GO_container (dict) – Dict with the index of gene ontology set name as keys and the list of indices of the gene sets that are contained in the key gene set.
GO_BP_names (list) – Names of gene ontology gene sets.

CoRe.fnGO.compute_p_values(sources, GO_BPs, interaction_set, total_genes, minimum_GOBP=False, size_threshold=inf, full=False)[source]

Benjamini-Hochberg p-value correction for multiple hypothesis testing.

Parameters

sources (list) – Names of factors that are causing the information transfer in the network.
minimum_GOBP (list) – Names of gene sets for biological processes at the lowest level, i.e. these sets do not contain other gene sets.
GO_BPs (array_like) – Gene sets for Gene Ontology Biological Processes.
interaction_set (dict) – Set of genes receiving information from the sources.
total_genes (int) – Total number of unique genes across all gene sets.

Returns

go_names (dict) – Gene Ontology Biological Processes that are over-represented by the sources.
p_values (dict) – Fisher’s exact test p-value for Gene Ontology over-represenation analysis.

CoRe.fnGO.compute_q_values(p_values, go_names, go_tags, alpha=0.01, return_all=False)[source]

Benjamini-Hochberg p-value correction for multiple hypothesis testing.

Parameters

p_values (array_like) – A list or array of p-values, from Fisher’s exact text, for multiple hypothesis.

Returns

q_values (array_like) – Sorted positive False Discovery Rate corrected for multiple hypothesis testing.
p_values_go (array_like) – Names of the associated gene ontology biological processes.

CoRe.fnGO.findGOcontainer(GO_embedding, outputfile)[source]

Identifies that gene sets that contains other gene sets. The gene sets that do not contain other gene sets are returned as dictionary keys with an empty list as the entry.

Parameters

GO_sets (dict) – Dictionary with gene set index as keys and the list of gene set that contains it as entries.
outputfile (string) – Name of the file to store the output.

Returns

GO_container – Dict with the index of gene ontology set name as keys and the list of indices of the gene sets that are contained in the key gene set.

Return type

dict

CoRe.fnGO.findGOembedding(GO_sets, outputfile)[source]

Identifies that gene sets that are embedded within other gene sets. The gene sets that are not embedded in any other gene set are returned as dictionary keys with an empty list as the entry.

Parameters

GO_sets (dict) – Dictionary with gene set name as keys and the list of associated genes as entries.
outputfile (string) – Name of the file to store the output.

Returns

GO_embedding – Dict with the index of gene ontology set name as keys and the list of indices of the gene sets that contains the key gene set.

Return type

dict

CoRe.fnGO.p_adjust_bh(p)[source]

Benjamini-Hochberg p-value correction for multiple hypothesis testing.

Parameters: p (array_like) – A list or array of p-values, from Fisher’s exact text, for multiple hypothesis.
Returns: q – Adjusted positive False Discovery Rate (pFDR).
Return type: array_like

CoRe.fnGO.readGOBPs(GO_directory)[source]

Reads the gene sets associated with Gene Ontology Biological Processes.

Parameters: GO_directory – Directory containing the GO data files from Moleculary Signatures Database. This directory contains a set of .csv files with GOBP names as filenames containing the list of associated genes.
Returns: GO_BPs – Dict with GOBP names as keys and the list of associated genes as the dictionary entry.
Return type: dict

CoRe.fnGO.readGOsets(GO_file, GO_category)[source]

Reads the gene ontology data set as a python dictionary.

Parameters

GO_file (string) – Name of the file containing Gene Ontology gene sets.
GO_category (string) – Name of the gene ontology category, one among the three, ‘GOBP’, ‘GOCC’, or ‘GOMF’.

Returns

GO_BPs (dict) – Dict with gene ontology gene set as keys and the list of associated genes as dictionary entries.
total_unique_genes (list) – Names of unique genes in the total gene ontology data set.

CoRe.fnGO.total_genes(GOBPs)[source]

Determines the list of unique genes across all the GO gene sets.

Parameters: GO_BPs (dict) – Dict with GOBP names as keys and the list of associated genes as the dictionary entry.
Returns: unique_genes – Name of genes present in the gene set database.
Return type: list
