Barcode Enrichment Plot
Display the enrichment of one or two gene sets in a ranked gene list.
barcodeplot(statistics, index = NULL, index2 = NULL, gene.weights = NULL, weights.label = "Weight", labels = c("Down","Up"), quantiles = c(-1,1)*sqrt(2), col.bars = NULL, alpha = 0.4, worm = TRUE, span.worm = 0.45, xlab = "Statistic", ...)
statistics |
numeric vector giving the values of statistics to rank genes by. |
index |
index vector for the gene set.
This can be a vector of indices, or a logical vector of the same length as |
index2 |
optional index vector for a second (negative) gene set.
If specified, then |
gene.weights |
numeric vector giving directional weights for the genes in the (first) set.
Positive and negative weights correspond to positive and negative genes.
Ignored if |
weights.label |
label describing the entries in |
labels |
character vector of labels for low and high statistics. First label is associated with low statistics or negative statistics and is displayed at the left end of the plot. Second label is associated with high or positive statistics and is displayed at the right end of the plot. |
quantiles |
numeric vector of length 2, giving cutoff values for |
col.bars |
character vector of colors for the vertical bars of the barcodeplot showing the ranks of the gene set members.
Defaults to |
alpha |
transparency for vertical bars. When |
worm |
logical, should enrichment worms be plotted? |
span.worm |
loess span for enrichment worms. Larger spans give smoother worms. |
xlab |
x-axis label for |
... |
other arguments are passed to |
This function plots the positions of one or two gene sets in a ranked list of statistics. If there are two sets, then one is considered to be the positive set and the other the down set. For example, the first set and second sets often correspond to genes that are expected to be up- or down-regulated respectively. The function can optionally display varying weights for different genes, for example log-fold-changes from a previous experiment.
The statistics are ranked left to right from smallest to largest.
The ranked statistics are represented by a shaded bar or bed, and the positions of the specified subsets are marked by vertical bars, forming a pattern like a barcode.
An enrichment worm optionally shows the relative enrichment of the vertical bars in each part of the plot.
The worm is computed by the tricubeMovingAverage
function.
Barcode plots are often used in conjunction with gene set tests, and show the enrichment of gene sets amongst high or low ranked genes. They were inspired by the set location plot of Subramanian et al (2005), with a number of enhancements, especially the ability to plot positive and negative sets simultaneously. Barcode plots first appeared in the literature in Lim et al (2009). More recent examples can be seen in Liu et al (2014), Sheikh et al (2015), Witkowski et al (2015) and Ng et al (2015).
The function can be used with any of four different calling sequences:
index
is specified, but not index2
or gene.weights
. Single direction plot.
index
and index2
are specified. Two directional plot.
index
and gene.weights
are specified. gene.weights
must have same length as statistics[index]
. Plot will be two-directional if gene.weights
contains positive and negative values.
gene.weights
is specified by not index
or index2
. gene.weights
must have same length as statistics
. Plot will be two-directional if gene.weights
contains positive and negative values.
No value is returned but a plot is produced as a side effect.
