mvtests.RmdResults from the univariate regressions performed using can be combined in a post-processing step to perform multivariate hypothesis testing. In this example, we fit on transcript-level counts and then perform multivariate hypothesis testing by combining transcripts at the gene-level. This is done with the function.
Import transcript-level counts
Read in transcript counts from the package.
library(readr)
library(tximport)
library(tximportData)
# specify directory
path <- system.file("extdata", package = "tximportData")
# read sample meta-data
samples <- read.table(file.path(path, "samples.txt"), header = TRUE)
samples.ext <- read.table(file.path(path, "samples_extended.txt"), header = TRUE, sep = "\t")
# read assignment of transcripts to genes
# remove genes on the PAR, since these are present twice
tx2gene <- read_csv(file.path(path, "tx2gene.gencode.v27.csv"))
tx2gene <- tx2gene[grep("PAR_Y", tx2gene$GENEID, invert = TRUE), ]
# read transcript-level quatifictions
files <- file.path(path, "salmon", samples$run, "quant.sf.gz")
txi <- tximport(files, type = "salmon", txOut = TRUE)
# Create metadata simulating two conditions
sampleTable <- data.frame(condition = factor(rep(c("A", "B"), each = 3)))
rownames(sampleTable) <- paste0("Sample", 1:6)Standard dream analysis
Perform standard analysis at the transcript-level
library(variancePartition)
library(edgeR)
# Prepare transcript-level reads
dge <- DGEList(txi$counts)
design <- model.matrix(~condition, data = sampleTable)
isexpr <- filterByExpr(dge, design)
dge <- dge[isexpr, ]
dge <- calcNormFactors(dge)
# Estimate precision weights
vobj <- voomWithDreamWeights(dge, ~condition, sampleTable)
# Fit regression model one transcript at a time
fit <- dream(vobj, ~condition, sampleTable)
fit <- eBayes(fit)Multivariate analysis
Combine the transcript-level results at the gene-level. The mapping between transcript and gene is stored in as a list.
# Prepare transcript to gene mapping
# keep only transcripts present in vobj
# then convert to list with key GENEID and values TXNAMEs
keep <- tx2gene$TXNAME %in% rownames(vobj)
tx2gene.lst <- unstack(tx2gene[keep, ])
# Run multivariate test on entries in each feature set
# Default method is "FE.empirical", but use "FE" here to reduce runtime
res <- mvTest(fit, vobj, tx2gene.lst, coef = "conditionB", method = "FE")
# truncate gene names since they have version numbers
# ENST00000498289.5 -> ENST00000498289
res$ID.short <- gsub("\\..+", "", res$ID)Gene set analysis
Perform gene set analysis using on the gene-level test statistics.
