Data visualization plays a key role in high-throughput biology. It is an essential tool for data exploration allowing to shed light on data structure and patterns of interest. Visualization is also of paramount importance as a form of communicating data to a broad audience. Here, we provided a short overview of the application of the R software to the visualization of proteomics data. We present a summary of R's plotting systems and how they are used to visualize and understand raw and processed ...[more]

Project description:Sequencing costs are falling, but the cost of data analysis remains high, often because unforeseen problems arise, such as insufficient depth of sequencing or batch effects. Experimenting with data analysis methods during the planning phase of an experiment can reveal unanticipated problems and build valuable bioinformatics expertise in the organism or process being studied. This protocol describes using R Markdown and RStudio, user-friendly tools for statistical analysis and reproducible research in bioinformatics, to analyze and document the analysis of an example RNA-Seq data set from tomato pollen undergoing chronic heat stress. Also, we show how to use Integrated Genome Browser to visualize read coverage graphs for differentially expressed genes. Applying the protocol described here and using the provided data sets represent a useful first step toward building RNA-Seq data analysis expertise in a research group.

Project description:The FragPipe computational proteomics platform is gaining widespread popularity among the proteomics research community because of its fast processing speed and user-friendly graphical interface. Although FragPipe produces well-formatted output tables that are ready for analysis, there is still a need for an easy-to-use and user-friendly downstream statistical analysis and visualization tool. FragPipe-Analyst addresses this need by providing an R shiny web server to assist FragPipe users in conducting downstream analyses of the resulting quantitative proteomics data. It supports major quantification workflows including label-free quantification, tandem mass tags, and data-independent acquisition. FragPipe-Analyst offers a range of useful functionalities, such as various missing value imputation options, data quality control, unsupervised clustering, differential expression (DE) analysis using Limma, and gene ontology and pathway enrichment analysis using Enrichr. To support advanced analysis and customized visualizations, we also developed FragPipeAnalystR, an R package encompassing all FragPipe-Analyst functionalities that is extended to support site-specific analysis of post-translational modifications (PTMs). FragPipe-Analyst and FragPipeAnalystR are both open-source and freely available.

Project description:Spatial proteomics is the systematic study of protein sub-cellular localisation. In this workflow, we describe the analysis of a typical quantitative mass spectrometry-based spatial proteomics experiment using the MSnbase and pRoloc Bioconductor package suite. To walk the user through the computational pipeline, we use a recently published experiment predicting protein sub-cellular localisation in pluripotent embryonic mouse stem cells. We describe the software infrastructure at hand, importing and processing data, quality control, sub-cellular marker definition, visualisation and interactive exploration. We then demonstrate the application and interpretation of statistical learning methods, including novelty detection using semi-supervised learning, classification, clustering and transfer learning and conclude the pipeline with data export. The workflow is aimed at beginners who are familiar with proteomics in general and spatial proteomics in particular.

Project description:Interactive data visualization is imperative in the biological sciences. The development of independent layers of interactivity has been in pursuit in the visualization community. We developed bigPint, a data visualization package available on Bioconductor under the GPL-3 license (https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/bigPint.html). Our software introduces new visualization technology that enables independent layers of interactivity using Plotly in R, which aids in the exploration of large biological datasets. The bigPint package presents modernized versions of scatterplot matrices, volcano plots, and litre plots through the implementation of layered interactivity. These graphics have detected normalization issues, differential expression designation problems, and common analysis errors in public RNA-sequencing datasets. Researchers can apply bigPint graphics to their data by following recommended pipelines written in reproducible code in the user manual. In this paper, we explain how we achieved the independent layers of interactivity that are behind bigPint graphics. Pseudocode and source code are provided. Computational scientists can leverage our open-source code to expand upon our layered interactive technology and/or apply it in new ways toward other computational biology tasks.

