compCorrGraph()
A function to compute a correlation based graph from Gene Expression Data
Description
Given a set of gene expression data (an instance of the
ExpressionSet
class) this function computes a graph based on
correlations between the probes.
Usage
compCorrGraph(eSet, k = 1, tau = 0.6)
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
eSet | An instance of the ExpressionSet class. |
k | The power to raise the correlations to. |
tau | The lower cutoff for absolute correlations. |
Details
Zhou et al. describe a method of computing a graph between probes (genes) based on estimated correlations between probes. This function implements some of their methods.
Pearson correlations between probes are computed and then these are
raised to the power k
. Any of the resulting estimates that are
less than tau
in absolute value are set to zero.
Value
An instance of the graph
class. With edges and edge weights
determined by applying the algorithm described previously.

exprMat <- matrix(runif(50 * 5), nrow=50)
genData <- new("ExpressionSet", exprs=exprMat)
corrG = compCorrGraph(genData)
compGdist()
A function to compute the distance between pairs of nodes in a graph.
Description
Given a graph, g
, and a set of nodes in the graph,
whNodes
, Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm is used to compute
the distance between all pairs of nodes in whNodes
.
Usage
compGdist(g, whNodes, verbose = FALSE)
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
g | An instance of the graph class. |
whNodes | A vector of lables of the nodes in g for which distances are to be computed. |
verbose | If TRUE then output reporting the progress will be reported. |
Details
This function can be quite slow, computation of the pairwise
distances is not especially fast and if whNodes
is long then
there are many of them to compute.
Value
A matrix containing the pairwise distances. It might be worth making
this an instance of the dist
class at some point.

hyperGTest()
Hypergeometric Tests for GO term association
Description
Given a GOHyperGParams
instance
containing a set of unique Entrez Gene Identifiers, a microarray
annotation data package name, and the GO ontology of interest, this
function will compute Hypergeomtric p-values for over or
under-representation of each GO term in the specified ontology among
the GO annotations for the interesting genes. The computations can
be done conditionally based on the structure of the GO graph.
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
p | A GOHyperGParams or OBOHyperGParams instance |
Details
When conditional(p) == TRUE
, the hyperGTest
function
uses the structure of the GO graph to estimate for each term whether
or not there is evidence beyond that which is provided by the term's
children to call the term in question statistically overrepresented.
The algorithm conditions on all child terms that are themselves
significant at the specified p-value, odds ratio, minimum or
maximum gene set size cutoff. Given a subgraph of
one of the three GO ontologies, or the ontology given in the
OBOHyperGParams
instance, the terms with no child categories
are tested first. Next the nodes whose children have already been
tested are tested. If any of a given node's children tested
significant, the appropriate conditioning is performed.
Value
A GOHyperGResult
or OBOHyperGResult
instance.

Description
A function to map from integer offsets in an array to the corresponding values of the row and column names. There is probably a better way but I didn't find it.
Usage
idx2dimnames(x, idx)
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
x | a matrix or data.frame . |
idx | An integer vector of offsets into the matrix (values between 1 and the length of the matrix. |
Value

makeGOGraph()
Construct a GO Graph
Description
The directed acyclic graph (DAG) based on finding the most specific terms for the supplied Entrez Gene IDs is constructed and returned. The constructuion is per GO ontology (there are three, MF, BP and CC) and once the most specific terms have been identified then all less specific terms are found (these are the parents of the terms) and then their parents and so on, until the root is encountered.
Usage
makeGOGraph(x, Ontology = "MF", removeRoot = TRUE, mapfun = NULL,
chip = NULL)
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
x | A vector of Entrez Gene IDs. |
Ontology | Which GO ontology to use (CC, BP, or MF). |
removeRoot | A logical value indicating whether the GO root node should be removed or not. |
mapfun | A function taking a character vector of Entrez Gene IDs as its only argument and returning a list of "GO lists" matching the structure of the lists in the GO maps of annotation data packages. The function should behave similarly to mget(x, eg2gomap, ifnotfound=NA) , that is, NA should be returned if a specified Entrez ID has no GO mapping. See details for the interaction of mapfun and chip . |
chip | The name of a DB-based annotation data package (the name will end in ".db"). This package will be used to generate an Entrez ID to GO ID mapping instead of mapfun . |
Details
For each supplied Entrez Gene identifier all the GO annotations (in the specified ontology) are found. The mapping is achieved in one of three ways:
If
mapfun
is provided, it will be used to perform the needed lookups. In this case,chip
will be ignored.If
chip
is provided andmapfun=NULL
, then the needed lookups will be done based on the Entrez to GO mappings encapsulated in the specified annotation data package. This is the recommended usage.If
mapfun
andchip
areNULL
or missing, then the function will attempt to load the GO package (the environment-based package, distinct from GO.db). This package contains a legacy environment mapping Entrez IDs to GO IDs. If the GO package is not available, an error will be raised. Omitting bothmapfun
andchip
is not recommended as it is not compatible with the DB-based annotation data packages.
The mappings are different for the different ontologies. Typically a GO indentifier is used only in one specific ontology.
The resulting structure is stored in a graph using the graph
package, again from Bioconductor.
Value
An object that inherits from the graph
class. The particular
implementation is not specified.

