Research objective
To study differences in gene expression in
related fungus species

(Pichia, yeast)
- Aspergillus oryzae
(fungus)

Methods – Interaction
Top 100 genes were mapped to the
interactome file and visualised through
Cytoscape.
Hypothesis for yeast - Validation
• GC-content correlates positively with gene
length.
• Negative correlation with gene length and
degree of codon bias.
• Codon bias is more extreme in highly
expressed genes.
• Genes with longer introns show higher bias in
codon usage.
• The overall codon usage matches the known
bias.

Cytoscape
• GO terms
Top100 genes show different interactive network in GO terms
Results - First choice
Yeast Interactome Project for S. cerevisiae
•high-throughput yeast two-hybrid (Y2H)
provides high-quality binary interaction
information.
•high-throughput Y2H dataset covering ~20% of
all yeast binary interactions.
•This binary map is enriched for transient
signalling interactions and inter-complex
connections with a highly significant clustering
between essential proteins.
Database choosing
• interactions from CCSB-YI1
1,809 interactions among 1,278 proteins
Second choice
YeastNet v. 2
•a probabilistic functional gene network of yeast genes,
constructed from ~1.8 million expermental
observations from DNA microarrays, physical protein
interactions, genetic interactions, literature, and
comparative genomics methods.
• In total, YeastNet v.2 covers 102,803 linkages among
5,483 yeast proteins
•a modified Bayesian integration of diverse data types,
with each data type weighted according to how well it
links genes that are known to share functions. (LLS)
Database choosing
• All the top 100 genes could find interactors in
the Yeastnet v.2.
• We could find 9896 possibilities among
102,803 linkages
