CLUSTER ANALYSIS
RESULTS: CLUSTER
ANALYSIS
• Co-expressed gene
clusters
• Associations not previously
reported
• Functionally related genes
co-induced:
– evidence for induction of
specific biological pathways

Limit availability of substrates for ETC?
…limit flux through ETC
…limit ROS production/oxidative damage

PROBLEMS WITH
CLUSTERING
• Good at identifying genes that are coexpressed in response to all/most
treatments
• Not good at identifying genes that
are co-expressed in response to
specific subsets of treatments

CLUSTERING

Genes
Treatments
NEW ALGORITHM:
ModuleFinder
• Choose an initial
subset of treatments
• Identify subset of
genes that are coexpressed in
response to these
treatments
• Cluster into groups
NEW ALGORITHM:
ModuleFinder
• Look for other treatments
under which these gene
clusters are co-expressed

Degradation of Transcripts
• Inhibit Transcription
• Measure [T] at different
times
• Rate of degradation
