HybridRanker: Integrating network structure and disease knowledge to prioritize cancer candidate genes
One of the notable fields in studying the genetics of cancer is disease gene identification which affects disease treatment and drug discovery. Many researches have been done in this field. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are one of them that focus on the identification of diseases-susceptible loci on chromosomes. Recently, computational approaches, known as gene prioritization methods h...
متن کاملNRSSPrioritize: Associating Protein Complex and Disease Similarity Information to Prioritize Disease Candidate Genes
The identification of disease-associated genes has recently gathered much attention for uncovering disease complex mechanisms that could lead to new insights into the treatment of diseases. For exploring disease-susceptible genes, not only experimental approaches such as genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been used, but also computational methods. Since experimental approaches are both...
متن کاملImproved integrative framework combining association data with gene expression features to prioritize Crohn's disease genes.
Genome-wide association studies in Crohn's disease (CD) have identified 140 genome-wide significant loci. However, identification of genes driving association signals remains challenging. Furthermore, genome-wide significant thresholds limit false positives at the expense of decreased sensitivity. In this study, we explored gene features contributing to CD pathogenicity, including gene-based as...
متن کاملWalking on multiple disease-gene networks to prioritize candidate genes.
Uncovering causal genes for human inherited diseases, as the primary step toward understanding the pathogenesis of these diseases, requires a combined analysis of genetic and genomic data. Although bioinformatics methods have been designed to prioritize candidate genes resulting from genetic linkage analysis or association studies, the coverage of both diseases and genes in existing methods is ...
متن کاملIntegrating omics data and protein interaction networks to prioritize driver genes in cancer
Although numerous approaches have been proposed to discern driver from passenger, identification of driver genes remains a critical challenge in the cancer genomics field. Driver genes with low mutated frequency tend to be filtered in cancer research. In addition, the accumulation of different omics data necessitates the development of algorithmic frameworks for nominating putative driver genes...
