ADVICE (Automated Detection and Validation of Interaction by Co-Evolution) is a web tool for predicting and validating protein-protein interactions using the observed co-evolution between interacting proteins. Interacting proteins are known to share similar evolutionary histories since they undergo coordinated evolutionary changes to preserve interactions and functionalities. The web tool automates a commonly adopted methodology to quantify the similarities in proteins' evolutionary histories for postulating potential protein-protein interactions. ADVICE can also be used to validate experimental data against spurious protein interactions by identifying those that have few similarities in their evolutionary histories. The web tool accepts a list of protein sequences or sequence pairs as input and retrieves orthologous sequences to compute the similarities in the proteins' evolutionary histories. To facilitate hypothesis generation, detected co-evolved proteins can be visualized as a network at the website. ADVICE is available at http://advice.i2r.a-star.edu.sg.
