• Difference: “Minus”
M = Log2(R) – Log2(G) = Log2(R/G)
• Mean: “Average”
A = 0.5 * ( Log2(R) + Log2(G) ) = 0.5 * Log2(R*G)

Data Normalisation
http://genome-www5.stanford.edu/mged/normalization.html
• Normalisation is an attempt to correct for systematic bias.
• Normalisation allows you to compare data from one array
to another.
• Systematic Bias can be introduced into microarray
experiments at all stages.
• Need to:

–
Avoid it (as much as possible)
Recognize it
Correct for it
Discard unrecoverable data
• In practice we do not always understand the data inevitably some biology will be removed too (or at least
not revealed).

Systematic Bias
Sources …
• Different labeling
efficiencies or dye
effects
• Scanner malfunction
• Differences in
concentration of DNA
on arrays (plate
effects)
• Printing or tip
problems
• Uneven hybridization
• Batch bias
• Experimenter issues
…and Dealing with it
• Detect and recognize the
effect  Note something
odd
• Determine magnitude and
effect on data  Try a few
methods
• Identify source of bias 
Think big!
• Eliminate or reduce
contributing factors
• Correct data
• Discard uncorrectable data

A Quantitative Overview to Gene Expression Profiling in Animal Genetics
Systematic Bias
Labeling Efficiencies Cause Bias
• One channel of a twochannel array has
higher intensity than the
other (usually GREEN).
• Most common source of
recognizable bias.
• Solution: Most easy to
addressed (eg. dyeswaps, balanced loops).

Systematic Bias
Scanning (operator?) Bias
• Mis-aligned lasers can
cause big problems
• In this case, the two
channels are slightly
out of register
• Solution: fix the
scanner and repeat

Systematic Bias
Printing (operator?) Bias
• Irregular shaped spots
are often observed
(printing error)
• Slides from the same
printing batch cluster
together
• Solution: Probably
limited to better printing
technique and image
analysis, rather than
normalization

Systematic Bias
Probe Bias
• Different concentrations
of probes might produce
patterns in arrays
• Biological role of probes
can produce patterns in
arrays
• These patterns can
create a spatial bias that
are not artificial, but
biological

Systematic Bias
Probe Bias
Coding regions
• Probes arranged on the
array based on
biological function
cause spatial bias
• Solution: avoid
arranging reporters
based on function,
know your experimental
design

A Quantitative Overview to Gene Expression Profiling in Animal Genetics
Systematic Bias
Hybridisation (operator?) Bias
• Poor technique during
hybridisation can cause a
spatial bias
• Operator is one of the largest
sources of systematic bias
• Experiments done by the
same operator often cluster
together more tightly than
warranted by the biology
• Solution: Consistent
methods, successful
techniques

Data Normalisation
Transformation …to near normality
• The Edwards’ transformation as well as the Lin-Log
transformation are an attempt to use the entire data, not
only those for which foreground is greater than background.
• The reasoning is that errors are linear and multiplicative for
small and large signals, respectively.
• The search for and choice of  could be rather unconvincing
(eg. Different for different array slides).
• Solution: Use Log2 if Foreground > Background
Otherwise, use a small arbitrary value (say 0),
Or simply disregard.
Alternatively: Use only Foreground and Log2 it

Additional Assumption (other than symmetry of changes):
The proportion of genes that are
Differentially Expressed (DE) is minimal
Question:
Which genes to use?
Answer:
Only the ones (housekeeping) that we
know are not DE
Comment:
“Boutique” arrays become a nuisance

Scale Normalisation (Standardisation)
“Some scale adjustments may be required so that the relative expression
levels from one particular experiment (slide) do not dominate the average
relative expression levels across replicate experiments.”
Yang et al 2002
Log2(R/G) – c(i)
a(i)
Notes: 1. The scaling a(i) is such that Var(M) = a(i)2 2
2. The estimation requires an approximation
(“robust”) to the geometric mean:
MAD
i
I

I
i 1
MADi
where MAD is the Median Absolute Deviation.
3. It doesn’t get any more heuristic (funnier?) than this
Armidale Animal Breeding Summer Course, UNE, Feb. 2006
A Quantitative Overview to Gene Expression Profiling in Animal Genetics
Data Normalisation
…and other beautifying techniques
Notes:
1. Except Log2, everything else applies only to Ratios: M = log2(R/G)
2. Except Log2, everything else applies only within slide
3. Everything is beautified to identify DE genes straight from MA-plot,
either from a single slide or from a function of M’s across slides.
4. The uncertainty in measurements increases as intensity decreases
5. Measurements close to the detection limit are the most uncertain
(cf. Sensitivity)
6. Fold-change measurements ignore these effects
7. We can calculate an intensity-dependent z-score that measures the
ratio relative to the standard deviation in the data
