Research Abstract |
In this research, we investigate and compare the community structure of the network defined by functional interactions between non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) and proteins related bio-macrolecules (PRMs) and the transcriptional regulatory network. Our findings show that the distributions of community sizes followed a scaling-law revealing a complex structure. In addition, the k-clique sub-graphs and overlaps show that the identified communities of the ncRNA molecules could potentially be associated with certain functions. Finally, we also derived mathematically the equations that predict projected network structure using only bipartite network information.
