Non-uniform survival rate of heterodimerization links in the evolution of the yeast protein-protein interaction network.

Protein-protein interaction networks (PINs) are scale-free networks with a small-world property. In a small-world network, the average cluster coefficient (<C>) is much higher than in a random network, but the average shortest path length (<L>) is similar between the two networks. To und...
