Disclaimer: I am not a biologist. It seems implicit in this page that an Interactome, perhaps like a genome, is a body of information about some particular species. If so this should be made explicit.

If this is so the following question is begged:

 If protein X impacts protein Y in species A,
 why does it not impact it in species B?

Hopefully there is a short list of such known or proposed mechanisms and the list should be mentioned. I have recently heard a theory, whose name I have forgotten, that introns in the DNA (near the expressor gene of the impacted protein) may control such impact and thus are interactomes inherited.
