DNA Microarrays02:34

DNA Microarrays

21.8K
Microarrays are high-throughput and relatively inexpensive assays that can be automated to analyze large quantities of data at a time. They are used in genome-wide studies to compare gene or protein expression under two varied conditions, such as healthy and diseased states. Microarrays consist of glass or silica slides on which probe molecules are covalently attached through surface functionalization. Most commonly, the slides are prepared through the chemisorption of silanes to silica...

Genome Annotation and Assembly

21.4K
The genome refers to all of the genetic material in an organism. It can range from a few million base pairs in microbial cells to several billion base pairs in many eukaryotic organisms. Genome assembly refers to the process of taking the DNA sequencing data and putting it all back together in a correct order to create a close representation of the original genome. This is followed by the identification of functional elements on the newly assembled genome, a process called genome annotation.

How Data are Classified: Numerical Data

40.2K
Data that are countable or measurable in specific units are called numerical or quantitative data. Quantitative data are always numbers. Quantitative data are the result of counting or measuring the attributes of a population. Amount of money, pulse rate, weight, number of people living in a town, and number of students who opt for statistics are examples of quantitative data.
Quantitative data may be either discrete or continuous. All quantitative data that take on only specific numerical...

What is Gene Expression?

12.0K
A gene is a stretch of DNA that serves as the blueprint for functional RNAs and proteins. Since DNA is comprised  of nucleotides and proteins are comprised of amino acids, a mediator is required to convert the information encoded in DNA into proteins. This mediator is the messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA copies the blueprint from DNA by a process called transcription. In eukaryotes, transcription occurs in the nucleus by complementary base-pairing with the DNA template. The mRNA is then...

Overview
Gene expression is the process in which DNA directs the synthesis of functional products, that is, proteins. Cells can regulate gene expression at various stages. It allows organisms to generate different cell types and enables cells to adapt to internal and external factors.

Area of Science:

  • Bioinformatics
  • Machine Learning
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Gene Expression Data (GED) analysis is a significant challenge within Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) and Data Mining (DM).
  • Biclustering is a key machine learning technique for GED analysis, but its unsupervised nature complicates result assessment, often requiring Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA).
  • Existing methods struggle with the interpretability and assessment of biclustering results in GED analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a framework for Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) of GED that supports continuous human interaction for hypothesis generation and assessment.
  • To adapt data interpretation and visualization techniques for human cognition in the context of EDA.
  • To provide a robust method for assessing bicluster quality and inferring biological functions.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized Lattice Theory and Formal Concept Analysis (FCA), a lattice-theoretic unsupervised learning technique, for biclustering real-valued matrices.
  • Developed a method with interleaved analysis steps and visualization devices, generating sequences of hierarchical biclusterings based on different cost structures and thresholds.
  • Indexed external omics databases (e.g., Gene Ontology (GO)) using resulting biclusters to enable gene set enrichment analysis and p-value calculation.

Main Results:

  • Transformed GED analysis into the exploration of lattice sequences, visualizing hierarchical bicluster structures with adjustable granularity.
  • Defined measures of bicluster persistence and robustness for quantitative assessment.
  • Demonstrated the utility of FCA-based biclustering for indexing external databases, facilitating quality assessment and functional hypothesis generation.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed FCA-based biclustering framework enhances the interpretability and assessment of GED analysis through interactive lattice exploration.
  • Indexing external databases like GO provides a quality measure for biclusters and aids in inferring gene function and biological hypotheses.
  • This approach offers a novel way to visualize hierarchical bicluster structures and assess gene behavior across different bicluster contexts.
