  1. Gene Expression Arrays EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  2. Basic Design of Expression Arrays • For each gene that is a target for the array, we have a known DNA sequence. • mRNA is reverse transcribed to DNA, and if a complementary sequence is on the on a chip, the DNA will be more likely to stick • The DNA is labeled with a dye that will fluoresce and generate a signal that is monotonic in the amount in the sample EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  4. Affymetrix GeneChips use multiple 25-mers • For each gene, one or more sets of 8-20 distinct probes • May overlap • May cover more than one exon • Affymetrix chips also use mismatch (MM) probes that have the same sequence as perfect match probes except for the middle base which is changed to inhibitbinding. • This is supposed to act as a control, but often instead binds to another mRNA species, so many analysts do not use them EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  5. Probe Design • A good probe sequence should match the chosen gene or exon from a gene and should not match any other gene in the genome. • Melting temperature depends on the GC content and should be similar on all probes on an array since the hybridization must be conducted at a single temperature. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  6. The affinity of a given piece of DNA for the probe sequence can depend on many things, including secondary and tertiary structure as well as GC content. • This means that the relationship between the concentration of the RNA species in the original sample and the brightness of the spot on the array can be very different for different probes for the same gene. • Thus only comparisons of intensity within the same probe across arrays makes sense. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  7. Affymetrix GeneChips • For each probe set, there are 8-20 perfect match (PM) probes which may overlap or not and which target the same gene • There are also mismatch (MM) probes which are supposed to serve as a control, but do so rather badly • Most of us ignore the MM probes EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  8. Expression Indices • A key issue with Affymetrix chips is how to summarize the multiple data values on a chip for each probe set (aka gene). • There have been a large number of suggested methods. • Generally, the worst ones are those from Affy, by a long way; worse means less able to detect real differences EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  9. Usable Methods • Li and Wong’s dCHIP and follow on work is demonstrably better than MAS 4.0 and MAS 5.0, but not as good as RMA and GLA • ArrayAssist can use dCHIP, RMA, gcRMA, and others. • The GLA method (Durbin, Rocke, Zhou) can be imported into ArrayAssist. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  10. Steps in Expression Index Construction • Background correction is the process of adjusting the signals so that the zero point is similar on all parts of all arrays. • We like to manage this so that zero signal after background correction corresponds approximately to zero amount of the mRNA species that is the target of the probe set. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  11. Data transformation is the process of changing the scale of the data so that it is more comparable from high to low. • Common transformations are the logarithm and generalized logarithm • Normalization is the process of adjusting for systematic differences from one array to another. • Normalization may be done before or after transformation, and before or after probe set summarization. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  12. One may use only the perfect match (PM) probes, or may subtract or otherwise use the mismatch (MM) probes • There are many ways to summarize 20 PM probes and 20 MM probes on 10 arrays (total of 200 numbers) into 10 expression index numbers EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  13. The RMA Method • Background correction that does not make 0 signal correspond to 0 amount • Quantile normalization makes the overall distribution of intensity values across probes the same on each array • Log2 transform • Median polish summary of PM probes EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  14. Analysis by means • Remove Row Means • Remove Column Means • Rows and Columns have mean 0 • Influence of an outlier spreads EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  15. Median Polish • Remove Row Medians • Remove Column Medians • Rows and Columns may not • have median 0 • Outliers contained • May have to be iterated EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  16. Example Probe Set • Using the Affy HG U133 Plus 2.0 GeneChip with 54675 probe sets, from 604258 PM probes. • Four chips derived from human IR exposed skin at 0, 1, 10, and 100 cGy • Probe set number 10067/54675 has Affy ID 200618_at • Gene is LASP1, LIM and SH3 protein 1, LIM protein subfamily, Src homology, actin binding.

  18. Mean Summarization of the Logs EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  19. The GLA Method • The Glog Average (GLA) method is simpler than the RMA method, though it can require estimation of a parameter • Background correction is intended to make a measured value of zero correspond to a zero quantity in the sample • Transformation uses the glog ~ ln for large values • Normalization via lowess • Summary is a simple average of PM probes EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  20. Probe Sets not Genes • It is unavoidable to refer to a probe set as measuring a “gene”, but nevertheless it can be deceptive • The annotation of a probe set may be based on homology with a gene of possibly known function in a different organism • Only a relatively few probe sets correspond to genes with known function and known structure in the organism being studied EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  21. Two-Color Arrays • Two-color arrays are designed to account for variability in slides and spots by using two samples on each slide, each labeled with a different dye. • If a spot is too large, for example, both signals will be too big, and the difference or ratio will eliminate that source of variability EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  22. Dyes • The most common dye sets are Cy3 (green) and Cy5 (red), which fluoresce at approximately 550 nm and 649 nm respectively (red light ~ 700 nm, green light ~ 550 nm) • The dyes are excited with lasers at 532 nm (Cy3 green) and 635 nm (Cy5 red) • The emissions are read via filters using a CCD device EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  26. File Format • A slide scanned with Axon GenePix produces a file with extension .gpr that contains the results:http://www.axon.com/gn_GenePix_File_Formats.html • This contains 29 rows of headers followed by 43 columns of data (in our example files) • For full analysis one may also need a .gal file that describes the layout of the arrays EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  30. Analysis Choices • Mean or median foreground intensity • Background corrected or not • Log transform (base 2, e, or 10) or glog transform • Log is compatible only with no background correction • Glog is best with background correction EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  33. Issues with Two-Color Arrays • Chips have different overall intensities, so normalization across chips is needed. • The overall intensity on the red channel may be greater or less than on the green channel, so normalization across dyes is needed. • The red/green difference is can be different at different intensity levels EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  34. Array normalization • Array normalization is meant to increase the precision of comparisons by adjusting for variations that cover entire arrays • Without normalization, the analysis would be valid, but possibly less sensitive • However, a poor normalization method will be worse than none at all. EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data

  35. Possible normalization methods • We can equalize the mean or median intensity by adding or multiplying a correction term • We can use different normalizations at different intensity levels (intensity-based normalization) for example by lowess or quantiles • We can normalize for other things such as print tips EPP 245 Statistical Analysis of Laboratory Data
