Date : April 13th, 2010 The iRefIndex plugin for Cytoscape has been officially released. Join the Google groups e-mail list at http://groups.google.com/group/irefindex?hl=en to be informed of updates. The plugin works with both Cytoscape 2.6.3 and 2.7. However, nodes appear as circles (instead of as ellipses) in 2.7. A fix will be released for 2.7 shortly.
Contents
Installation
The plugin can be installed using Cytoscape's plugin menu. Select "Manage plugins" and then "Available for Install" and then "Network and Attribute I/O" and finally
iRefScape v.0.79.
Follow the on screen instructions.
More detailed instructions, trouble-shooting tips and alternative methods are available on the iRefIndex Cytoscape Plugin 0.7 installation page.
After, installation, select iRefScape_0.79 from Cytoscape's plugin menu.
When the plugin is started for the first time, it will download the publicly available dataset.
Using the Wizard - an example search
Click the "Wizard" button - a pop-up window will appear.
Follow these steps
- Select "Search protein-protein interactions for a protein".
- Select "Protein or gene name".
- For "Taxonomy identifier", select "9606 (Human)"
- Type QCR2_HUMAN in the provided space. Click "Next".

Queries may be loaded from a file or by pasting the query into the text-box (one query per line).
Select a Search Type.
Example searches are listed below.
| Search Type | Example | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| RefSeq_Ac | NP_996224 | See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/221379660 |
| UniProt_Ac | Q7KSF4 | See http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q7KSF4 |
| UniProt_ID | Q7KSF4_DROME | See http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q7KSF4 |
| geneID | 42066 | See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?db=gene&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=full_report&list_uids=42066 |
| geneSymbol | cher | See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?db=gene&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=full_report&list_uids=42066 |
| mass | 72854<-->72866 | Search protein interactors for a range of molecular masses. |
| rog | 10121899 | Redundant object group: iRefIndex's internal identifier for a protein |
| PMID | 14605208 | PubMed Identifier where an interaction is described. See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed |
| src_intxn_id | 47513 | Source interaction database identifier. |
| omim | 227650 | OMIM identifier. See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/dispomim.cgi?id=227650 |
| digid | 449 | Internal identifier for a group of phenotypically related diseases. See http://donaldson.uio.no/wiki/DiG:_Disease_groups |
| dig_title | fanconi | Text search for a group of phenotypically related diseases. See http://donaldson.uio.no/wiki/DiG:_Disease_groups |
Select a taxon or type in a taxon identifier.
This will limit the search results to this organism. See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy for more details on taxon identifiers. In most search types, it is ok to leave this set to "Any".
Choose a distance from the query list
Selecting 0 will return only interactions between nodes found by the query list.
Selecting 1 will return immediate neighbours of nodes in the query list.
Expanded search
Selecting the "Expand result using canonical mappings" will expand the search to include all proteins that are related to the query protein (for example, splice isoforms). [See http://irefindex.uio.no/wiki/Canonicalization Canonicalization] for technical details.
Press the "Search and load" button.
Viewing the Results
Colours and shapes
- The blue node(s) corresponds to the protein found by your query.
- Green nodes are interacting partners for your query protein.
- Purple hexagons are complex-nodes (also called pseudo-nodes). They keep partners of a complex together (i.e. QCR6_HUMAN is found in two complexes also involving “QCR2_HUMAN”).
- Orange-yellow edges indicate protein-protein interactions and pink edges represent membership of some protein in a complex.
Toggling edges
Multiple edges may appear between two nodes. These represent separate interaction records that support this link. Details on each original record can be viewed using the edge attribute viewer (below). You can toggle this multi-view on and off by selecting "Toggle selected edges" in the iRefIndex menu. Only one of the edges will be shown in the collapsed view.
Expanding your interaction map
You can search for additional interactions by right-clicking on a node and selecting "iRefIndex -- Retrieve interactions".
Some example result displays are shown below.

