In this experiment tutorial, I’ll be showing you how to create and interpret a gene expression heat map with the clue.io ConnectivityMap (CMap) Query application. WHAT YOU'LL NEED: Internet access Web browser A list of differentially expressed genes The ConnectivityMap (CMap) is a free resource that uses cellular responses to perturbation to find relationships (“connections”) between diseases, genes, and therapeutics. The CMap database contains over one million gene expression signatures from the treatment of a variety of cell types with a range of perturbagens, including small-molecule compounds, and gene overexpression or knockdown reagents. Changes in gene expression that arise from a disease or perturbagen treatment can be compared for similarity to all perturbational signatures in the CMap database. Perturbations with highly similar gene expression signatures are termed “connected” and their similar transcriptional effects suggest they have related physiological effects on the cell. The connections identified in CMap analysis can be used to develop hypotheses for disease treatments. For the purpose of this tutorial, we will be using CMap to analyze differentially expressed gene lists, with the goal of identifying the potential mode of action or target of an experimental compound. We’ll accomplish this by using the ConnectivityMap Query application to assess for connectivity between the differentially expressed genes that result from treatment with our experimental drug to known compounds and perturbations in the CMap database.
