A new method for analyzing gene expression data

Microarray technique provides a systematic genome-wide approach to solve a wide range of problems such as gene functions, gene regulations, and the disease diagnoses and treatments. A key step in the analysis of gene expression data is to identify biologically relevant groups of genes or tissue samp...

description Microarray technique provides a systematic genome-wide approach to solve a wide range of problems such as gene functions, gene regulations, and the disease diagnoses and treatments. A key step in the analysis of gene expression data is to identify biologically relevant groups of genes or tissue samples that have similar expression patterns. However, systematic and stochastic fluctuations are usually involved in microarray experiments<sup>[1]</sup>, so the raw measurements have inherent ‘noise’ within microarray experiments. In current, logarithmic ratios are usually analyzed directly by various clustering methods, which may introduce bias interpretation in identifying groups of genes or samples. In the present study, a new method based on mixed model approaches is proposed for cluster analysis of gene expression data. It is expected to minimize or eliminate inherent ‘noise’ in microarray experiments and to make sure the inputs of cluster analysis are more biologically meaningful. Meanwhile, we present a windows-interface software, called ClusterProject, for gene expression analysis and visualization.
