Our research focuses on developing mathematical, statistical, and computational methodologies to analyze novel biological and technological experiments. By employing high-density microarrays for RNA transcription and protein-DNA interactions, we aim to elucidate regulatory networks pertinent to heart development and transcriptional fundamentals in yeast. Tools such as high-throughput RNAi assays and Bioconductor facilitate the identification of differentially expressed genes, fostering a deeper understanding of disease-relevant genetic interaction networks.

Transcription de la présentation
  1. Develop mathematical, statistical, and computational methods to analyse biologically or technologically novel experiments in order to understand disease-relevant regulatory and genetic interaction networks

  2. What we do High-density marrays for RNA transcription and protein-DNA binding: Regulatory networks in heart development Jörn Tödling (with Silke Sperling, MPI Molecular Genetics) Fundamentals of transcription and genetics in yeast Matt Ritchie (with Lars Steinmetz, EMBL)  High-throughput RNAi assays, high-content automated microscopy, genetic interaction networks Oleg Sklyar, Ligia Bras, Thomas Horn (with Michael Boutros, DKFZ, Robert Gentleman, FHCRC Seattle, Amy Kiger, UCSD)  Bioconductor

  3. Finding differentially expressed genes with marrays

  4. log-ratio which genes are differentially transcribed? same-same tumor-normal

  5. Statistics 101: biasaccuracy  precision variance

  6. Basic dogma of data analysis: Can always increase sensitivity on the cost of specificity, or vice versa, the art is to find the best trade-off. X X X X X X X X X

  7. 3000 3000 x3 ? 1500 200 1000 0 ? x1.5 A A B B C C But what if the gene is “off” (below detection limit) in one condition? ratios and fold changes Fold changes are useful to describe continuous changes in expression

  8. ratios and fold changes The idea of the log-ratio (base 2) 0: no change +1: up by factor of 21 = 2 +2: up by factor of 22 = 4 -1: down by factor of 2-1 = 1/2 -2: down by factor of 2-2 = ¼ A unit for measuring changes in expression: assumes that a change from 1000 to 2000 units has a similar biological meaning to one from 5000 to 10000. What about a change from 0 to 500? - conceptually - noise, measurement precision

  9. ratio compression Yue et al., (Incyte Genomics) NAR (2001) 29 e41

  10. Systematic Stochastic o similar effect on many measurements o corrections can be estimated from data o too random to be ex-plicitely accounted for o remain as “noise” Calibration Error model Sources of variation amount of RNA in the biopsy efficiencies of -RNA extraction -reverse transcription -labeling -fluorescent detection probe purity and length distribution spotting efficiency, spot size cross-/unspecific hybridization stray signal

  11. bi per-sample normalization factor bk sequence-wise probe efficiency hik ~ N(0,s22) “multiplicative noise” ai per-sample offset eik ~ N(0, bi2s12) “additive noise” modeling ansatz measured intensity = offset + gain  true abundance

  12. “multiplicative” noise “additive” noise  The two-component model raw scale log scale B. Durbin, D. Rocke, JCB 2001

  13. variance stabilizing transformations Xu a family of random variables with EXu=u, VarXu=v(u). Define var f(Xu ) independent of u derivation: linear approximation

  14. variance stabilizing transformations f(x) x

  15. the “glog” transformation - - - f(x) = log(x) ———hs(x) = asinh(x/s) P. Munson, 2001 D. Rocke & B. Durbin, ISMB 2002

  16. generalized log-ratio difference log-ratio variance: constant part proportional part glog raw scale log glog

  17. “usual” log-ratio 'glog' (generalized log-ratio) c1, c2are experiment specific parameters (~level of background noise)

  18.  Variance Bias Trade-Off Estimated log-fold-change log glog Signal intensity

  19.  Variance-bias trade-off and shrinkage estimators Shrinkage estimators: pay a small price in bias for a large decrease of variance, so overall the mean-squared-error (MSE) is reduced. Particularly useful if you have few replicates. Generalized log-ratio: = a shrinkage estimator for fold change There are many possible choices, one is stabilization of variance: + interpretabality even in cases where gene is off in some conditions + can subsequently use standard statistical methods (hypothesis testing, ANOVA, clustering, classification…) with less worries about uneven variances

  20. evaluation: a benchmark for Affymetrix genechip expression measures o Data: Spike-in series: from Affymetrix 59 x HGU95A, 16 genes, 14 concentrations, complex background Dilution series: from GeneLogic 60 x HGU95Av2, liver & CNS cRNA in different proportions and amounts o Benchmark: 15 quality measures regarding -reproducibility -sensitivity -specificity Put together by Rafael Irizarry (Johns Hopkins) http://affycomp.biostat.jhsph.edu

  21. good affycomp results (28 Sep 2003) bad

  22.  ROC curves

  23. Availability oimplementation in R oopen source package vsn on www.bioconductor.org othe next step: sequence-specific norma-lization (till here, just array-specific) oideas of shrinkage and variance stabilization are now used in mainstream preprocessing programs for Affymetrix data (PLIER, GCRMA)
