MODELLING INTERACTOMES RAM SAMUDRALA ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON How does the genome of an organism specify its behaviour and characteristics? How can we use this information to improve human health and quality of life?
PROTEOME ~60,000 in human ~60,000 in rice ~4500 in bacteria Several thousand distinct sequence families
STRUCTURE A few thousand distinct structural folds
FUNCTION Tens of thousands of functions
EXPRESSION Different expression patterns based on time and location
INTERACTION Interaction and expression are interdependent with structure and function

APPLICATION: DRUG DISCOVERY HSV KHSVCMV Jenwitheesuk
APPLICATION: DRUG DISCOVERY HSV KHSV CMV Computionally predicted broad spectrum human herpesvirus protease inhibitors is effective in vitro against members from all three classes and is comparable or better than anti-herpes drugs HSV Our protease inhibitor acts synergistically with acylovir (a nucleoside analogue that inhibits replication) and it is less likely to lead to resistant strains compared to acylovir Lagunoff
