  4. Clustering and pathway analysis • Tools to help you interpret large datasets (e.g. microarray) • Clustering • Discover patterns in your data • Usually without prior knowledge (unsupervised) Find sets of genes that behave in a similar way • Pathway Analysis • Combine data with what we know about biology Find which and how biological processes are affected in your experiment

  5. Contents • Background on Clustering Methods • Background on Pathway Analysis • Data Analysis with PathVisio • WikiPathways

  6. Clustering • A cluster is a group that has homogeneity (internal cohesion) and separation (external isolation).

  7. Clustering microarray data • High dimensional >10,000 measurements from relatively small number of samples • Use clustering to find groups of similar profiles • You can cluster on both samples and genes Image from J. Pennings, RIVM, NL

  8. Quality control • As you have seen you can also use clustering for quality control Control group Hdh knockout group Zhang et al. BMC Neuroscience, 2008

  9. How to compare data points? ? ? • Calculate a similarity measure • Commonly used similarity measures are • Pearson and Spearman correlation coefficients • Euclidean distance

  10. Calculating Euclidean distance (I) • dpq is the distance between gene p and gene q • n is the number of samples • E.g. p1 is the measured expression of gene p, sample 1 a ya dab = ((xb – xa)2 + (yb – ya)2)1/2 yb b xa xb

  11. Calculating Euclidean distance (II) • Watch out for measures on different scales • E.g.: weight in kg, length in cm, age in years • Important to standardize scales first: This can be done by: • subtracting the mean • dividing by the estimate of the standard deviation (s)

  12. Pearson Distance • Based on Pearson correlation coefficient (1 - correlation) • Can capture inverse relations (for example, for genes that are inhibited)

  13. Cluster algorithms • There are different cluster algorithms • Make use of similarity measure • Hierarchical • K-means • SOM • … and many more variations

  14. Hierarchical clustering (I) • May be agglomerative … • building up the branches of a tree, beginning with the two most closely related objects • … or divisive • building the tree by finding the most dissimilar objects first • In each case, we end up with a clustering tree or dendrogramhaving branches and nodes.

  17. 1 12 Agglomerative and divisive clustering sometimes give conflicting results, as shown here 1 12

  18. Hierarchical clustering (II) • How to compute the closest related items? • For step 1, simply the two items with the highest similarity (or smallest distance) are grouped first. • For the following steps we need to compute the (dis)similarity between groups of items • To compute this, several methods are available • In single-linkage clustering, the (dis)similarity between two groups of items is that of their most similar (less dissimilar) pair.

  19. Hierarchical clustering methods (I) • There are many other criteria for defining clusters: • Single linkage • Complete linkage • Average linkage • Median linkage • Centroid linkage • Ward’s method • minimises variance single linkage complete linkage centroid linkage

  20. Hierarchical clustering methods (II) • These do not always give equivalentclustering patterns • Average linkage and Ward’s methodseem most stable • Single-linkage clustering may besusceptible to ‘chaining’ of closelyrelated items, obscuring reasonablecluster structure chaining in single linkage

  21. K-means clustering • Besides hierarchical methods many others are available • K-means clustering / Fuzzy K-means clustering • Choose number of clusters K • Take a random center for each cluster • Assign every item to the closest cluster • Recompute cluster centers (to be the average of all items it contains) • Re-assign items to the cluster of which the center is closest now • …and so on…until no change occurs any more • Advantage: easy method • Disadvantage: choice of K is arbitrarily – you still do not learn much about the relationships between the clusters (no dendrogram)

  22. Kohonen Self Organising Maps (SOM) • Start with a ‘grid’ of MxN cluster centers • Train this grid to fit the data at hand • Clusters are linked to each other, if one cluster moves, it’s neigbhours also move a bit • Advantage: indicates relations between the clusters • Disadvantages: M and N arbitrarily – results not easy to interpret Image from J. Pennings, RIVM, NL

  23. Clustering  can supportBiological interpretation Two-way clustering of genes (y-axis) and cell lines (x-axis) (Alizadeh et al., 2000)

  24. Free clustering software • TM4 MeVhttp://www.tm4.org/mev.html • Rhttp://www.r-project.org/ • Eisenhttp://rana.lbl.gov/EisenSoftware.htm • NCBI GEO also supports basic clustering:

  25. Biological Pathways

  26. Why Pathway Analysis? • Intuitive to biologists • Puts data in biological context • More intuitive way of looking at your data • More efficient than looking up gene-by-gene • Computational analysis • Overrepresentation analysis • Network analysis

  27. Why Pathway Analysis?

  28. Biological Context • Statistical results: • 1,300 genes are significantly regulated after treatment with X • Biological Meaning: • Is a certain biological pathway activated or deactivated? • Which genes in these pathway are significantly changed?

  29. Pathway Collection • Where to get pathways? • Online pathway databases • WikiPathways www.wikipathways.org • Reactome www.reactome.org • Many more ... http://pathguide.org

  30. Identifier Mapping Identifier Mapping Annotation: ENSG00000131828

  31. Identifier Mapping • Microarrays typically use internal ids: • Affymetrix: 205749_at • Agilent: A_14_P106416 • Illumina: ILMN_4380 • Pathways typically use gene/protein ids • Entrez Gene: 1543 • Ensembl: ENSG00000140465 • UniProt: P04637

  32. Identifier Mapping • 2 scenarios • Software will take care of it • e.g. PathVisio uses synonym databases • You will have to convert the ids yourself • DAVID: http://david.abcc.ncifcrf.gov • SOURCE: http://smd.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/source/sourceBatchSearch • BioMART: http://www.biomart.org • NetAffx: http://www.affymetrix.com

  33. Pathway Analysis Tools • PathVisio • BioRAG • MetaCore (GeneGO) • Pathway-Express • GenMAPP / MAPPFinder

  48. 3. Find „enriched“ pathways

  49. Statistics Unchanged gene Changed gene Question: • Does the small circle have a higher percentage of changed genes than the large circle? • Is this difference significant?

  50. Calculate Z-scores • The Z-score can be used as a measure for how much a subset of genes is different from the rest • r = changed genes in Pathway • n = total genes in Pathway • R = changed genes • N = total genes Other enrichment calculation methods Ackermann M et al., A general modular framework for gene set enrichment analysis, BMC bioinformatics, 2009