notConn()
Find genes that are not connected to the others.
Description
A function that takes as input a distance matrix and finds those
entries that are not connected to any others (ie. those with distance
Inf
.
Usage
notConn(dists)
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
dists | A distance matrix. |
Details
It is a very naive implementation. It presumes that not connected
entries are not connected to any other entries, and this might not be
true. Using the connComp
function from the graph
package or the RBGL
package might be a better approach.
Value
A vector of the names of the items that are not connected.

oneGOGraph()
Construct the GO graph given a set of leaves.
Description
Given one or more GO identifiers (which indicate the leaves in the graph) and a set of mappings to the less specific sets of nodes this function will construct the graph that includes that node and all children down to the root node for the ontology.
Usage
oneGOGraph(x, dataenv)
GOGraph(x, dataenv)
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
x | A character vector of GO identifiers. |
dataenv | An environment for finding the parents of that term. |
Details
For any set of GO identifiers (from a common ontology) we define the induced GO graph to be that graph, based on the DAG structure (child - parent) of the GO ontology of terms, which takes the most specific set of GO terms that apply (for that ontology) and then joins these to all less specific terms. These functions help construct such graphs.
Value
The induced GO graph (or NULL) for the given GO identifier.

probeSetSummary()
Summarize Probe Sets Associated with a hyperGTest Result
Description
Given the result of a hyperGTest
run (an instance of
GOHyperGResult
), this function lists all Probe Set IDs
associated with the selected Entrez IDs annotated at each
significant GO term in the test result.
Usage
probeSetSummary(result, pvalue, categorySize, sigProbesets, ids = "ENTREZID")
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
result | A GOHyperGResult instance. This is the output of the hyperGTest function when testing the GO category. |
pvalue | Optional p-value cutoff. Only results for GO terms with a p-value less than the specified value will be returned. If omitted, pvalueCutoff(result) is used. |
categorySize | Optional minimum size (number of annotations) for the GO terms. Only results for GO terms with categorySize or more annotations will be returned. If omitted, no category size criteria will be used. |
sigProbesets | Optional vector of probeset IDs. See details for more information. |
ids | Character. The type of IDs used in creating the GOHyperGResult object. Usually 'ENTREZID', but may be e.g., 'ACCNUM' if using A. thaliana chip. |
Details
Usually the goal of doing a Fisher's exact test on a set of significant probesets is to find pathways or cellular activities that are being perturbed in an experiment. After doing the test, one usually gets a list of significant GO terms, and the next logical step might be to determine which probesets contributed to the significance of a certain term.
Because the input for the Fisher's exact test consists of a vector of unique Entrez Gene IDs, and there may be multiple probesets that interrogate a particular transcript, the ouput for this function lists all of the probesets that map to each Entrez Gene ID, along with an indicator that shows which of the probesets were used as input.
The rationale for this is that one might not be able to assume a given probeset actually interrogates the intended transcript, so it might be useful to be able to check to see what other similar probesets are doing.
Because one of the first steps before running hyperGTest
is to
subset the input vectors of geneIds and universeGeneIds, any
information about probeset IDs that interrogate the same gene
transcript is lost. In order to recover this information, one can pass
a vector of probeset IDs that were considered significant. This vector
will then be used to indicate which of the probesets that map to a
given GO term were significant in the original analysis.
Value
A list
of data.frame
. Each element of the list
corresponds to one of the GO terms (the term is provides as the name
of the element). Each data.frame
has three columns:
the Entrez Gene ID ( EntrezID
), the probe set ID
( ProbeSetID
), and a 0/1 indicator of whether the probe set ID
was provided as part of the initial input ( selected
)
Note that this 0/1 indicator will only be correct if the 'geneId'
vector used to construct the GOHyperGParams
object was a named
vector (where the names are probeset IDs), or if a vector of
'sigProbesets' was passed to this function.

