For a better understanding of the biology of an organism a complete description is needed of all regions of the genome that are actively transcribed. Tiling arrays can be used for this purpose. Such arrays allow the discovery of novel transcripts and the assessment of differential expression between two or more experimental conditions such as genotype, treatment, tissue, etc. Much of the initial methodological efforts were designed for transcript discovery, while more recent developments also focus on differential expression. To our knowledge no methods for tiling arrays are described in the literature that can both assess transcript discovery and identify …

Emerging evidence indicates that gene products implicated in human cancers often cluster together in "hot spots" in protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. Additionally, small sub-networks within PPI networks that demonstrate synergistic differential expression with respect to tumorigenic phenotypes were recently shown to be more accurate classifiers of disease progression when compared to single targets identified by traditional approaches. However, many of these studies rely exclusively on mRNA expression data, a useful but limited measure of cellular activity. Proteomic profiling experiments provide information at the post-translational level, yet they generally screen only a limited fraction of the proteome. Here, we demonstrate that …

Graphs and networks are common ways of depicting information. In biology, many different processes are represented by graphs, such as regulatory networks, metabolic pathways and protein-protein interaction networks. This information provides useful supplement to the standard numerical genomic data such as microarray gene expression data. Effectively utilizing such an information can lead to a better identification of biologically relevant genomic features in the context of our prior biological knowledge. In this paper, we present a Bayesian variable selection procedure for network-structured covariates for both Gaussian linear and probit models. The key of our approach is the introduction of a Markov …
