Understanding GO analysis

Neel — Wed, 08 Feb 2023 04:22:01 -0600

The confusion about gene ontology and gene ontology analysis can start right from the term itself. There are actually two different entities that are commonly referred to as gene ontology or “GO”:

the ontology itself, which is a set of terms with their precise definitions and defined relationships between them, and
the associations between gene products and GO terms, which are used to capture the existing knowledge about what each gene is known to do.

But the term gene ontology, or GO, is commonly used to refer to both, which is sometimes a source of potential confusion. In order to avoid this, here we will use the term “GO ontology” to describe the set of terms and their hierarchical structure and “GO annotations” to describe the set of associations between genes and GO terms.

There are 3 types of terms, or domains if you wish, in the gene ontology:

Biological Processes (BP)
Molecular Functions (MF)
Cellular Components (CC)

DIY Transcriptomics

Abhi — Wed, 31 Jul 2024 01:19:26 -0500

A semester-long course covering best practices for the analysis of high-throughput sequencing data from gene expression (RNA-seq) studies, with a primary focus on empowering students to be independent in the use of lightweight and open-source software using the R programming language and the Bioconductor suite of packages. This course follows a hybrid format in which online lectures are paired with in-person labs where students participate in hands-on, live coding exercises using real ‘omic datasets. The course is focused on datasets and topics central to infectious disease research, immunology, and One-Health, but the concepts and approaches covered are applicable to any genomic study.

Single Cell RNAseq data analysis tutorial !!

Robert M Willioms — Mon, 27 Nov 2017 16:24:29 -0600

A major breakthrough (replaced microarrays) in the late 00’s and has been widely used since
Measures the average expression level for each gene across a large population of input cells
Useful for comparative transcriptomics, e.g. samples of the same tissue from different species
Useful for quantifying expression signatures from ensembles, e.g. in disease studies
Insufficient for studying heterogeneous systems, e.g. early development studies, complex tissues (brain)
Does not provide insights into the stochastic nature of gene expression
