| MCODE is a Cytoscape !PlugIn designed to find clusters in large networks. Clusters are deemed to be more highly interconnected regions within the network and depending on the nature of the network, they may mean different things. For instance, clustering of protein-protein interaction networks has been shown to produce protein complexes and parts of pathways while clusters in protein similarity networks represent protein families. | MCODE is a [http://cytoscape.org Cytoscape] plugin that finds clusters (highly interconnected regions) in a network.

| MCODE is a relatively fast method of clustering. With an intuitive interface, it is suited for both computationally and biologically oriented reserachers. MCODE allows the user to: * fine-tune numerous node-scoring and cluster-finding parameters * explore clusters interactively with real-time results * manipulate cluster size * visualize results logically with conservative layouter * enumerate the clusters' node attributes for functional consistancy * manage multiple result sets * Output results * generate sub-networks from clusters * export results as text for spreadsheet purposes Currently, MCODE does not provide any statistical score on the resulting clusters but can be used as discovery tool in network analysis. Please see the [http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/4/2 MCODE paper] for more information. |
