Packages}</p>
<p>\author{Sandrine Dudoit, Robert Gentleman and Katherine S. Pollard}</p>
<p>%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\begin{document}</p>
<p>\maketitle</p>
<p>In this lab, we demonstrate the main functions in the \texttt{marray}
suite of packages for diagnostic plots and normalization of two-color
spotted microarray data.
Efforts are underway to interact (read and write) with MAGE-ML documents.
A brief description of the four main \texttt{marray}
packages is given next.</p>
<p>\begin{description}
\item
\texttt{marrayClasses}. This package contains class definitions and
associated methods for pre- and post-normalization intensity data for
batches of arrays. Methods are provided for the creation and
modification of microarray objects, basic computations, printing,
subsetting, and class conversions.
\item
\texttt{marrayInput}. This package provides functionality for reading
microarray data into R, such as intensity data from image processing
output files (e.g., \texttt{.spot} and \texttt{.gpr} files for the \texttt{Spot}
and \texttt{GenePix} packages, respectively) and textual information on
probes and targets (e.g., from \texttt{.gal} files and god lists). \texttt{tcltk}
widgets are supplied to facilitate and automate data input and the
creation of microarray-specific R objects for storing these data.
\item
\texttt{marrayPlots}. This package provides functions for diagnostic plots
of microarray spot statistics, such as boxplots, scatterplots, and
spatial color images. Examination of diagnostic plots of intensity data
is important in order to identify printing, hybridization, and scanning
artifacts that can lead to biased inferences concerning gene expression.
\item
\texttt{marrayNorm}. This package implements robust adaptive location and
scale normalization procedures, which correct for different types of dye
biases (e.g., intensity, spatial, plate biases) and allow the use of
control sequences spotted onto the array and possibly spiked into the
mRNA samples. Normalization is needed to ensure that observed
differences in intensities are indeed due to differential expression and
not experimental artifacts; fluorescence intensities should therefore be
normalized before any analysis that involves comparisons among gene
expression measures within or between arrays.
\end{description}</p>
<p>To load the packages
<<loadPacks>>=
library(marrayNorm)
@</p>
<p>For a more detailed introduction, consult the package vignettes which
can be listed by the command \texttt{openVignette()}. A demo for
\texttt{marrayPlots} can also be accessed by \texttt{demo(marrayPlots)}. We
will work with the sample dataset \texttt{swirl}; for a description of
\texttt{swirl}, type \texttt{? swirl}. To load this dataset </p>
<p><<loadData>>=
data(swirl)
@</p>
<p>%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%% marrayClasses</p>
<p>\section{Basic classes and methods: \texttt{marrayClasses} package}</p>
<p>One of the main classes in \texttt{marrayClasses} is the \texttt{marrayLayout}
class; it is used to keep track of important layout parameters, such as the total number of spotted probe sequences on the array, the dimensions of
the spot and grid matrices, the plate origin of the probes,
information on spotted control sequences.
For details on this class consult the help file, \texttt{? marrayLayout}. Two other important classes are
\texttt{marrayRaw} and \texttt{marrayNorm}, which represent, respectively,
pre-normalization and post-normalization intensity data for a batch
of spotted microarrays. Methods for manipulating instances of these
classes are also described in the help files.</p>
<p>The object \texttt{swirl} is an instance of the class
\texttt{marrayRaw}. Try the following commands to obtain information on
this object</p>
<p><<swirl1>>=
class(swirl)
slotNames(swirl)
swirl
@</p>
<p>To access individual slots</p>
<p><<swirl2>>=
maLayout(swirl)
maGnames(swirl)
@</p>
<p>As with other microarray objects in Bioconductor packages, you can
use subsetting commands for \texttt{marrayRaw} objects. For data on
the first 100 genes in the second array in the \texttt{swirl} batch
<<subset>>=
sw<-swirl<a href="#ref1:100,2">[1:100,2]</a>
class(sw)
sw
@</p>
<p>You can access red and green foreground and background intensities,
and log ratios as follows
<<RG>>=
Gb<-maGb(swirl)
dim(Gb)
Gb<a href="#ref1:5,">[1:5,]</a>
Rf<-maRf(swirl)
dim(Rf)
Rf<a href="#ref1:5,">[1:5,]</a>
M<-maM(swirl)
dim(M)
@</p>
<p>%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%% marrayInput</p>
<p>\section{Reading in data: \texttt{marrayInput} package}</p>
<p>This package provides functionality for reading
microarray data into R, such as intensity data from image processing
output files (e.g., \texttt{.spot} and \texttt{.gpr} files for the \texttt{Spot}
and \texttt{GenePix} packages, respectively) and textual information on
probes and targets (e.g., from \texttt{.gal} files and god
lists). \texttt{tcltk} widgets are supplied to facilitate and automate data input and the
creation of microarray-specific R objects for storing these data.\\
See for example \texttt{?
