  1. Biorange Meeting 2007-04-03 PhyloPatphylogenetic pattern analysisof eukaryotic genes&Immunophyleits application on theevolution of the immune systemTim Hulsen

  2. Introduction (1) • Phylogenetic patterns show presence/absence of genes over a certain set of species: e.g. for 10 species: 0011101011 • Very useful for all kinds of evolutionary analyses: • Origin of certain genes • Deletion of certain genes • Clustering of genes with similar patterns: likely to have similar function / be in same pathway

  3. Introduction (2) • Earlier phylogenetic pattern initiatives: • Phylogenetic Pattern Search (PPS), incorporated into COG (Natale et al., 2000) • Extended Phylogenetic Patterns Search (EPPS) (Reichard & Kaufmann, 2003) • Incorporated into OrthoMCL-DB (Chen et al., 2006) • All applied on proteins, not on genes! •  PhyloPat: phylogenetic pattern analysis of eukaryotic genes

  4. Method • Genes: easier to check for lineage-specific expansions (no alternative transcripts or splice forms); less redundant • Originally performed on Ensembl (EnsMart) database v40: 21 fully available genomes (i.e. no Pre! versions or low coverage genomes): S. cer. to H. sap. • Make use of accurate Ensembl orthology pipeline (combination of BLAST,SW,MUSCLE and PHYML) • Single linkage cluster algorithm: create orthologous groups containing ALL genes in Ensembl

  5. Results • 446,825 genes were clustered into 147,922 groups, using 3,164,088 orthologies from 21 species • Species ordered from ‘low’ ( ) to ‘high’ ( ), i.e. approximate distance to human : • Can be queried in several ways • Output in HTML, Excel or plain text format

  6. Web interface http://www.cmbi.ru.nl/phylopat

  7. Pattern/ID Search • Binary string: 0=absent, 1=present, *=absent/present e.g. ‘00000********11111111’:  must be absent in non-chordata , must be present in all mammals • MySQL regular expression: e.g. ‘^0*1{10}0*$’  gives all genes that occur only in ten subsequent species • Input list of Ensembl/EMBL IDs (PhyloPat contains EMBL to Ensembl mapping)

  8. Output

  9. Phylogenetic Tree

  10. Oligo-/Polypresent Genes • Oligopresent: present in only one/two species (oligo=few), e.g. ‘000000010000000000100’ • These two species should be highly related • C. sav C. int 1737 div. 100 Mya (Boffelli et al., 2004) • T. nig T. rub 1572 div. 85 Mya (Yakanoue et al., 2006) • A. gam A. Aeg 1058 div. 140 Mya (Service, 1993) • P. tro H. sap 887 div . 6 Mya (Glazko & Nei, 2003) • R. nor M. Mus 713 div. 20 Mya (Springer et al., 2003) • Polypresent: present in all species, except for one/two (poly=many), e.g. ‘111110111110111111111’ • These two species should be related too; similar analysis possible

  11. Omnipresent genes • Omnipresent: present in all 21 species (omni=all): ‘111111111111111111111’ • Currently 1001 omnipresent groups • Tend to have very general/important functions, mostly involved in transcription/translation

  12. FatiGO analysis • FatiGO: connection with GO terms, KEGG pathways, InterPro domains, etc. (El-Shahrour et al., 2004) • Analysis of all human genes in output by just one mouse click • e.g. omnipresent genes:

  13. Other possibilities • Anti-correlating patterns: e.g. ‘001111100011000000000’ and ‘110000011100111111111’  could be completely different, or very similar (analogous)! • Easy homology-inferred functional annotation (using information from other genes in the same lineage)

  14. Case study: Hox genes (1) • Hox genes determine where limbs and other body segments will grow in a developing embryo • Should exist mostly in vertebrates • Expansion in teleost fish species ( , 8-11); seven Hox clusters instead of the mammalian four • Search Ensembl database for human genes with term ‘hox’ in annotation • 44 genes found -> enter in PhyloPat -> 32 groups found (PP######)

  17. Conclusions • PhyloPat: quick and easy tool for phylogenetic pattern search on complete Ensembl database • Also usable for study of lineage-specific expansions of genes • Updated immediately with each new Ensembl version: • v41; 5 new species: • v42; 1 new species: • v43: 4 new species: + extra option: gene neighborhood

  18. Gene neighborhood Conservation of gene order = functionally related Equal color = belonging to same orthologous group

  19. Where to find PhyloPat • Web interface: http://www.cmbi.ru.nl/phylopat (accessible through www.cmbi.ru.nl and www.nbic.nl) • Publication: Hulsen T., Groenen P.M.A., de Vlieg J. BMC Bioinformatics 2006, 7: 398 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/7/398 • Powered by Ensembl: http://www.ensembl.org/info/about/ensembl_powered.html

  20. Chicken-human immunogenomics project (part of Biorange SP3.2.2) In collaboration with Martien Groenen, Hinri Kerstens (Animal Sciences Group, Wageningen UR) • Goals: • study evolution of genes/proteins involved in immune system, from chicken to human • check for expansions and deletions in families • zoom in to interesting families

  21. Proteins -> Genes • Earlier initiatives: based on proteins (Protein World, IPI, ParAlign, MCL) • Disadvantages: • large scale computations needed for orthology determination • Difficult to study lineage-specific expansions because of alternative transcripts, isoforms • Difficult to connect to WUR synteny data • --> Genes: connect to PhyloPat tool

  22. PhyloPat (dis)advantages • Advantages: • Usage of accurate orthology determination of Ensembl (BLAST/SW, MUSCLE, PHYML), single linkage clustering by ourselves) • No alternative transcripts, isoforms • Easy to connect to WUR synteny data • 26 species, from S.cer. to H.sap. • Disadvantage: • Genome information sometimes incomplete (but Pre-versions and low coverage genomes are not included)

  23. Immunophyle • Application to immune system: parse through PhyloPat set using IRIS database • Take all HUGO IDs from IRIS database, input in PhyloPat (v41)-> 585 immunologic lineages containing 18,933 genes from 26 species • Divided into immunologic 22 categories from IRIS database (adaptive immunity, innate immunity, inflammation, chemotaxis, etc. • Connected to GO, InterPro, KEGG, etc. by FatiGO

  24. Immunophyle • http://www.cmbi.ru.nl/immunophyle

  25. Immunologic categories

  26. Categories & species

  27. Largest expansion(s) for each species

  28. Interleukin evolution: receptors & ligands

  29. Example pathway: Toll-like receptors GeneGo MetaCore, canonical pathway  Interspecies differences can possibly be explained by looking at number of orthologs for each gene in the pathway

  30. Example pathway: Toll-like receptors Check ImmunoPhyle for each gene involved in the TLR pathway: Green: ‘first’ occurrence Red: deletion

  31. Current/future directions • Differences in immune system between model organism and man cannot be explained only by looking at numbers of orthologs  connect to literature, expression data, protein interaction data, structural data • Zoom in to families with help of immunologists