Attributes
There are two types of attributes available from iRefIndex: node attributes and edge attributes. These may be used to view information about selected nodes or edges (like i.taxid). Some features may allow the user to link out to additional data sources through the "right-click" menu (like i.geneID). Features may also be used to sort and select nodes and edges with specific attributes (like i.order). The i.query feature shows the user's query that is responsible for returning the node or edge.
Brief descriptions and examples of each attribute are provided below.
- The user must first select the attributes that are to be displayed.
- This can be done by clicking on the "attribute" icon at the top of the node or edge attribute browser (red arrow).
Node Attributes
Each node represents a distinct amino acid sequence (protein) from a distinct organism (taxon id). Each of the attributes below, provide additional information about the node. Although each node is distinct, a graph produced by iRefIndex may contain multiple nodes that are related proteins (i.e., splice isoform products from the same gene). These nodes will all have the same "i.canonical_rog" and i.canonical_rogid" feature values. See notes below.
Node attributes that can be lists of items (like i.UniProt) will have a corresponding attribute called i.[attribute name]_TOP (e.g. i.UniProt_TOP) that is the first item of the list.
| Attribute name | Data type | Example value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ID | Integer | 10121899 | This is a unique identifier for the node assigned by iRefIndex (no two nodes will have the same ID). Each node corresponds to distinct amino acid sequence from a distinct taxon id. See also i.rog and i.rogid |
| canonicalName | Integer | 10121899 | This is the same as ID. This attribute is set by Cytoscape and is unrelated to the i.canonical_rog or i.canonical_rogid used by iRefIndex |
| i.RefSeq_Ac | List | [NP_996224] | All RefSeq accessions with an amino acid sequence and taxon identifier identical to the protein represented by this node. Right click on this entry and select "Search [RefSeq_Ac] on the web -- Entrez -- Protein" for more information. See also i.RefSeq_TOP for the first entry in this list of accessions. |
| i.UniProt_Ac | List | [Q7KSF4] | All UniProt accessions with an amino acid sequence and taxon identifier identical to the protein represented by this node. Right click on this entry and select "Search [UniProt_Ac] on the web -- UniProt -- KB Beta" for more information. See also i.UniProt_Ac_TOP for the first entry in this list of accessions. |
| i.UniProt_ID | List | [Q7KSF4_DROME] | All UniProt IDs with an amino acid sequence and taxon identifier identical to the protein represented by this node. Right click on this entry and select "Search [UniProt_ID] on the web -- UniProt -- KB Beta" for more information. See also i.UniProt_ID_TOP for the first entry in this list of IDs. |
| i.canonical_rog | Integer | 10121899 | Related proteins (say splice isoforms from the same gene) will all belong to the same canonical group. One member of this group is assigned as the canonical representative of this group. The i.canonical_rog attribute lists the identifier of the protein's canonical group identifier. For example, all products of Entrez Gene 42066 have the same i.canonical_rog (10121899). Each of these gene products has its own identifier (because they each have a distinct amino acid sequence). One of the splice isoforms (NP_996224) was chosen as the canonical representative of this group. See http://irefindex.uio.no/wiki/Canonicalization for more details on how canonical groups are constructed and how canonical representatives are chosen. |
| i.canonical_rogid | String | 1ZFb1WlW0OgOlhiAPtkJTdb6oOg7227 | This is a unique alphanumeric key for the canonical representative of the canonical group to which this node belongs. Briefly, an SHA-1 digest of the amino acid sequence is used to generate a unique 27 character key and this is pre-pended to the taxon id for the protein's source organism in order to make the rogid. See PMID 18823568 for details on how this key can be generated. This is a string equivalent of the i.canonical_rog attribute. All canonical_rog's (an integer) have one corresponding canonical_rogid. See http://irefindex.uio.no/wiki/Canonicalization for more details on how canonical groups are constructed and how canonical representatives are chosen. Note that the rogid for the protein represented by this specific node is listed under i.rogid. |

Right click on this entry and select "Search [geneSymbol] on the web -- Entrez -- Gene" for more information. See also i.geneSymbol_TOP for the first entry in this list. |
| i.interactor_description | List | [Q7KSF4_DROME, CHER, DMEL_CG3937, SKO, DMEL CG3937, FLN, CG3937, CHER, DMEL\\CG3937, FLN, SKO, CHER, NAME=CHER, DMEL_CG3937] | A collection of all the names in their short form as given by the original interaction databases. See also i.interactor_description_TOP for the first entry in this list. |

| i.popularity | List | 42 | TO BE DESCRIBED |
| i.pseudonode | Boolean | false | This is set to true is the node represents a "complex" or n-ary interaction record. Protein nodes with edges incident to a pseudonode are member interactors from the interaction record where specific interactions between pairs of interactors is unknown. Pseudonodes appear as hexagons when using the iRefIndex VizMapper style. |

Each node corresponds to distinct amino acid sequence from a distinct taxon id. i.rog also appears as the ID attribute. Each i.rog has a corresponding i.rogid - see below. |
| i.rogid | String | 2mL9oLZ9g/SSPyK0nOz97RmOzPg3702 | This is a unique alphanumeric key for the protein represented by this node. Briefly, an SHA-1 digest of the amino acid sequence is used to generate a unique 27 character key and this is pre-pended to the taxon id for the protein's source organism in order to make the rogid. See PMID 18823568 for details on how this key can be generated. This is a string equivalent of the i.rog attribute. All i.rog's (an integer) have one corresponding i.rogid. |
