Cartoons may not be enough

… and drawn cartoons

“Taken togethertogether, these data suggestsuggest that EBF & E2A maymay be less importantless important than

Pax-5 for regulating lowlow--levellevel mb-1 transcription at laterlater stages of development.”

Mol. Cell Biol. Dec’02, p.8850

These stories might be

• too qualitative• too hard to integrate

Benno Schwikowski

Cartoons are hard to combine

• The stories are designed around specific questions

• They are not written against a single conceptual scaffold

• We may not be able to integrate cartoons into coherent models

Uses for the study of biological networks and systems

• Better characterize the function of single genes• Help structure, represent and interpret experimental data on

interactions and states– Integrate different types of experimental data– Relate mechanisms to states

• Build a detailed understanding of cellular processes – Allow prediction of cellular state observables at different levels of

detail– Allow intervention with predictable & measurable outcomes

• Guide experiments by providing testable hypotheses • Compare processes within and across organisms

• Two hybrid proteins are generated with transcription factor domains• Both fusions are expressed in a yeast cell that carries a reporter gene

whose expression is under the control of binding sites for the DNA-binding domain

Reporter Gene

BaitProtein

BindingDomain

Prey Protein

ActivationDomain

• Interaction of bait and prey proteins localizes the activation domain to the reporter gene, thus activating transcription.

• Since the reporter gene typically codes for a survival factor, yeast colonies will grow only when an interaction occurs.

Protein-protein interactionsin yeast

Questions

• Is there any correlation between protein interactions and other attributes of proteins?• Is that correlation significant, i.e., would it not easily occur in random data?

Benno Schwikowski

Functionally related proteinsoccur as clusters of interacting proteins

Benno Schwikowski

Protein interactions contain informationabout cellular roles

Simple prediction algorithm for the cellular role of a protein

1) Rank known cellular roles among the interactorsfrom most frequent to least frequent.

2) Take the first three (or less) roles as predictions.

Accuracy on 1,393 out of 2,039 proteins: 72% (6 out of 8)…on 100 scrambled networks: 12% (1 out of 8).

Module – A mathematical definition

A scoring system for regulatory “activity”

• Assign significance to each gene expression change† and express as a z-score• The z-score of an entire subnetwork is the normalized sum of scores of its

nodes† Ideker, Thorsson, Siegel, and Hood, J. Comp. Bio. 7: 805 (2000)

Running the algorithm again on the high-scoring, 340-gene subnetwork reveals further structure

Each condition may appear several times, or not at all, depending on how well it is (a) significant and (b) explained by the interaction network.

Finding good modules

Benno Schwikowski

Finding good modules in a large network is hard

• Once specified, we can easily score a particular pathway.• But how to identify the highest-scoring pathways in a full molecular

interaction network of thousands of nodes and interactions?• This problem is NP-complete, • We use a customized version of a general-purpose algorithm to

detect high-scoring pathways from the data.

Use a method based on simulated annealing.

Benno Schwikowski

Computational complexity

• 6,000 genes form up to 26,000 possible gene sets• 300 conditions have 2300 subsets ⇒ 2180,000 > 1050,000 combinations to search

• Finding the highest-scoring gene set is NP-hard, even for a single condition

Benno Schwikowski

NP-hardness

• NP-hardness is a property of computational problems• It implies any algorithm that solves the problem runs at

least as long as thousands of other well-known problems

• Efficient algorithms for NP-hard problems are unknown (and probably don’t exist)

• Thus, need to look for approximation or heuristicalgorithms

Detail of subnetwork 1bGalactose metabolism

Our method is only concerned with the significance of change, not its direction.

Gal4 doesn’t show dramatic expression change, but it is included because it connects and explains the other genes’differential expression.

SUMMARY

• Method for explaining gene expression profiles with molecular interactions found in the public databases.

•Results in testable hypotheses for the signaling and regulatory pathways behind observed gene expression changes.

Benno Schwikowski

Features of this approach

• Tries to define clusters of genes that show similar concerted reactions to perturbations

• Incorporates many data types• Robust against noise, false positive interactions• Many, and experiment-specific networks identified• Interpretive framework offers testable hypotheses
