The computational prediction of protein-protein interactions is currently a major issue in bioinformatics. Recently, a variety of co-evolution-based methods have been investigated toward this goal. In this study, we introduced a partial correlation coefficient as a new measure for the degree of co-evolution between proteins, and proposed its use to predict protein-protein interactions.
