (Barabási and Albert)
The term “scale-free” refers to any functional form
f(x) that remains unchanged to within a
multiplicative factor under a rescaling of the
independent variable x i.e. f(ax) = bf(x).
This means power-law forms (P(k) ~ k-γ), since
these are the only solutions to f(ax) = bf(x), and
hence “power-law” is referred to as “scale-free”.
Hierarchical Graphs

The starting point of this construction
is a small cluster of four densely
linked nodes (see the four central
nodes in figure).Next, three replicas of
this module are generated and the
three external nodes of the replicated
clusters connected to the central node
of the old cluster, which produces a
large 16-node module. Three replicas
of this 16-node module are then
generated and the 12 peripheral nodes
connected to the central node of the
old module, which produces a new
module of 64 nodes.
Hierarchical Graphs
The hierarchical network model seamlessly integrates a scale-free topology with
an inherent modular structure by generating a network that has a power-law
degree distribution with degree exponent γ = 1 +ln4/ln3 = 2.26 and a large,
system-size independent average clustering coefficient <C> ~ 0.6. The most
important signature of hierarchical modularity is the scaling of the clustering
coefficient, which follows C(k) ~ k –1 a straight line of slope –1 on a log–log plot

protein-protein interaction
Typical protein-protein interaction
A protein binds with another or several other proteins in
order to perform different biological functions---they are
called protein complexes.

•The results of the experiments are converted to binary
interactions.
•The binary interactions can be represented as a
network/graph where a node represents a protein and an edge
represents an interaction.
