Need to convert gene IDs for GAGE pathway analysis

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to perform a pathway analysis with the R Bioconductor packages Gage/Pathview on honey bee RNA-seq data. I think I got to more or less write a script that would work, except it doesn't because my gene expression data uses gene IDs from BeeBase, while the Kegg package of the honey bee uses ncbi gene ids, so I would need to convert the gene names of my differential expression results. Here's the code I wrote so far:

`res_ut_ins.fc=res_ut_ins$log2FoldChange

names(res_ut_ins.fc)=rownames(res_ut_ins)

exp.fc=res_ut_ins.fc

out.suffix="deseq2"


require(gage)

datakegg.gs)

kg.ame=kegg.gsets("ame")

names(kg.ame)

lapply(kg.ame[1:3], head)

lapply(exp.fc[1:3],head)

#Use the signaling pathways and metabolic pathways in the analysis. Extract those pathways:
kegg.gs=kg.ame$kg.sets[kg.ame$sigmet.idx]

#now call gage with your data like:
fc.kegg.p <- gage(exp.fc, gsets = kegg.gs, ref = NULL, samp = NULL, gene.idtype="RefSeq" )

sel <- fc.kegg.p$greater[, "q.val"] < 1 &
  !is.na(fc.kegg.p$greater[, "q.val"])

path.ids <- rownames(fc.kegg.p$greater)[sel]

sel.l <- fc.kegg.p$less[, "q.val"] < 1 &
  !is.na(fc.kegg.p$less[,"q.val"])

path.ids.l <- rownames(fc.kegg.p$less)[sel.l]

path.ids2 <- substr(c(path.ids, path.ids.l), 1, 8)

lapplykegg.gs[1:3], head, 3)

lengthkegg.gs)

head(exp.fc)

str(exp.fc)

head(path.ids)

head(path.ids2)

head(fc.kegg.p$greater)

require(pathview)
#view first 3 pathways as demo
pv.out.list <- sapply(path.ids2, function(pid) pathview(
  gene.data= exp.fc, pathway.id=pid, 
  species="ame", out.suffix=outsuffix, gene.idtype="Kegg"))`

So I think the problem is that my kg.sets look like:

$kg.sets$`ame04512 ECM-receptor interaction`
 [1] "100576742" "406097"    "408393"    "408551"    "408552"    "408826"    "409448"   
 [8] "409474"    "409924"    "410038"    "410775"    "412663"    "412941"    "413739"   
[15] "413782"    "724950"    "726736"    "726871"

While my exp.fc looks like:

GB40001-RA GB40002-RA GB40003-RA GB40004-RA GB40005-RA GB40006-RA 
 0.0000000         NA -0.1594682         NA -0.1337054 -0.1054865

Looking around for related posts I've found this solution (http://seqanswers.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-35472.html) to create a mapping table for conversion:

"You can download the gene_info data file from NCBI ftp site: ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/DATA/GENE_INFO/Invertebrates/All_Invertebrates.gene_info.gz under unix/linux shell, do: gunzip All_Invertebrates.gene_info.gz egrep '(^7460)' All_Invertebrates.gene_info >>am.gene_info.txt

Column 2-6 are (Entrez) GeneID, Symbol, LocusTag, Synonyms, dbXrefs. You see GB numbers in Column 5 and 6. After get the ID mapping, you can use mol.sum in pathview package to merge redundant IDs into a unified expression level. ?pathview::mol.sum "

But my problem is that I don't know how to do the last bit of what is suggested here, getting the ID mapping in r and using mol.sum to merge the redundant IDs. Could someone check my script so far and help writing the missing lines of the script?

Thanks a lot in advance for your kind help.

Best, Joanito

Did you try using GeneSCF (Supports gene ids and symbols).

Example for supported ids for ame, Apis mellifera (honey bee),


**Geneids**   **GeneSymbols**

552457  GMCOX6, GB16735

410745  GMCOX7, GB13150

410744  GB19663

726243  Flo2, GB15521

410743  GMCOX9, GB17446

410742  GMCOX10, GB16967

408609  GB10050

./geneSCF -m=update -i=INPUTgene.list -t=gid -db=KEGG -o=/ExistingOUTPUTfolder/ -org=ame --plot=yes --background=#TotalGenesFromAnnotation

Thanks EagleEye I will give that a try. However, I would like to also do the Gge/Pathview analysis for several reasons. All that I'd need is to convert my gene IDs, and I guess it shouldn't be that difficult when I have a table with both ID types to make the conversion, but I'm not sure how that is done in R. Can someone please help with this? Thanks a lot!

Hi Andrea Wall,

I am facing the same problem as yours regarding converting gene names to Entrez gene IDs. If you had found the solution, would you please share it here? Thanks in advance, Arumoy.
