	%X Due to the ever growing amount of publications about
protein-protein interactions, information extraction from text is
increasingly recognized as one of crucial technologies in
bioinformatics. This paper presents a Protein Interaction Extraction
System using a Link Grammar Parser from biomedical abstracts
(PIELG). PIELG uses linkage given by the Link Grammar Parser to
start a case based analysis of contents of various syntactic roles as
well as their linguistically significant and meaningful combinations.
The system uses phrasal-prepositional verbs patterns to overcome
preposition combinations problems. The recall and precision are
74.4% and 62.65%, respectively. Experimental evaluations with two
other state-of-the-art extraction systems indicate that PIELG system
achieves better performance. For further evaluation, the system is
augmented with a graphical package (Cytoscape) for extracting
protein interaction information from sequence databases. The result
shows that the performance is remarkably promising.