Project description:BackgroundThis paper describes the results of a Gene Ontology (GO) term enrichment analysis of chicken microarray data using the Bioconductor packages. By checking the enriched GO terms in three contrasts, MM8-PM8, MM8-MA8, and MM8-MM24, of the provided microarray data during this workshop, this analysis aimed to investigate the host reactions in chickens occurring shortly after a secondary challenge with either a homologous or heterologous species of Eimeria. The results of GO enrichment analysis using GO terms annotated to chicken genes and GO terms annotated to chicken-human orthologous genes were also compared. Furthermore, a locally adaptive statistical procedure (LAP) was performed to test differentially expressed chromosomal regions, rather than individual genes, in the chicken genome after Eimeria challenge.ResultsGO enrichment analysis identified significant (raw p-value < 0.05) GO terms for all three contrasts included in the analysis. Some of the GO terms linked to, generally, primary immune responses or secondary immune responses indicating the GO enrichment analysis is a useful approach to analyze microarray data. The comparisons of GO enrichment results using chicken gene information and chicken-human orthologous gene information showed more refined GO terms related to immune responses when using chicken-human orthologous gene information, this suggests that using chicken-human orthologous gene information has higher power to detect significant GO terms with more refined functionality. Furthermore, three chromosome regions were identified to be significantly up-regulated in contrast MM8-PM8 (q-value < 0.01).ConclusionOverall, this paper describes a practical approach to analyze microarray data in farm animals where the genome information is still incomplete. For farm animals, such as chicken, with currently limited gene annotation, borrowing gene annotation information from orthologous genes in well-annotated species, such as human, will help improve the pathway analysis results substantially. Furthermore, LAP analysis approach is a relatively new and very useful way to be applied in microarray analysis.

Project description:Background: Expression proteomics involves the global evaluation of protein abundances within a system. In turn, differential expression analysis can be used to investigate changes in protein abundance upon perturbation to such a system. Methods: Here, we provide a workflow for the processing, analysis and interpretation of quantitative mass spectrometry-based expression proteomics data. This workflow utilizes open-source R software packages from the Bioconductor project and guides users end-to-end and step-by-step through every stage of the analyses. As a use-case we generated expression proteomics data from HEK293 cells with and without a treatment. Of note, the experiment included cellular proteins labelled using tandem mass tag (TMT) technology and secreted proteins quantified using label-free quantitation (LFQ). Results: The workflow explains the software infrastructure before focusing on data import, pre-processing and quality control. This is done individually for TMT and LFQ datasets. The application of statistical differential expression analysis is demonstrated, followed by interpretation via gene ontology enrichment analysis. Conclusions: A comprehensive workflow for the processing, analysis and interpretation of expression proteomics is presented. The workflow is a valuable resource for the proteomics community and specifically beginners who are at least familiar with R who wish to understand and make data-driven decisions with regards to their analyses.

Project description:SummaryLarge-scale, quantitative proteomics data are being generated at ever increasing rates by high-throughput, mass spectrometry technologies. However, due to the complexity of these large datasets as well as the increasing numbers of post-translational modifications (PTMs) that are being identified, developing effective methods for proteomic visualization has been challenging. ProteomicsBrowser was designed to meet this need for comprehensive data visualization. Using peptide information files exported from mass spectrometry search engines or quantitative tools as input, the peptide sequences are aligned to an internal protein database such as UniProtKB. Each identified peptide ion including those with PTMs is then visualized along the parent protein in the Browser. A unique property of ProteomicsBrowser is the ability to combine overlapping peptides in different ways to focus analysis of sequence coverage, charge state or PTMs. ProteomicsBrowser includes other useful functions, such as a data filtering tool and basic statistical analyses to qualify quantitative data.Availability and implementationProteomicsBrowser is implemented in Java8 and is available at https://medicine.yale.edu/keck/nida/proteomicsbrowser.aspx and https://github.com/peng-gang/ProteomicsBrowser.Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Project description:BackgroundHighly multiplexed imaging enables single-cell-resolved detection of numerous biological molecules in their spatial tissue context. Interactive visualization of multiplexed imaging data is crucial at any step of data analysis to facilitate quality control and the spatial exploration of single cell features. However, tools for interactive visualization of multiplexed imaging data are not available in the statistical programming language R.ResultsHere, we describe cytoviewer, an R/Bioconductor package for interactive visualization and exploration of multi-channel images and segmentation masks. The cytoviewer package supports flexible generation of image composites, allows side-by-side visualization of single channels, and facilitates the spatial visualization of single-cell data in the form of segmentation masks. As such, cytoviewer improves image and segmentation quality control, the visualization of cell phenotyping results and qualitative validation of hypothesis at any step of data analysis. The package operates on standard data classes of the Bioconductor project and therefore integrates with an extensive framework for single-cell and image analysis. The graphical user interface allows intuitive navigation and little coding experience is required to use the package. We showcase the functionality and biological application of cytoviewer by analysis of an imaging mass cytometry dataset acquired from cancer samples.ConclusionsThe cytoviewer package offers a rich set of features for highly multiplexed imaging data visualization in R that seamlessly integrates with the workflow for image and single-cell data analysis. It can be installed from Bioconductor via https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/cytoviewer.html . The development version and further instructions can be found on GitHub at https://github.com/BodenmillerGroup/cytoviewer .
