Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) have significant impacts on biological activities, cellular functions, drug repurposing, and drug target discovery. The STRING server integrates all known and predicted associations between proteins, including both functional associations and physical interactions . Protein-protein interactions were predicted for 20 pathogen specific EHPs, of which the best 2 were selected based on their STRING score (Table ). The STRING scores ranged from 0.588 to 0.999. Three EHPs namely, Q5NG80, Q5NG31, and Q5NFJ0, showed the highest scores, whereas Q5NEJ5 showed the lowest scores (Fig. ).