read.marrayRaw} or \texttt{? widget.marrayRaw}.</p>
<p>%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%% marrayPlots</p>
<p>\section{Diagnostic plots: \texttt{marrayPlots} package}</p>
<p>The \texttt{marrayPlots} package provides functions for diagnostic plots
of microarray spot statistics, such as boxplots, scatterplots, and
spatial color images.
To produce a spatial image of background intensities for the Cy3
channel in the third array
<<image1,fig=TRUE>>=
tmp<-maImage(swirl<a href="#ref,3">[,3]</a>,x="maGb",bar=FALSE)
@</p>
<p>To produce a spatial image of log ratios for the first array in the batch
<<image2,fig=TRUE>>=
tmp<-maImage(swirl<a href="#ref,1">[,1]</a>,col=maPalette(low="blue",high="yellow"),bar=FALSE)
@</p>
<p>To produce boxplots of log ratios by sector for the first array in the batch
<<boxplot1,fig=TRUE>>=
maBoxplot(swirl<a href="lab3Marray.Rnw#ref,1">[,1]</a>)
@</p>
<p>To produce boxplots of log ratios by plate for the second array in the batch
<<boxplot2,fig=TRUE>>=
maPlate(swirl)<-maCompPlate(swirl,n=384)
maBoxplot(swirl<a href="lab3Marray.Rnw#ref,2">[,2]</a>,x="maPlate",names=NULL)
@</p>
<p>For boxplots of log ratios for all four arrays
<<boxplot3,fig=TRUE>>=
maBoxplot(swirl)
@</p>
<p>%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%% marrayNorm</p>
<p>\section{Normalization: \texttt{marrayNorm} package}</p>
<p>The \texttt{marrayNorm} package implements robust adaptive location and
scale normalization procedures, which correct for different types of dye
biases (e.g., intensity, spatial, plate biases).
The main location and scale normalization function is
\texttt{maNormMain}. Simpler wrapper functions are provided in
\texttt{maNorm} and \texttt{maNormScale}.
The functions operate on objects of class \texttt{marrayRaw} (or possibly \texttt{marrayNorm}, if normalization is performed in several steps) and return objects of class
\texttt{marrayNorm}.
For within-print-tip-group loess location normalization of the batch \texttt{swirl}</p>
<p><<norm>>=
swirl.norm<-maNormMain(swirl)
@</p>
<p>For boxplots of post-normalization log ratios
<<boxplot4,fig=TRUE>>=
maBoxplot(swirl.norm<a href="lab3Marray.Rnw#ref,1">[,1]</a>)
@</p>
<p><<boxplot5,fig=TRUE>>=
maBoxplot(swirl.norm)
@</p>
<p>%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%% marrayTools</p>
<p>\section{Miscellaneous tools: \texttt{marrayTools} package}</p>
<p>The \texttt{marrayTools} package provides additional functions for handling
two-color spotted microarray data, including a number of
user-friendly wrapper functions for performing standard analyses.\\</p>
<p>The \texttt{spotTools} and \texttt{gpTools} functions in the
development version of \texttt{marrayTools} start from Spot
(\texttt{.spot} and \texttt{.gal}) and GenePix (\texttt{.gpr} and \texttt{.gal}) image analysis output files, respectively, and
automatically read in these data into R, perform standard
normalization (within print-tip-group loess), and create a directory
with a standard set of diagnostic plots (jpeg format), excel files of
quality measures, and tab delimited files of normalized log ratios $M$
and
average log intensities $A$. In addition, an object of class \texttt{marrayRaw} or \texttt{marrayNorm} is returned.
The package also includes functions for computing various gene
statistics and for generating HTML pages for gene
lists (\texttt{htmlPage}).</p>
<p>%%%<<spotTools,eval=FALSE>>=
\begin{Sinput}
> datadir <- system.file("data", package="marrayInput")
> normdata <- spotTools(path=datadir, quality=FALSE)
\end{Sinput}
