Gene Ontology
Gene Ontology (GO) is a collection of controlled vocabularies
describing the biology of a gene product in any organism
There are 3 independent sets of vocabularies, or ontologies:
• Molecular Function (MF)
– e.g. ”DNA binding” and ”catalytic activity”
• Cellular Component (CC)
– e.g. ”organelle membrane” and ”cytoskeleton”
• Biological Process (BP)
– e.g. ”DNA replication” and ”response to stimulus”

KEGG pathways
• KEGG PATHWAYS:
– collection of manually drawn pathway maps representing our
knowledge on the molecular interaction and reaction networks,
for a large selection of organisms
• 1. Metabolism
– Carbohydrate, Energy, Lipid, Nucleotide, Amino acid, Other
amino acid, Glycan, PK/NRP, Cofactor/vitamin, Secondary
metabolite, Xenobiotics

Cluster analysis and GO
Analysis example:
• Partitioning clustering of genes into e.g. 10 clusters based
on expression profiles
• Assignment of GO terms to genes in clusters
• Looking for GO terms overrepresented in clusters
Hypergeometric test
• The hypergeometric distribution arises from
sampling from a fixed population.

100 balls
10 balls
• We want to calculate the probability for drawing 7 or
more white balls out of 10 balls given the
distribution of balls in the urn
