GO annotations

Gene Ontology

Gene Ontology (GO) is a collection of controlled vocabularies describing the biology of a gene product in any organism

There are 3 independent sets of vocabularies, or ontologies:

• Molecular Function (MF)– e.g. ”DNA binding” and ”catalytic activity”

• Cellular Component (CC)– e.g. ”organelle membrane” and ”cytoskeleton”

• Biological Process (BP)– e.g. ”DNA replication” and ”response to stimulus”

KEGG pathways

• KEGG PATHWAYS:– collection of manually drawn pathway maps representing our

knowledge on the molecular interaction and reaction networks, for a large selection of organisms

• 1. Metabolism– Carbohydrate, Energy, Lipid, Nucleotide, Amino acid, Other

amino acid, Glycan, PK/NRP, Cofactor/vitamin, Secondary metabolite, Xenobiotics

• 2. Genetic Information Processing• 3. Environmental Information Processing • 4. Cellular Processes• 5. Human Diseases • 6. Drug Development

Cluster analysis and GO

Analysis example:

• Partitioning clustering of genes into e.g. 10 clusters based on expression profiles

• Assignment of GO terms to genes in clusters

• Looking for GO terms overrepresented in clusters

Hypergeometric test

• The hypergeometric distribution arises from sampling from a fixed population.

10 balls

• We want to calculate the probability for drawing 7 or more white balls out of 10 balls given the distribution of balls in the urn
