Figure 2From: Inferring the functions of longevity genes with modular subnetwork biomarkers of Caenorhabditis elegansagingIdentifying modular subnetworks. (a) Start with the largest connected component of the functional interaction network representing all genes whose expression has been measured. (b) Weight every edge of the network with the absolute value of the Spearman correlation between the two genes flanking it. (c) Identify age-related subnetworks by growing subnetworks iteratively out from seed nodes.Back to article page
