The majority of protein interactions in most organisms are unknown, and experimental methods for determining protein interactions can yield divergent results. Here we use an orthogonal, purely computational method based on sequence coevolution to discover protein interactions at large scale. In the model organism Escherichia coli, 53% of protein pairs in the proteome are eligible for our method given currently available sequenced genomes. When assaying the entire cell envelope proteome, which is understudied due to experimental challenges, we found 620 likely interactions and their predicted structures, increasing the space of known interactions by 529. Our results show that genomic sequencing data can be used to predict and resolve protein interactions to atomic resolution at large scale.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
