Preamble
• This document has many slides with multi-step
animations
– Best viewed in Slide Show mode
• The EGAN graphical user interface is evolving
– Icons may change
– Menus may change
– Button/widget placement may change
– This document probably won’t change as quickly
– Please contact the developers if you notice major
discrepancies between this and EGAN
Loading experiment results: An overview
• EGAN is designed to help you interpret the results of
exploratory assays
• EGAN does not actually do the multivariate statistical
analysis for your experiment
– It picks up where many useful analysis programs stop: at
the gene list
• If the entities measured in an assay can be mapped
to genes, the results can be loaded in EGAN

Expression microarrays
MS/MS peptide identifications
Genome-wide SNP/CNV assays
Next-gen sequencing
– DNA methylation assays
– ChIP chips
Loading experiment results: An overview
• EGAN works best when you load results
for all entities measured in the assay
– i.e., don’t apply a p-value cutoff on the results before
loading into EGAN
– Just because a gene missed the cutoff at p < 0.001, there’s
still a good chance that it is a significant hit
• Especially if it is related to other top hit genes
– EGAN will allow you to adjust the statistic/p-value cutoff
dynamically
• Then you can directly observe how networks/enrichment
scores change with different cutoff values
– Of course you can still load post-cutoff experiment results
• If that’s all you have…
Loading experiment results
into EGAN
Loading experiment results into EGAN:
The file format
•
Tab-delimited text
– Easy to create in Excel from existing result files
•
Header line required
– Header of statistic (second) column will become the experiment name
in EGAN
•
Three columns
– 1) Entity ID
• i.e. probe set ID, UniProt ID, refSNP ID, etc.
• You can use any IDs that can be mapped to Entrez Gene IDs
• EGAN provides a wide variety of mapping file options
–
HUGO Gene Symbol, AffymetrixAgilent/Illumina IDs, GenBank, Ensembl, UniProt, etc.
• EGAN expects that all entity IDs are the same type
– 2) Statistic (fold-change, regression coefficient, log-odds ratio, etc.)
• EGAN visualization schemes are best when the statistic column is centered
around 0
• Ratio and fold-change data can be 0-centered by logarithm
– 3) P-value (unadjusted, adjusted or q-value)
Loading experiment results into EGAN:
An example
Header line: the statistic (second) column header should be descriptive
Each row
represents the
analysis result
for one entity in
the experiment
Three columns: ID, statistic, p-value

Save as tab-delimited text
Loading experiment results into EGAN:
An example
• Download or construct an experiment result file
– This example will use two pre-made experiment
result files (download these files to follow along)
• Affymetrix (expression) predictors of Herceptin
resistance in HER2 over-expressing breast cancer cell
lines
• aCGH (copy number) predictors of Herceptin
resistance in HER2 over-expressing breast cancer cell
lines
– …and one custom mapping file
• Launch EGAN H. sapiens

Loading experiment results into EGAN:
An example
Whenever you change the network configuration by
adding or removing files, you will be given the option to
save the new configuration to a tab-delimited text file.
If you choose to save a .config file, next time you will
only need to specify that file (item 3 in the Launch
EGAN Wizard).

An example
Your experiments are now accessible in EGAN:
as columns in the Entrez Gene Node Table and
as rows in the Experiments Table.
