Study Notes
Gene Lists and Gene Network Analysis
- Gene lists can originate from various sources, including high-throughput genomic experiments, such as RNA sequencing, microarray analysis, or ChIP sequencing.
- The primary purpose of gene network analysis is to identify and understand the relationships between genes, proteins, and other molecules to gain insights into biological processes and disease mechanisms.
- Interpreting gene lists involves several steps, including filtering, enrichment analysis, and clustering, to identify functional themes, pathways, and biological processes associated with the genes on the list.
- The term "Gene Lists" refers to collections of genes that are associated with specific biological processes, diseases, or experimental conditions.
- A potential source of gene lists is the analysis of genomic data from patients with a specific disease or condition, allowing researchers to identify genes that are commonly altered or expressed in the disease state.
