Identification of Age-Related Macular Degeneration Related Genes by Applying Shortest Path Algorithm in Protein-Protein Interaction Network

This study attempted to find novel age-related macular degeneration (AMD) related genes based on 36 known AMD genes. The well-known shortest path algorithm, Dijkstra’s algorithm, was applied to find the shortest path connecting each pair of known AMD related genes in protein-protein interaction (PPI...
