  • A Method to Infer Changed Activity of Metabolic Function from Transcript Profiles
    ModeScore: A Method to Infer Changed Activity of Metabolic Function from Transcript Profiles Andreas Hoppe and Hermann-Georg Holzhütter Charité University Medicine Berlin, Institute for Biochemistry, Computational Systems Biochemistry Group [email protected] Abstract Genome-wide transcript profiles are often the only available quantitative data for a particular perturbation of a cellular system and their interpretation with respect to the metabolism is a major challenge in systems biology, especially beyond on/off distinction of genes. We present a method that predicts activity changes of metabolic functions by scoring reference flux distributions based on relative transcript profiles, providing a ranked list of most regulated functions. Then, for each metabolic function, the involved genes are ranked upon how much they represent a specific regulation pattern. Compared with the naïve pathway-based approach, the reference modes can be chosen freely, and they represent full metabolic functions, thus, directly provide testable hypotheses for the metabolic study. In conclusion, the novel method provides promising functions for subsequent experimental elucidation together with outstanding associated genes, solely based on transcript profiles. 1998 ACM Subject Classification J.3 Life and Medical Sciences Keywords and phrases Metabolic network, expression profile, metabolic function Digital Object Identifier 10.4230/OASIcs.GCB.2012.1 1 Background The comprehensive study of the cell’s metabolism would include measuring metabolite concentrations, reaction fluxes, and enzyme activities on a large scale. Measuring fluxes is the most difficult part in this, for a recent assessment of techniques, see [31]. Although mass spectrometry allows to assess metabolite concentrations in a more comprehensive way, the larger the set of potential metabolites, the more difficult [8].

Bipartite network clustering problems aim to identify node groups with more edges between themselves and fewer edges to the rest of the network. The approaches for community detection in the bipartite network can roughly be classified into algorithmic and model-based methods. The algorithmic methods solve the problem either by greedy searches in a heuristic way or optimizing based on some criteria over all possible partitions. The model-based methods fit a generative model to the observed data and study the model in a statistically principled way. In this dissertation, we mainly focus on bipartite clustering under two scenarios: incorporation of node covariates and detection of mixed membership communities.

  • Bringing Data Exploration to Biologists
    BioBridge: Bringing Data Exploration to Biologists by Joseph R. Boyd A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology by May 2014 APPROVED: Professor Matthew O. Ward, Major Thesis Advisor Professor Samuel Politz, Thesis Reader Professor Elizabeth Ryder, Head of Department Abstract Since the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003, biologists have be- come exceptionally good at producing data. Indeed, biological data has experienced a sustained exponential growth rate, putting effective and thorough analysis be- yond the reach of many biologists. This thesis presents BioBridge, an interactive visualization tool developed to bring intuitive data exploration to biologists. Bio- Bridge is designed to work on omics style tabular data in general and thus has broad applicability. This work describes the design and evaluation of BioBridge's Entity View pri- mary visualization as well the accompanying user interface. The Entity View vi- sualization arranges glyphs representing biological entities (e.g. genes, proteins, metabolites) along with related text mining results to provide biological context. Throughout development the goal has been to maximize accessibility and usability for biologists who are not computationally inclined. Evaluations were done with three informal case studies, one of a metabolome dataset and two of microarray datasets. BioBridge is a proof of concept that there is an underexploited niche in the data analysis ecosystem for tools that prioritize accessibility and usability. The use case studies, while anecdotal, are very encouraging. These studies indicate that BioBridge is well suited for the task of data exploration.
