4.1. Analysis of RNA-seq data

For simplicity, let’s consider here how to run our custom warp-up function to analyse RNA-Seq data. If you are interested in using original Bioconductor functions - feel free to see in the code of LibDEA

Let’s consider the following libraries:

## load data
Data = read.table("http://edu.modas.lu/data/txt/counts.txt",header=T,sep="\t",row.names = 1)
str(Data)

This dataset contains 18 samples from 9 lung squamous cell carcinoma patients. Each tumor sample is paired with the normal. Below we will use 3 methods to exptract differentially expessed genes. Feel free to check LibDEA.r for more details.

source("http://r.modas.lu/LibDEA.r")
## [1] "----------------------------------------------------------------"
## [1] "libDEA: Differential expression analysis"
## [1] "Needed:"
## [1] "limma"    "edgeR"    "DESeq2"   "caTools"  "compiler" "sva"     
## [1] "Absent:"
## character(0)
group = sub("[0-9]+","",colnames(Data))

## using DESeq2
Res1 = DEA.DESeq(Data, group=group, key0="SN", key1="ST")
## 
## DESeq,unpaired: 11920 DEG (FDR<0.05), 8913 DEG (FDR<0.01)
## using edgeR
Res2 = DEA.edgeR(Data, group=group, key0="SN",key1="ST")
## 
## edgeR,unpaired: 8566 DEG (FDR<0.05), 5990 DEG (FDR<0.01)
## using edgeR
Res3 = DEA.limma(Data, group=group,  key0="SN",key1="ST",counted=TRUE)
## 
## Limma,unpaired: 9038,6004,3329,1767 DEG (FDR<0.05, 1e-2, 1e-3, 1e-4)

The results are not the same. Let’s see:

## Venn diagram
library(gplots)

id1 = Res1[Res1$FDR<0.01 & abs(Res1$logFC)>1,"id"]
id2 = Res2[Res2$FDR<0.01 & abs(Res2$logFC)>1,"id"]
id3 = Res3[Res3$FDR<0.01 & abs(Res3$logFC)>1,"id"]

venn(list(DESeq = id1, edgeR=id2, limma = id3))

## alternative Venn
# source("http://r.modas.lu/Venn.r")
# v = Venn(list(DESeq = id1, edgeR=id2, limma = id3))

Exercise 4

To DO: Annotate data for task 4!

  1. Analyze dataset LUSC60 using one of the methods (DESeq2, edgeR or limma) and compare the gene lists to those found in LIH dataset counts. Sample annotation is quite straitforward: SN - normal, ST - tumour, but can also be found in samples.txt Hint: you will need to translate genes from Ensembl to gene symbols using anno

Alternatively: generate your own “AMD” file in Excel as described in session on Exploratory Data Analysis, section 1.2.1.

DEA.limma,DEA.DESeq,DEA.edgeR sub, venn

  1. Select the top 1000 of the significant genes either in LUSC20 or in counts, save gene names into a file and perform enrichment analysis using Enrichr tool of Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, NY, USA.
