Working with Marker and Phenotype Panels
In this tutorial, you will:
- Become familiar with the use of panels in geWorkbench
- Create active phenotype panels
- Classify the panels you created
Before you can continue, geworkbench should be running. For help with this, please refer to the Getting Started (insertlink) section. Load the tutorial file cardiomyopathy.exp . Please refer to Load Data (insertlink)tutorial if you need assistance loading this file.
Creating Panels
When working with microarrays, geWorkBench uses the term marker to refer to a gene probe (in other cases, it can be individual items from other data sets, such as sequences). Phenotype refers to any user-defined grouping of microarrays. These microarrays will often share some common property that in most cases is phenotypic, although this is not a requirement. For example, one such “phenotype” might be a single experiment on a tumor tissue sample, with a second “phenotype” defined as a collection of experiments performed on normal tissue samples.
Assign Panel
1. In the Phenotype panel, select and the following arrays in the contain samples from the congestive cardiomyopathy disease state. JB-ccmp_0120.txt, JB-ccmp_0218.txt, JB-ccmp0718.txt, JB-ccmp0811.txt, JB-ccmp1003.txt, JB-ccmp_1109.tx
2. Right-click, select Add to Panel.
3. Enter "Cardio" in the input box and click OK.
4. Next, similarly label the follow arrays as "Normal" ( repeat steps 2 & 3 ). JB-n_0106.txt , JB-n_0821.txt, JB-n_0915.txt, JB-n_1303.txt
5. Select the checked boxes next to the panel name to indicate that these groups of arrays are "Active". Various analysis and visualization components can be set to only use/display activated arrays or markers.
Classify panel
For statistical tests such as the t-test, Case and Control groups can be specified.
- Left-click on the thumb-tack icon in front of the phenotype name.
- Select Case to specify the disease arrays as the "Case". The remaining "Normal" arrays are by default labeled control.
A red thumbtack indicates the arrays have been specified as "Case".
Visualize Gene Expression
In the this tutorial, you will:
- Get acquainted with the various geWorkbench visualization tools
- View a dataset in geWorkbench
- Modify the visualization preference settings
Before you can continue, geworkbench should be running. For help with this, please refer to the Getting Started (insertlink)section. The file cardiomyopathy.exp is used in the this tutorial is from the Load Data (insertlink)tutorial.
Visualization Tools
Visualization tools provide a view of the chip(s) under investigation and can be used for ascertaining the quality of the data. Active gene and phenotype panels (insertlink) restrict the number of markers/arrays displayed. The images created can be saved and exported. A detailed description on how to manipulate visualization componenets is described in online help.
View a dataset
- Select a cardiomyopathy.exp in the Project Panel.
- Select the Microarray Panel visualization component in the View Area at the top-right section of the interface.
- Deselect the All Markers checkbox to display the entire dataset.
Note: '''All Arrays''' and '''All Markers''' checkboxes determine which data points are included in the display.
If neither is checked, then the entire data set is shown. The All Arrays control is useful when working with data sets comprising multiple arrays. In this case, only those arrays that are included in a currently activated phenotype panel will be displayed.
Preferences
The Preferences selection in the Tools menu allows users to specify how certain aspects of the system will behave. Once your preferences are set, these preferences are persistent between application sessions and are applied at once.
Modifying Settings
1. From the main menu, click on Tools>Preferences.
2. In the Preferences pop-up window, you can define settings for:
- Text Editor: The editor selected will be used to open and inspect data sets loaded in a project. Notepad is the default setting.
- Visualization: The color scheme to be applied to color mosaic images.
- Absolute: (default) Let M = max{|min|, |max|} over all expression measurements, across all arrays. If expression value x > 0, assign it the red spectrum x / M * 256. If expression value x is negative, assign it to the green spectrum -x / M * 256.
- Relative: This is similar to the setting for Absolute, but each marker is mean-variance normalized first.
- Genepix Value Computation: You can specify how compute the value displayed for Genepix array. The default setting is Option (Mean F635 - Mean B635) / (Mean F532 - Mean B532).
Select Relative for the visualization preference.
3. Click on OK.
Filter and Normalize Data
In this tutorial, you will:
- Get acquainted with the various filters and normalizers available in geWorkbench
- Apply a filter and normalizer on a tutorial dataset
Before you can continue, geworkbench should be running. For help with installation, please refer to the Getting Started (INSERT LINK)section. Load the tutorial file cardiomyopathy.exp . Please refer to Load Data (insertlink)tutorial if you need assistance loading this file.