shortestPath()
Shortest Path Analysis
Description
The shortest path analysis was proposed by Zhou et. al. The basic computation is to find the shortest path in a supplied graph between two Entrez Gene IDs. Zhou et al claim that other genes annotated along that path are likely to have the same GO annotation as the two end points.
Usage
shortestPath(g, GOnode, mapfun=NULL, chip=NULL)
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
g | An instance of the graph class. |
GOnode | A length one character vector specifying the GO node of interest. |
mapfun | A function taking a character vector of GO IDs as its only argument and returning a list of character vectors of Enterz Gene IDs annotated at each corresponding GO ID. The function should behave similarly to mget(x, go2egmap, ifnotfound=NA) , that is, NA should be returned if a specified GO ID has no Entrez ID mappings. See details for the interaction of mapfun and chip . |
chip | The name of a DB-based annotation data package (the name will end in ".db"). This package will be used to generate an Entrez ID to GO ID mapping instead of mapfun . |
Details
The algorithm implemented here is quite simple. All Entrez Gene
identifiers that are annotated at the GO node of interest are
obtained. Those that are found as nodes in the graph are retained and
used for the computation. For every pair of nodes at the GO term the
shortest path between them is computed using sp.between
from
the RBGL package.
There is a presumption that the graph is undirected
. This
restriction could probably be lifted if there was some reason for it -
a patch would be gratefully accepted.
The mapping of GO node to Entrez ID is achieved in one of three ways:
If
mapfun
is provided, it will be used to perform the needed lookups. In this case,chip
will be ignored.If
chip
is provided andmapfun=NULL
, then the needed lookups will be done based on the GO to Entrez mappings encapsulated in the specified annotation data package. This is the recommended usage.If
mapfun
andchip
areNULL
or missing, then the function will attempt to load the GO package (the environment-based package, distinct from GO.db). This package contains a legacy environment mapping GO IDs to Entrez IDs. If the GO package is not available, an error will be raised. Omitting bothmapfun
andchip
is not recommended as it is not compatible with the DB-based annotation data packages.
Value
The return values is a list with the following components:

simLL()
Functions to compute similarities between GO graphs and also between Entrez Gene IDs based on their induced GO graphs.
Description
Both simUI
and simLP
compute a similarity measure
between two GO graphs. For simLL
, first the induced GO graph
for each of its arguments is found and then these are passed to one
of simUI
or simLP
.
Usage
simLL(ll1, ll2, Ontology = "MF", measure = "LP", dropCodes = NULL,
mapfun = NULL, chip = NULL)
simUI(g1, g2)
simLP(g1, g2)
Arguments
Argument | Description |
---|---|
ll1 | A Entrez Gene ID as a character vector. |
ll2 | A Entrez Gene ID as a character vector. |
Ontology | Which ontology to use ("MF", "BP", "CC"). |
measure | Which measure to use ("LP", "UI"). |
dropCodes | A set of evidence codes to be ignored in constructing the induced GO graphs. |
mapfun | A function taking a character vector of Entrez Gene IDs as its only argument and returning a list of "GO lists" matching the structure of the lists in the GO maps of annotation data packages. The function should behave similarly to mget(x, eg2gomap, , that is, NA should be returned if a specified Entrez ID has no GO mapping. See details for the interaction of mapfun and chip . |
chip | The name of a DB-based annotation data package (the name will end in ".db"). This package will be used to generate an Entrez ID to GO ID mapping instead of mapfun . |
g1 | An instance of the graph class. |
g2 | An instance of the graph class. |
Details
For each of ll1
and ll2
the set of most specific GO
terms within the ontology specified ( Ontology
) that are not
based on any excluded evidence code ( dropCodes
) are found. The
mapping is achieved in one of three ways:
If
mapfun
is provided, it will be used to perform the needed lookups. In this case,chip
will be ignored.If
chip
is provided andmapfun=NULL
, then the needed lookups will be done based on the Entrez to GO mappings encapsulated in the specified annotation data package. This is the recommended usage.If
mapfun
andchip
areNULL
or missing, then the function will attempt to load the GO package (the environment-based package, distinct from GO.db). This package contains a legacy environment mapping Entrez IDs to GO IDs. If the GO package is not available, an error will be raised. Omitting bothmapfun
andchip
is not recommended as it is not compatible with the DB-based annotation data packages.
Next, the induced GO graphs are computed.
Finally these graphs are passed to one of simUI
, (union
intersection), or simLP
(longest path). For simUI
the
distance is the size of the intersection of the node sets divided by
the size of the union of the node sets. Large values indicate more
similarity. These similarities are between 0 and 1.
For simLP
the length of the longest path in the intersection
graph of the two supplied graph. Again, large values indicate more
similarity. Similarities are between 0 and the maximum leaf depth of
the graph for the specified ontology.
Value
A list with:
If one of the supplied Gene IDs does not have any GO terms associated
with it, in the selected ontology and with the selected evidence codes
then NA
is returned.

is a function that takes an undirected graph as
input and removes all nodes of degree less than k
. This process
is iterated until there are no nodes left (an error is thrown) or all
nodes remaining have degree at least k
. The resultant subgraph
is returned. It is used here because to be in a triad all nodes must
have degree 2 or more.
triadCensus
makes use of the helper functions described above
and finds all triads in the graph.
Value
A list where each element is a triple indicating the members of the triad. Order is not important and all triads are reported in alphabetic order.
Note
See the graph package, RBGL and Rgraphviz for more details and alternatives.
