ABSTRACT
Protein protein interaction (PPI) networks of many organisms
share global topological features such as degree distribution, k - hop
reachability, betweenness and closeness. Yet some of these networks
can differ significantly from the others in terms of local structures: e.g.
the number of specific network motifs can vary significantly among
PPI networks.
