Microarray Я US : a user-friendly graphical interface to Bioconductor tools that enables accurate microarray data analysis and expedites comprehensive functional analysis of microarray results . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Background . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Microarray data analysis presents a significant challenge to researchers who are unable to use the powerful Bioconductor and its numerous tools due to their lack of knowledge of R language . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Among the few existing software programs that offer a graphic user interface to Bioconductor packages , none have implemented a comprehensive strategy to address the accuracy and reliability issue of microarray data analysis due to the well known probe design problems associated with many widely used microarray chips . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
There is also a lack of tools that would expedite the functional analysis of microarray results . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Findings . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
We present Microarray Я US , an R-based graphical user interface that implements over a dozen popular Bioconductor packages to offer researchers a streamlined workflow for routine differential microarray expression data analysis without the need to learn R language . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
In order to enable a more accurate analysis and interpretation of microarray data , we incorporated the latest custom probe re-definition and re-annotation for Affymetrix and Illumina chips . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
A versatile microarray results output utility tool was also implemented for easy and fast generation of input files for over 20 of the most widely used functional analysis software programs . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Conclusion . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Coupled with a well-designed user interface , Microarray Я US leverages cutting edge Bioconductor packages for researchers with no knowledge in R language . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
It also enables a more reliable and accurate microarray data analysis and expedites downstream functional analysis of microarray results . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Findings . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Background . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Microarray technology has been widely used for global gene expression profiling . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Based on the major public microarray data repositories such as NCBI GEO ( http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/ ) and ArrayExpress ( http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/ ) , the overwhelming majority of microarray studies were performed on Affymetrix GeneChips and Illumina BeadArrays , with human , mouse and rat being the most common model organisms . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Finding differentially expressed genes ( DEG ) under various experimental conditions is the primary goal of these studies.With hundreds of published packages , the R-based statistical platform Bioconductor [ 1 ] is a major solution for microarray data analysis . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
However , the command-line driven Bioconductor and its packages may prove to be inconvenient to use for experienced users dealing with multiple-step analysis , and virtually inaccessible for users with no solid knowledge about R. Graphical user interfaces ( GUI ) for Bioconductor packages have been developed to enable biology researchers to use cutting-edge algorithms without the need of learning R , notably , affylmGUI for Affymetrix data analysis [ 2 ] and oneChannelGUI for both Affymetrix and Illumina data analysis [ 3 ] . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Web-based software such as WebArray [ 4 ] and CARMAweb [ 5 ] were also developed to offer GUI to Bioconductor packages . | PMC3459790 | 1,307 | [

] |
Many of these software have been actively expanded since their initial releases , but as more and more functionalities are added , they are increasingly cumbersome to learn and use , especially for those who are mostly interested in differential expression analysis.A shortfall common to all these software is that they generally do not systematically address the probe design problems associated with many microarray chips . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
The Affymetrix 3 ’ IVT GeneChips have been the most popular platform for global gene expression analysis in the past decade . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
They consist of probe sets containing 11 – 20 pairs of 25mer probe targeting a gene or transcript . | PMC3459790 | 38,933 | [

] |
While designed with the most complete information available at the time , the tremendous progress in genome sequencing and annotation in recent years has rendered an increasing number of existing probe sets outdated . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Several studies [ 6-8 ] indicated that a substantial percentage ( 30-70 % ) of Affymetrix probe sets contain at least one probe that is either non unique , no-target , mis-targeted , or overlapping with known SNPs in the central region . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Besides adding noise , these problematic probes also affect the accuracy of expression value estimation [ 9,10 ] and references therein ] . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Furthermore , these studies have also shown that the annotations of a significant portion of the probe sets are either outdated or incorrect based on the latest genomic knowledge . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
The updated Affymetrix probe set annotation not only benefits our understanding of microarray results , but also improves the cross-platform reproducibility of microarray experiments [ 11,12 ] . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
While the chip design philosophy is different from Affymetrix ’ s GeneChips , Illumina ’ s BeadArrays have similar problems in terms of problematic probes and outdated probe annotations [ 13,14 ] . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Implementation . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Written in R , Microarray Я US was a cleanly designed GUI specifically for users who have no knowledge in R. | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
It provides a streamlined workflow for analyzing expression microarray data ( Figure 1 ) . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
The program console consists of a top menu bar , as well as a Work Flow Log and a Task Status to allow users to easily perform and track the status of their data analysis ( Figure 2 ) . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |

List of the implemented Bioconductor packages . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Results and discussion . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Microarray Я US was developed to not only provide a simple and streamlined workflow to researchers who are mainly interested in a fast differential gene expression analysis , but also to improve the accuracy and reliability of the analysis , as well as expedite downstream functional analysis of the microarray results . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
In addition to many carefully planned design characteristics aimed at enhancing its usability , Microarray Я US provides the following unique features : Support custom chip description files ( CDF ) for major 3'IVT affymetrix GeneChips and probe re-annotation for major affymetrix GeneChips and illumina BeadArrays . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
To enable researchers to take advantage of the latest research on probe set re-definition and re-annotation , we implemented the custom CDF and probe set re-annotation by Dai et al. ( 2005 ) and by Risueno et al. ( 2010 ) for Affymetrix GeneChips and probe re-annotation by Du et al. ( 2008 ) and Barbosa-Morais et al. ( 2009 ) for Illumina BeadArrays . | PMC3459790 | 12,483 | [
35
] |
To mitigate the undesirable consequences that arose from the aforementioned microarray probe design problems , Dai et al. ( 2005 ) and Risueno et al. ( 2010 ) used the latest genome / transcriptome sequences to perform strict probe re-alignment and mapping and discarded 30-60 % of the original Affymetrix probes that were problematic . | PMC3459790 | 12,483 | [
22
] |
The remaining probes were re-defined into new probe sets ( in the form of custom CDF ) and re-annotated with the latest genomic annotation . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
An independent evaluation of Dai et al. ’ s study concluded that the updated probe set definitions resulted in significant improvement of both precision and accuracy of expression level analysis [ 15 ] . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
For Illumina arrays , Du et al. ( 2008 ) eliminated up to 30 % of original probes without a unique and perfect match to a single Entrez gene by mapping probe sequences against the latest corresponding RefSeq sequences and re-annotated the remaining probes with the latest genomic annotations . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Barbosa-Morais et al. ( 2009 ) also re-defined the probes against the latest genome and transcriptome but used less strict rules for excluding uninformative probes.To our knowledge , Microarray Я US is the only microarray software that implements multiple custom CDF ( Affymetrix ) and probe set / probe re-annotation ( Affymetrix and Illumina ) for a more reliable gene expression analysis . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Quick generation of input files for comprehensive functional analysis of microarray results . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
The statistical analysis of microarray raw data often results in lists of hundreds of DEG . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Understanding the underlying mechanisms and functional ramification of such expression changes is becoming the most important and daunting task of ‘ Omics research . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
In the last decade , several hundred bioinformatics tools have been developed for biological interpretation of large gene lists at a systems biology level [ reviewed in 16 ] . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
A comprehensive functional analysis of microarray results commonly requires the use of multiple tools , as they differ in underlying statistical methods , annotation contents and analytical capabilities [ 16,17 ] . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
Different tools usually require different types / format of input files , and manually converting microarray results into these files is a very laborious task . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
To expedite comprehensive functional analysis , we implemented a results output utility tool that can instantly generate input files for some 20 of the most widely used commercial and open access functional analysis software ( see Additional file 2 . | PMC3459790 | -1 | [] |
