The amino acid sequences of non-redundant preliminary PPIs were extracted and domains were assigned to them using Pfam version 27.062. The list of non-redundant domain-domain interactions was prepared from the meta-databases Domine63, DIMA 3.064 and IDDI database65. These use complexes available in the Protein Data Bank (PDB)66 to identify by interacting domains the Pfam families containing these domains. These Pfam families are then predicted to be interacting. This list was used to parse the template PPIs. All interactions were categorized whether they are supported (good interactions, used for further filtering steps) or not by domain-domain interactions (DDIs).