Filter
Filtering can be used to screen out missing data points, remove low quality data or reduce the size of the dataset by removing less interesting data. Available geWorkbench filters are as follows:
Filter | Description | |
---|---|---|
Affy Detection Call | Applicable to Affymetrix data only. Sets all measurements whose detection status is any user-defined combination of A, P or M as missing. | |
Missing values | Discards all markers that have “missing” measurements in at least n microarrays, where n is defined by the user. Another filter must first be applied however, in order to generate the missing values upon which this filter can operate. | |
Deviation | Sets all markers whose measurements deviate below a given value across all microarrays as missing. | |
Expression Threshold | Sets all markers whose measurements are inside (or outside) a user-defined range as missing. | |
2 Channel | Applicable to 2-channel arrays (Genepix) data only. Defines applicable ranges for each channel, and sets all values for which either channel intensity is inside (or outside) the defined range as missing. |
Perform the following steps to filter out data called absent in an Affymetrix file:
- In the Filtering Panel, select Affy Detection Call Filter.
- Select ‘A’ (Absent) checkbox and Filter. Values that were removed (marked as missing) are highlighted in yellow.
- In the Filtering Panel, select Missing Values Filter.
- Choose the maximum number of arrays that can have missing values before marker is removed – default is 0.
- Click Filter. Markers with more than 0 missing values are removed. You’ll notice the yellow values are gone
Affy Detection Call Filter | Missing Values Filter | |
---|---|---|
Normalize
Normalization can be used to decrease the effects of systematic differences across a set of experiments. In geWorkbench, normalization results in replacing values with new values. Available geWorkbench normalization methods are as follows:
Normalizer | Description | |
---|---|---|
Missing value calculation | Replaces every missing value with either the mean value of that marker across all microarrays or with the mean measurement of all markers in the microarray where the missing value is observed | |
Log2 Transformation | Applies a log2 transformation to all measurements in a microarray | |
Threshold Normalizer | All data points whose value is less than (or greater than) a user-specified minimum (maximum) value are raised (reduced) to that minimum (maximum) value | |
Marker-based Centering | Subtracts the mean (median) measurement of a marker profile from every measurement in the profile | |
Array-based centering | Subtracts the mean (median) measurement of a microarray from every measurement in that microarray | |
Mean-variance normalizer | For every marker profile, the mean measurement of the entire profile is subtracted from each measurement in the profile and the resulting value is divided by the standard deviation |
Apply Quantile Normalizer
1. In the Normalization Panel, select Quantile Normalizer.
2. Leave the default averaging method of Mean Profile Marker to indicate handling of missing values..
3. Click Normalize. The View Area is updated to reflect normalization (after the screen has been refreshed). Note: The first value in the second row was update from 41,394.6 to 55,779.26.

Before you can continue, geworkbench should be running. For help with installation, please refer to the Getting Started (INSERT LINK)section. Load the tutorial file cardiomyopathy.exp . Please refer to Load Data (insertlink)tutorial if you need assistance loading this file.
T Test
T Test analysis identifies markers with statistically significant differential expression between sets of microarrays. The t-test determines for each marker if there is a significant difference between the two groups (case and control). To perform this analysis, you must classify the panels, set the analysis parameters and view the results in the visualization components. A detailed description of the T Test parameters is described in online help.
Classify the Panels
1. Mark the Cardio phenotype a 'Case'. By default, panels are marked as control. Panels classified Case is shown with a red thumbtack icon.
- Right-click on Cardio phenotype.
- Select Classification>Case.
2. Activate the arrays Normal and Cardio by selecting the checkboxes next to the panel name.
Set Analysis Parameters
- From the Analysis Panel, select T-Test Analysis.
- Populate the below parameters values and click on Analyze.
- Alpha-corrections tab: Just Alpha.
- P-Value Parameters tab: p-values based on t-distribution. Note that the default alpha (critical p-value) is set to 0.01.
- Degree of Freedom tab: Welch approximation - unequal group variances.
T-Test Results
Markers which met the significance test are included in a new gene panel called “Significant Genes”. | ||
Ancillary dataset is created in the project window. |
The values of the T-Test can be seen in the Color Mosaic panel and the Volcano Plot.
