HMM-based Gene Finders • GENMARK (Borodovsky & McIninch 1993) • GENIE (Kulp 1996) • GENSCAN (Burge 1997) • Big jump in accuracy of de novo gene finding • Currently, one of the best • HMM with duration modeling for Exon states • FGENESH (Solovyev 1997) • Currently one of the best • HMMgene (Krogh 1997) • VEIL (Henderson, Salzberg, & Fasman 1997)
Better way to do it: negative binomial • EasyGene: Prokaryotic gene-finder Larsen TS, Krogh A • Negative binomial with n = 3
GENSCAN’s hidden weapon • C+G content is correlated with: • Gene content (+) • Mean exon length (+) • Mean intron length (–) • These quantities affect parameters of model • Solution • Train parameters of model in four different C+G content ranges!

Results of GENSCAN • On the initial test dataset (Burset & Guigo) • 80% exact exon detection • 10% partial exons • 10% wrong exons • In general • HMMs have been best in de novo prediction • In practice they overpredict human genes by ~2x

Twinscan Algorithm • Align the two sequences (eg. from human and mouse) • Mark each human base as gap ( - ), mismatch ( : ), match ( | ) New “alphabet”: 4 x 3 = 12 letters • = { A-, A:, A|, C-, C:, C|, G-, G:, G|, U-, U:, U| } • Run Viterbi using emissions ek(b) where b { A-, A:, A|, …, T| } Emission distributions ek(b) estimated from real genes from human/mouse eI(x|) < eE(x|): matches favored in exons eI(x-) > eE(x-): gaps (and mismatches) favored in introns

Cells respond to environment Cell responds to environment—various external messages
Genome is fixed – Cells are dynamic • A genome is static • Every cell in our body has a copy of same genome • A cell is dynamic • Responds to external conditions • Most cells follow a cell cycle of division • Cells differentiate during development • Gene expression varies according to: • Cell type • Cell cycle • External conditions • Location slide credits: M. Kellis
Where gene regulation takes place • Opening of chromatin • Transcription • Translation • Protein stability • Protein modifications
Transcriptional Regulation • Efficient place to regulate: No energy wasted making intermediate products • However, slowest response time After a receptor notices a change: • Cascade message to nucleus • Open chromatin & bind transcription factors • Recruit RNA polymerase and transcribe • Splice mRNA and send to cytoplasm • Translate into protein
Transcription Factors Binding to DNA Transcription regulation: Certain transcription factors bind DNA Binding recognizes DNA substrings: Regulatory motifs
Promoter and Enhancers • Promoter necessary to start transcription • Enhancers can affect transcription from afar

DNA 1 DNA 2 Gene 1 Gene 2 Measure RNA 4 cDNA 4 RT Hybridize DNA 3 DNA 4 Gene 3 Gene 4 DNA 5 DNA 6 RNA 6 cDNA 6 Gene 5 Gene 6 What is a microarray • Measure the level of mRNA messages in a cell slide credits: M. Kellis
What is a microarray • A 2D array of DNA sequences from thousands of genes • Each spot has many copies of same gene • Measure number of hybridizations per spot Result: • Thousands of “experiments” – one per gene – in one go • Perform many microarrays for different conditions: • Time during cell cycle • Temperature • Nutrient level
Goal of Microarray Experiments • Measure level of gene expression across many different conditions: • Expression Matrix M: {genes}{conditions}: Mij = |genei| in conditionj • Group genes into coregulated sets • Observe cells under different conditions • Find genes with similar expression profiles • Potentially regulated by same TF slide credits: M. Kellis
Clustering vs. Classification • Clustering • Idea: Groups of genes that share similar function have similar expression patterns • Hierarchical clustering • k-means • Bayesian approaches • Projection techniques • Principal Component Analysis • Independent Component Analysis • Classification • Idea: A cell can be in one of several states • (Diseased vs. Healthy, Cancer X vs. Cancer Y vs. Normal) • Can we train an algorithm to use the gene expression patterns to determine which state a cell is in? • Support Vector Machines • Decision Trees • Neural Networks • K-Nearest Neighbors

c a b h e d f g Hierarchical clustering • Bottom-up algorithm: • Initialization: each point in a separate cluster • At each step: • Choose the pair of closest clusters • Merge • The exact behavior of the algorithm depends on how we define the distance CD(X,Y) between clusters X and Y • Avoids the problem of specifying the number of clusters slide credits: M.
