Patrick Aloy's group have developed a new bioinformatics platform that is already available online to the public. Interactome 3D offers tridimensional information of protein-protein interactions at atomic scale. This tool also allows researchers to upload in an anonymous way their own data on proteins, and the programme then models their interactions.

Diario Médico has published a news article about this tool, which could be very useful for researchers working in molecular and cellular biology.

Access the platform at http://interactome3d.irbbarcelona.org/
