Web Tools for Rice Transcriptome Analyses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Gene expression databases provide profiling data for the expression of thousands of genes to researchers worldwide. Oligonucleotide
microarray technology is a useful tool that has been employed to produce gene expression profiles in most species. In rice,
there are five genome-wide DNA microarray platforms: NSF 45K, BGI/Yale 60K, Affymetrix, Agilent Rice 44K, and NimbleGen 390K.
Presently, more than 1,700 hybridizations of microarray gene expression data are available from public microarray depositing
databases such as NCBI gene expression omnibus and Arrayexpress at EBI. More processing or reformatting of public gene expression
data is required for further applications or analyses. Web-based databases for expression meta-analyses are useful for guiding
researchers in designing relevant research schemes. In this review, we summarize various databases for expression meta-analyses
of rice genes and web tools for further applications, such as the development of co-expression network or functional gene
network. 相似文献

Background
Many researchers are concerned with the comparability and reliability of microarray gene expression data. Recent completion of the MicroArray Quality Control (MAQC) project provides a unique opportunity to assess reproducibility across multiple sites and the comparability across multiple platforms. The MAQC analysis presented for the conclusion of inter- and intra-platform comparability/reproducibility of microarray gene expression measurements is inadequate. We evaluate the reproducibility/comparability of the MAQC data for 12901 common genes in four titration samples generated from five high-density one-color microarray platforms and the TaqMan technology. We discuss some of the problems with the use of correlation coefficient as metric to evaluate the inter- and intra-platform reproducibility and the percent of overlapping genes (POG) as a measure for evaluation of a gene selection procedure by MAQC. 相似文献5.

Exploring the functional landscape of gene expression: directed search of large microarray compendia 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Hibbs MA Hess DC Myers CL Huttenhower C Li K Troyanskaya OG 《Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)》2007,23(20):2692-2699
MOTIVATION: The increasing availability of gene expression microarray technology has resulted in the publication of thousands of microarray gene expression datasets investigating various biological conditions. This vast repository is still underutilized due to the lack of methods for fast, accurate exploration of the entire compendium. RESULTS: We have collected Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene expression microarray data containing roughly 2400 experimental conditions. We analyzed the functional coverage of this collection and we designed a context-sensitive search algorithm for rapid exploration of the compendium. A researcher using our system provides a small set of query genes to establish a biological search context; based on this query, we weight each dataset's relevance to the context, and within these weighted datasets we identify additional genes that are co-expressed with the query set. Our method exhibits an average increase in accuracy of 273% compared to previous mega-clustering approaches when recapitulating known biology. Further, we find that our search paradigm identifies novel biological predictions that can be verified through further experimentation. Our methodology provides the ability for biological researchers to explore the totality of existing microarray data in a manner useful for drawing conclusions and formulating hypotheses, which we believe is invaluable for the research community. AVAILABILITY: Our query-driven search engine, called SPELL, is available at http://function.princeton.edu/SPELL. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Several additional data files, figures and discussions are available at http://function.princeton.edu/SPELL/supplement. 相似文献

Modern microarray technology is capable of providing data about the expression of thousands of genes, and even of whole genomes. An important question is how this technology can be used most effectively to unravel the workings of cellular machinery. Here, we propose a method to infer genetic networks on the basis of data from appropriately designed microarray experiments. In addition to identifying the genes that affect a specific other gene directly, this method also estimates the strength of such effects. We will discuss both the experimental setup and the theoretical background. 相似文献

Methods for assessing reproducibility of clustering patterns observed in analyses of microarray data 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

MOTIVATION: Recent technological advances such as cDNA microarray technology have made it possible to simultaneously interrogate thousands of genes in a biological specimen. A cDNA microarray experiment produces a gene expression 'profile'. Often interest lies in discovering novel subgroupings, or 'clusters', of specimens based on their profiles, for example identification of new tumor taxonomies. Cluster analysis techniques such as hierarchical clustering and self-organizing maps have frequently been used for investigating structure in microarray data. However, clustering algorithms always detect clusters, even on random data, and it is easy to misinterpret the results without some objective measure of the reproducibility of the clusters. RESULTS: We present statistical methods for testing for overall clustering of gene expression profiles, and we define easily interpretable measures of cluster-specific reproducibility that facilitate understanding of the clustering structure. We apply these methods to elucidate structure in cDNA microarray gene expression profiles obtained on melanoma tumors and on prostate specimens. 相似文献

The advent of next generation sequencing technologies (NGS) has expanded the area of genomic research, offering high coverage and increased sensitivity over older microarray platforms. Although the current cost of next generation sequencing is still exceeding that of microarray approaches, the rapid advances in NGS will likely make it the platform of choice for future research in differential gene expression. Connectivity mapping is a procedure for examining the connections among diseases, genes and drugs by differential gene expression initially based on microarray technology, with which a large collection of compound-induced reference gene expression profiles have been accumulated. In this work, we aim to test the feasibility of incorporating NGS RNA-Seq data into the current connectivity mapping framework by utilizing the microarray based reference profiles and the construction of a differentially expressed gene signature from a NGS dataset. This would allow for the establishment of connections between the NGS gene signature and those microarray reference profiles, alleviating the associated incurring cost of re-creating drug profiles with NGS technology. We examined the connectivity mapping approach on a publicly available NGS dataset with androgen stimulation of LNCaP cells in order to extract candidate compounds that could inhibit the proliferative phenotype of LNCaP cells and to elucidate their potential in a laboratory setting. In addition, we also analyzed an independent microarray dataset of similar experimental settings. We found a high level of concordance between the top compounds identified using the gene signatures from the two datasets. The nicotine derivative cotinine was returned as the top candidate among the overlapping compounds with potential to suppress this proliferative phenotype. Subsequent lab experiments validated this connectivity mapping hit, showing that cotinine inhibits cell proliferation in an androgen dependent manner. Thus the results in this study suggest a promising prospect of integrating NGS data with connectivity mapping. 相似文献

Microarray technology has become an important tool for studying large-scale gene expression for a diversity of biological applications. However, there are a number of experimental settings for which commercial arrays are either unsuitable or unavailable despite the existence of sequence information. With the increasing availability of custom array manufacturing services, it is now feasible to design high-density arrays for any organism having sequence data. However, there have been relatively few reports discussing gene selection, an important first step in array design. Here we propose an in silico strategy for custom microarray gene selection that is applicable to a wide range of organisms, based on utilizing public domain microarray information to interrogate existing sequence data and to identify a set of homologous genes in any organism of interest. We demonstrate the utility of this approach by applying it to the selection of candidate genes for a custom Xenopus laevis microarray. A significant finding of this study is that 3%-4% of Xenopus expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are in an orientation contrary to that indicated in the public database entry (http://mssaha.people.wm.edu/suppMSS.html). 相似文献

Large-scale parallel measurement of whole-genome RNA expression is now possible with high-density arrays of cDNA or oligonucleotides. Using this technology efficiently will require the integration of other sources of biological information, such as gene identity, biomedical literature and biochemical pathway for a given gene. Such integration is essential to understand the cellular program of gene expression and the molecular physiology of an organism. Advances in microarray technology, and the expected rapid rise in microarray data will lead to new insight into fundamental biological problems such as the prediction of gene function from expression profiles and the identification of potential drug targets from biologically active compounds. 相似文献
