  1. Analysis of Affymetrix GeneChip Data EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  2. Basic Design of Expression Arrays • For each gene that is a target for the array, we have a known DNA sequence. • mRNA is reverse transcribed to DNA, and if a complementary sequence is on the on a chip, the DNA will be more likely to stick • The DNA is labeled with a dye that will fluoresce and generate a signal that is monotonic in the amount in the sample EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  4. Affymetrix GeneChips use multiple 25-mers • For each gene, one or more sets of 8-20 distinct probes • May overlap • May cover more than one exon • Affymetrix chips also use mismatch (MM) probes that have the same sequence as perfect match probes except for the middle base which is changed to inhibitbinding. • This is supposed to act as a control, but often instead binds to another mRNA species, so many analysts do not use them EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  5. Probe Design • A good probe sequence should match the chosen gene or exon from a gene and should not match any other gene in the genome. • Melting temperature depends on the GC content and should be similar on all probes on an array since the hybridization must be conducted at a single temperature. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  6. The affinity of a given piece of DNA for the probe sequence can depend on many things, including secondary and tertiary structure as well as GC content. • This means that the relationship between the concentration of the RNA species in the original sample and the brightness of the spot on the array can be very different for different probes for the same gene. • Thus only comparisons of intensity within the same probe across arrays makes sense. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  7. Affymetrix GeneChips • For each probe set, there are 8-20 perfect match (PM) probes which may overlap or not and which target the same gene • There are also mismatch (MM) probes which are supposed to serve as a control, but do so rather badly • Most of us ignore the MM probes EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  8. Expression Indices • A key issue with Affymetrix chips is how to summarize the multiple data values on a chip for each probe set (aka gene). • There have been a large number of suggested methods. • Generally, the worst ones are those from Affy, by a long way; worse means less able to detect real differences EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  9. Usable Methods • Li and Wong’s dCHIP and follow on work is demonstrably better than MAS 4.0 and MAS 5.0, but not as good as RMA and GLA • The RMA method of Irizarry et al. is available in Bioconductor. • The GLA method (Durbin, Rocke, Zhou) is also available in Bioconductor EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  12. Reading Affy Data into R • The CEL files contain the data from an array. We will look at data from an older type of array, the U95A which contains 12,625 probe sets and 409,600 probes. • The CDF file contains information relating probe pair sets to locations on the array. These are built into the affy package for standard types. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  13. Example Data Set • Data from Robert Rice’s lab on twelve keratinocyte cell lines, at six different stages. • Affymetrix HG U95A GeneChips. • For each “gene”, we will run a one-way ANOVA with two observations per cell. • For this illustration, we will use RMA. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  14. Files for the Analysis • .CDF file has U95A chip definition (which probe is where on the chip). Built in. • .CEL files contain the raw data after pixel level analysis, one number for each spot. Files are called LN0A.CEL, LN0B.CEL…LN5B.CEL and are on the web site. • 409,600 probe values in 12,625 probe sets. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  15. The ReadAffy function • ReadAffy() function reads all of the CEL files in the current working directory into an object of class AffyBatch, which is itself an object of class ExpressionSet • ReadAffy(widget=T) does so in a GUI that allows entry of other characteristics of the dataset • You can also specify filenames, phenotype or experimental data, and MIAME information EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  17. The ExpressionSet class • An object of class ExpressionSethas several slots the most important of which is an assayData object, containing one or more matrices. The best way to extract parts of this is using appropriate methods. • exprs() extracts an expression matrix • featureNames() extracts the names of the probe sets. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  18. Expression Indices • The 409,600 rows of the expression matrix in the AffyBatch object Data each correspond to a probe (25-mer) • Ordinarily to use this we need to combine the probe level data for each probe set into a single expression number • This has conceptually several steps EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  19. Steps in Expression Index Construction • Background correction is the process of adjusting the signals so that the zero point is similar on all parts of all arrays. • We like to manage this so that zero signal after background correction corresponds approximately to zero amount of the mRNA species that is the target of the probe set. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  20. Data transformation is the process of changing the scale of the data so that it is more comparable from high to low. • Common transformations are the logarithm and generalized logarithm • Normalization is the process of adjusting for systematic differences from one array to another. • Normalization may be done before or after transformation, and before or after probe set summarization. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  21. One may use only the perfect match (PM) probes, or may subtract or otherwise use the mismatch (MM) probes • There are many ways to summarize 20 PM probes and 20 MM probes on 10 arrays (total of 200 numbers) into 10 expression index numbers EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  28. Probe Sets not Genes • It is unavoidable to refer to a probe set as measuring a “gene”, but nevertheless it can be deceptive • The annotation of a probe set may be based on homology with a gene of possibly known function in a different organism • Only a relatively few probe sets correspond to genes with known function and known structure in the organism being studied EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  29. Exercise • Download the ten arrays from the web site • Load the arrays into R using Read.Affy and construct the RMA expression indices EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data
