Differential expression (supervised analysis) Which genes are differentially expressed between the two groups? Genes Samples Control 8 Case (Treatment)
Fold change n n n 9 n-fold change q Arbitrarily selected fold change cut-offs q Usually ≥ 2 fold Pros q Intuitive q Simple and rapid Cons q Outlier observations can create an apparent difference q Many real biological difference can not pass the 2 -fold cutoff
Statistical analysis: hypothesis testing Genes Samples Control A statistical hypothesis is an assumption about a population parameter, e. g. group mean. 10 Case (treatment) Null hypothesis Alternative hypothesis

Correction for multiple testing: how? n Control the family-wise error rate (FWER), the probability that there is a single type I error in the entire set (family) of hypotheses tested. e. g. Standard Bonferroni Correction: uncorrected p value x no. of genes tested n Control the false discovery rate (FDR), the expected proportion of false positives among the number of rejected hypotheses. e. g. Benjamini and Hochberg correction. q Ranking all genes according to their p value q Picking a desired FDR level, q (e. g. 5%) q Starting from the top of the list, accept all genes with , where i is the number of genes accepted so far, and m is the total number of genes tested. p 0. 00003 0. 00004 0. 0003 0. 0008 0. 002 0. 01 0. 049 0. 23 0. 55 0. 92 14 Bonferroni 0. 0003 0. 0004 0. 003 0. 008 0. 02 0. 1 0. 49 1 1 1 Rank (i) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 q 0. 05 0. 05 (i/m)*q 0. 0050 0. 0100 0. 0150 0. 0200 0. 0250 0. 0300 0. 0350 0. 0400 0. 0450 0. 0500 significant? 1 1 1 0 0
Clustering (unsupervised analysis) n Clustering algorithms are methods to divide a set of n objects (genes or samples) into g groups so that within group similarities are larger than between group similarities n Unsupervised techniques that do not require sample annotation in the process n Identify candidate subgroups in complex data. e. g. identification of novel sub-types in cancer, identification of co-expressed genes Samples Genes Sample_1 Sample_2 Sample_3 Sample_4 Sample_5 15 TNNC 1 DKK 4 ZNF 185 CHST 3 FABP 3 MGST 1 DEFA 5 VIL 1 AKAP 12 HS 3 ST 1 …… 14. 82 10. 71 15. 20 13. 40 15. 87 12. 76 10. 63 11. 47 18. 26 10. 61 …… 14. 46 10. 37 14. 96 13. 18 15. 80 12. 80 10. 47 11. 69 18. 10 10. 67 …… 14. 76 11. 23 15. 07 13. 15 15. 85 12. 67 10. 54 11. 87 18. 50 10. 50 …… 11. 22 19. 74 12. 57 11. 18 13. 16 14. 92 15. 52 13. 94 15. 60 12. 44 …… 11. 55 19. 73 12. 37 10. 99 12. 99 15. 02 15. 52 14. 01 15. 69 12. 23 …… …… …… ……

Example #1 Clustered display of data from time course of serum stimulation of primary human fibroblasts. the sequence-verified named genes in these clusters contain multiple genes involved in (A) cholesterol biosynthesis, (B) the cell cycle, (C) the immediate–early response, (D) signaling and angiogenesis, and (E) wound healing and tissue remodeling. These clusters also contain named genes not involved in these processes and numerous uncharacterized genes. Eisen et al. Cluster analysis and display of genome-wide expression patterns. PNAS, 1998 21
