Protein network analysis • Network motifs • Network clusters / modules • Co-clustering networks & expression • Network comparison(species, conditions) • Integration of genetic & physical nets • Network visualization
Network Motifs (Milo, Alonet al.) • Motifs are “patterns of interconnections occurring in complex networks.” • That is, connected subgraphs of a particular isomorphic topology • The approach queries the network for small motifs (e.g., of < 5 nodes) that occur much more frequently than would be expected in random networks • Significant motifs have been found in a variety of biological networks and, for instance, correspond to feed-forward and feed-back loops that are well known in circuit design and other engineering fields. • Pioneered by Uri Alon and colleagues
Motif searches in 3 different contexts How many motifs (connected subgraph topologies) exist involving three nodes? If the graph is undirected? If the graph is directed?
All 3-node directed subgraphs What is the frequency of each in the network?
Outline of the Approach • Search network to identify all possible n-node connected subgraphs (here n=3 or 4) • Get # occurrences of each subgraph type • The significance for each type is determined using permutation testing, in which the above process is repeated for many randomized networks (preserving node degrees– why?) • Use random distributions to compute a p-value for each subgraph type. The “network motifs” are subgraphs with p < 0.001
Schematic view of network motif detection Networks are randomized preserving node degree
Concentration of feedforward motif: (Num. appearances of motif divided byall 3 node connected subgraphs) Mean+/-SD of 400 subnetworks
Interesting questions • Which networks have motifs in common? • Which networks have completely distinct motifs versus the others? • Does this tell us anything about the design constraints on each network? • E.g., the feedforward loop may function to activate output only if the input signal is persistent (i.e., reject noisy or transient signals) and to allow rapid deactivation when the input turns off • E.g., food webs evolve to allow flow of energy from top to bottom (?!**!???), whereas transcriptional networks evolve to process information
Identifying modules in the network • Rives/Galitski PNAS paper 2003 • Define distance between each pair of proteins in the interaction network • E.g., d = shortest path length • To compute shortest path length, use Dijkstra’s algorithm • Cluster w/ pairwise node similarity = 1/d2

Scoring over multiple perturbations/conditions Perturbations /conditions
Searching for “active” pathways in a large network • Score subnetworks according to their overall amount of activity • Finding the highest scoring subnetworks is NP hard, so we use heuristic search algs. to identify a collection of high-scoring subnetworks (local optima) • Simulated annealing and/or greedy search starting from an initial subnetwork “seed” • During the search we must also worry about issues such as local topology and whether a subnetwork’s score is higher than would be expected at random

Dataset distribution Gene set 2 distribution ::: Introduction. ::: K-S test Gene Set Enrichment Analysis - GSEA - The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test is used to determine whether two underlying one-dimensional probability distributions differ, or whether an underlying probability distribution differs from a hypothesized distribution, in either case based on finite samples. The one-sample KS test compares the empirical distribution function with the cumulative distribution functionspecified by the null hypothesis. The main applications are testing goodness of fit with the normal and uniform distributions. The two-sample KS test is one of the most useful and general nonparametric methods for comparing two samples, as it is sensitive to differences in both location and shape of the empirical cumulative distribution functions of the two samples.
