A simple demo of using HemI 2.0:
HemI 2.0 supports loading of files in 3 formats: Microsoft Excel workbook (97-2003, *.xls; 07-2019, *.xlsx), Comma-Separated Values (*.csv) and Text File (*.txt, tab split file). After generating the table, click on the row/column titles to change or add annotations.
To better meet the enormous demands for data analysis in heatmaps, we implemented 7 commonly-used methods for data clustering, including single, complete, average, weighted, centroid, median and ward linkage clustering methods. Also, we included 22 types of distance metrics, including Bray-Curtis, Canberra, Chebyshev, Manhattan, Correlation, Cosine, Dice, Euclidean (default), Hamming, Jaccard, Jensen-Shannon, Kulsinski, Mahalanobis, Matching, Minkowski, Rogers-Tanimoto, Russell-Rao, Standardized Euclidean, Sokal-Michener, Sokal-Sneath, Squared Euclidean, and Yule distance metrics.
single(y) | Perform single/min/nearest linkage on the condensed distance matrix y. |
complete(y) | Perform complete/max/farthest point linkage on a condensed distance matrix. |
average(y) | Perform average/UPGMA linkage on a condensed distance matrix. |
weighted(y) | Perform weighted/WPGMA linkage on the condensed distance matrix. |
centroid(y) | Perform centroid/UPGMC linkage. |
median(y) | Perform median/WPGMC linkage. |
ward(y) | Perform Ward’s linkage on a condensed distance matrix. |
1.For method ‘single’, an optimized algorithm based on minimum spanning tree is implemented. It has time complexity O(n2). For methods ‘complete’, ‘average’, ‘weighted’ and ‘ward’, an algorithm called nearest-neighbors chain is implemented. It also has a time complexity O(n2). For other methods, a naive algorithm is implemented with O(n3) time complexity. All algorithms use theO(n2) memory.
2.Methods ‘centroid’, ‘median’, and ‘ward’ are correctly defined only if Euclidean pairwise metric is used. If y is passed as a precomputed pairwise distance, then users should ensure that the distance is in fact Euclidean, otherwise the produced result will be incorrect.
The clustering function of HemI 2.0 is based on the scipy clustering package (scipy.cluster). You can choose different clustering methods and distance metrics, such as ‘weighted’ method and ‘euclidean pairwise’ distance metric. See scipy docs (https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.cluster.hierarchy.linkage.html) for more details about parameters.
For further data analysis, we also implemented an option of enrichment analysis for 12 model species, including Homo sapiens, Mus musculus, Rattus norvegicus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Drosophila melanogaster, Arabidopsis thaliana, Sus scrofa, Canis lupus familiaris, Bos taurus, Gallus gallus, Caenorhabditis elegans, and Danio rerio. For organism selection, we will recommend a most likely organism based on the UniProt IDs or gene symbols inputted by the user.
We compiled 15 types of functional annotations, including 4 sets of Gene Ontology (GO) annotations (All, biology processes, molecular functions, and cellular components), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways, Disease Ontology (DO) terms, and 9 sets of Hallmark Gene Sets taken from Molecular signatures database (MSigDB) (Positional Gene Sets, Curated Gene Sets, Regulatory Target Gene Sets, Computational Gene Sets, Ontology Gene Sets, Oncogenic Signature Gene Sets, Immunologic Signature Gene Sets, Cell Type Signature Gene Sets, and All Gene Sets mixed). For the enrichment analysis, the hypergeometric test was used to calculate an enrichment ratio (E-ratio) and a P value for each category of functional annotations. To intuitively visualize the enrichment results, we provided 5 idioms, including bubble chart, bar graph, coxcomb chart, pie chart and word cloud.
An ontology is a formal representation of a body of knowledge within a given domain. Ontologies usually consist of a set of classes (or terms or concepts) with relations that operate between them. The Gene Ontology (GO) describes our knowledge of the biological domain with respect to three aspects:
Molecular Function | Molecular-level activities performed by gene products. Molecular function terms describe activities that occur at the molecular level, such as “catalysis” or “transport”. GO molecular function terms represent activities rather than the entities (molecules or complexes) that perform the actions, and do not specify where, when, or in what context the action takes place. Molecular functions generally correspond to activities that can be performed by individual gene products (i.e. a protein or RNA), but some activities are performed by molecular complexes composed of multiple gene products. Examples of broad functional terms are catalytic activity and transporter activity; examples of narrower functional terms are adenylate cyclase activity or Toll-like receptor binding. To avoid confusion between gene product names and their molecular functions, GO molecular functions are often appended with the word “activity” (a protein kinase would have the GO molecular function protein kinase activity). |
Cellular Component | The locations relative to cellular structures in which a gene product performs a function, either cellular compartments (e.g., mitochondrion), or stable macromolecular complexes of which they are parts (e.g., the ribosome). Unlike the other aspects of GO, cellular component classes refer not to processes but rather a cellular anatomy. |
Biological Process | The larger processes, or ‘biological programs’ accomplished by multiple molecular activities. Examples of broad biological process terms are DNA repair or signal transduction. Examples of more specific terms are pyrimidine nucleobase biosynthetic process or glucose transmembrane transport. Note that a biological process is not equivalent to a pathway. At present, the GO does not try to represent the dynamics or dependencies that would be required to fully describe a pathway. |
The design of the Disease ontology will enable greater understanding of disease states by placing heritable disorders in the context of other infectious diseases and related diseases. The structure of Disease Ontology and the external references to other terminologies will enable the integration of disparate datasets through the concept of disease.
KEGG is a database resource for understanding high-level functions and utilities of the biological system, such as the cell, the organism and the ecosystem, from molecular-level information, especially large-scale molecular datasets generated by genome sequencing and other high-throughput experimental technologies. See Release notes (October 1, 2021) for new and updated features.
Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) is a computational method that determines whether an a priori defined set of genes shows statistically significant, concordant differences between two biological states (e.g. phenotypes).The Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB) is a collection of annotated gene sets for use with GSEA.
H: hallmark gene sets (browse 50 gene sets) |
Hallmark gene sets summarize and represent specific well-defined biological states or processes and display coherent expression. These gene sets were generated by a computational methodology based on identifying overlaps between gene sets in other MSigDB collections and retaining genes that display coordinate expression. details |
