Interactome

The interactome is like a big club where different molecules can hang out and talk to each other. Just like how you have your best friends that you like to talk and play with, molecules also have their favorite friends that they like to interact with.

In this club, some molecules like to interact all the time, while others prefer to interact only when they need to do a specific task. And just like how you have different games and toys that you like to play with, the molecules in the interactome have different things that they like to do together.

Scientists study the interactome to better understand how these different molecules work together and how they can affect different processes in your body. It's like a big puzzle that they are trying to solve, and the interactome helps them see how all the pieces fit together.

So, think of the interactome as a giant playground full of different molecules that like to have fun and work together to help keep your body healthy!
