MCODE is a Cytoscape !PlugIn that finds clusters (highly interconnected regions) in any network loaded into Cytoscape. Depending on the type of network, clusters may mean different things. For instance, clusters in a protein-protein interaction network have been shown to be protein complexes and parts of pathways. Clusters in a protein similarity network represent protein families. | MCODE is a Cytoscape !PlugIn designed to aid in cluster discovery.

MCODE is a Cytoscape PlugIn designed to aid in cluster discovery. Clusters are deemed to be highly interconnected regions within a network. Depending on the type of network, clusters may mean different things. For instance, clustering of protein-protein interaction networks has been shown to produce protein complexes and parts of pathways. Clusters in a protein similarity network represent protein families.
MCODE is a relatively fast method of clustering, although it does not currently provide any statistical score on the resulting clusters. It can be used as discovery tool when analyzing a network. See the paper for more information.
