Biological networks and infectious diseases
This month we feature a mini-review by Mulder and collaborators that focuses on the advantages of using biological network models to improve our understanding of infectious diseases. Specifically, Mulder and collaborators discuss the use of biological networks for function prediction, comparison in evolutionary studies as well as generation and use of host-pathogen interaction networks, all applied to the infectious disease Tuberculosis, its causing agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and its favorite host… Homo sapiens!

New collaborations for NDEx
The NDEx Project has successfully started new collaborations with the "LIPID Metabolites And Pathways Strategy (LIPID MAPS)" and the "Binding Database" to provide easy access to new valuable data on lipid metabolites and small molecules binding measurements.
The lipid metabolites networks (BioPAX3 format) are available on the NDEx Public Server and maintained by the LIPID MAPS team: click the image below to browse the LIPID MAPS networks on NDEx!
Ligand-target binding measurement data from the Binding Database will be available later this summer.
