The R package STRINGdb provides a convenient interface to the STRING protein-protein interactions database for the R/bioconductor users. Please look at the manual/vignette to get additional informationd and examples on how to use the package. STRING is a database of known and predicted protein-protein interactions. It contains information from numerous sources, including experimental repositories, computational prediction methods and public text collections. Each interaction is associated with a combined confidence score that integrates the various evidences. STRING is regularly updated , the latest version 9.05 contains information on 5 millions proteins from more than 1100 species. The STRING web interface is freely accessible at: http://string-db.org/

Take in input a dataframe containing a logFC column that reports the logarithm of the difference in expression level. Add a "color" column to the data frame such that strongly downregulated genes are colored in green and strong upregulated genes are in red. When the down or up-regulation is instead weak the intensity of the color gets weaker as well, accordingly.
