  1. Ab initiogenotype-phenotype association reveals intrinsic modularity in genetic networks (in bacteria) Olivier Elemento, Tavazoie lab

  2. Some bacterial phenotypes … Motility Spore formation Gram-staining Hyper-thermophily

  3. Can we find the genes underlying these phenotypes ?

  5. Motility in bacteria • Some (but not all) bacteria are motile • Motile bacteria may share genes involved in motility • These genes may be absent from non-motile bacteria

  6. C. jejeuni B. subtilis B. anthrax E. coli M. tuberculosis S. Pneumonae S. aureus M. Leprae ~200 bacterial genomes … … Motility present absent (Levesque et al, 2003; Jim, Parmar, Singh and Tavazoie, 2004)

  7. C. jejeuni B. subtilis B. anthrax E. coli M. tuberculosis S. Pneumonae S. aureus M. Leprae ~200 bacterial genomes … … Motility E. coli Gene X present absent (Levesque et al, 2003; Jim, Parmar, Singh and Tavazoie, 2004)

  8. C. jejeuni B. subtilis B. anthrax E. coli M. tuberculosis S. Pneumonae S. aureus M. Leprae ~200 bacterial genomes … … Motility High correlation E. coli Gene X E. coli Gene Y … … Gene Y is likely involved in motility present absent (Levesque et al, 2003; Jim, Parmar, Singh and Tavazoie, 2004)

  9. C. jejeuni B. subtilis B. anthrax E. coli M. tuberculosis S. Pneumonae S. aureus M. Leprae ~200 bacterial genomes … … Motility B. subtilis gene Z (e.g. CheV) … present absent (Levesque et al, 2003; Jim, Parmar, Singh and Tavazoie, 2004)

  10. Calculate a phylogenetic profile for all 600,000 genes in bacteria (~1.2x10^8 BLASTs) • Collect the genes most correlated to the phenotype in all bacteria that have the phenotype (~3,000 for motility) • Merge homologous genes (based on sequence similarity)

  11. Merging homologous (orthologous/paralogous) genes ~ 3,000 motility genes ~ 3,000 motility genes 75 groups of homologs (Generic Genes)

  12. Motility E. coli Gene Y B. subtilis Gene Y B. anthrax Gene Y C. jejeuni Gene Y Generic Gene Y

  13. Can we recover such modules ? Motility GenericGene V GenericGene W GenericGene Y GenericGene Z

  14. Can we recover such modules ? GenericGene V GenericGene Z Module 1 GenericGene W GenericGene Y Module 2

  15. Can we recover such modules ? • Cluster Generic Gene profiles 1,000 times using Iclust with different random initializations (obtain slightly different clusters) • Group together genes which almost always end up in the same cluster Iclust: Slonim et al, 2006

  17. Phylogenetic profiles / modules for motility

  18. E. coli chemotaxis and flagellum modules Some E. coli genes are not recovered. Why ? Motility fliI, cheY fliO, cheZ …
