# Running `MultiRNAflow` on a RNA-seq raw counts with different time points and several biological conditions

# Introduction

## Quick description of the document

This document is a quick workflow describing how to use our R package MultiRNAflow on one dataset (see Dataset used as example). For a more complete description of our package and complete outputs with graphs, the user must read our pdf file entitled ’MultiRNAflow_vignette-knitr.pdf”.

## Dataset used as example

The Mouse dataset 2 (Weger et al. 2021) is accessible on the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database with the accession number GSE135898.

This dataset contains the temporal transcription profile of 16 mice with Bmal1 and Cry1/2 knocked-down under an ad libitum (AL) or night restricted feeding (RF) regimen. Data were collected at 0, 4h, 8h, 16, 20h and 24h. Therefore, there are six time points and eight biological conditions. As there are only two mice per biological condition, we decided not to take into account the effect of the regimen. The dataset contains temporal expression data of 40327 genes.

To illustrate the use of our package, we take 500 genes, over the global 40327 genes in the original dataset. This sub dataset is saved in the file RawCounts_Weger2021_MOUSEsub500.

# Quick workflow

## Load package, example dataset and preamble

1. Load MultiRNAflow

    library(MultiRNAflow)

2. Load Mouse dataset 2

    data("RawCounts_Weger2021_MOUSEsub500")

3. Structure of the dataset (Preamble)

The dataset must be a data.frame containing raw counts data. If it is not the case, the functions `DATAnormalization()` and `DEanalysisGlobal()` will stop and print an error. Each line should correspond to a gene, each column to a sample, except a particular column that may contain strings of characters describing the names of the genes. The first line of the data.frame should contain the names of the columns (strings of characters) that must have the following structure.

    head(colnames(RawCounts_Weger2021_MOUSEsub500), n=5)
    #> [1] "Gene"       "BmKo_t1_r1" "BmKo_t2_r1" "BmKo_t0_r1" "BmKo_t3_r1"

In this example, “Gene” indicates the column which contains the names of the different genes. The other column names contain all kind of information about the sample, including the biological condition, the time of measurement and the name of the individual (e.g patient, replicate, mouse, yeasts culture…). Other kinds of information can be stored in the column names (such as patient information), but they will not be used by the package. The various information in the column names must be separated by underscores. The order of these information is arbitrary but must be the same for all columns. For instance, the sample “BmKo_t0_r1” corresponds to the first replicate (r1) of the biological condition BmKo at time t0 (reference time).

The information located to the left of the first underscore will be considered to be in position 1, the information located between the first underscore and the second one will be considered to be in position 2, and so on. In the previous example, the biological condition is in position 1, the time is in position 2 and the replicate is in position 3. In most of the functions of our package, the order of the previous information in the column names will be indicated with the inputs `Group.position`, `Time.position` and `Individual.position`. Similarly the input `Column.gene` will indicate the number of the column containing gene names.

## Preprocessing

4. Preprocessing with `DATAprepSE()`

    resDATAprepSE <- DATAprepSE(RawCounts=RawCounts_Weger2021_MOUSEsub500,
                                Column.gene=1,
                                Group.position=1,
                                Time.position=2,
                                Individual.position=3)

- Output: The function realizes the normalization step and returns a SummarizeExperiment object containing
  - all information about the raw counts data
  - a DESeqDataSet object to be used by the function `DEanalysisGlobal` for the statistical (supervised) analysis.
- Input:
  - The dataset must be RNA-seq raw counts (`RawCounts`)
  - The argument `Column.gene=1` means that the first column of the dataset contain genes name, `Time.position=2` means that the time of measurements is between the first and the second underscores in the columns names, `Individual.position=3` means that the name of the individual is between the second and the third underscores in the columns names and `Group.position=NULL` means that there is only one biological condition in the dataset. Similarly, `Time.position=NULL` would mean that there is only one time of measurement for each individual and `Column.gene=NULL` would mean that there is no column containing gene names.
- Other:
  - Write `?DATAprepSE` in your console for more information about the function.
  - For a more complete description of the function and package, the user must read our pdf file entitled “MultiRNAflow_vignette-knitr.pdf”.

## Exploratory data analysis

5. Normalization with `DATAnormalization()`

    resNorm <- DATAnormalization(SEres=resDATAprepSE,
                                 Normalization="vst",
                                 Blind.rlog.vst=FALSE,
                                 Plot.Boxplot=FALSE,
                                 Colored.By.Factors=TRUE,
                                 Color.Group=NULL,
                                 path.result=NULL)

- Output: The function realizes the normalization step and
  - returns the same SummarizedExperiment class object `resDATAprepSE` but with the normalized data
  - plots a boxplot (if `Plot.Boxplot=TRUE`) showing the distribution of the normalized expression (`Normalization="vst"` means that the vst method is used) of genes for each sample.
- Input:
  - The results of the function `DATAprepSE()`.
  - In order to display the output graph, set `Plot.Boxplot=TRUE`.
  - If `Colored.By.Factors=TRUE`, the color of the boxplots would be different for different biological conditions.
  - In order to save the different results in a folder, select a folder path in `path.result`.
- Other:
  - Write `?DATAnormalization` in your console for more information about the function.

                          path.result=NULL)

- Output: When samples belong to different biological conditions and different time points, the previous lines of code return
  - the same SummarizedExperiment class object `resNorm` but with the results of the function `PCA()` of the package `FactoMineR`.
  - One 2D PCA graph, one 3D PCA graph and the same 3D PCA graph in a rgl window (only if `motion3D=FALSE`) where samples are colored with different colors for different biological conditions. Furthermore, lines are drawn between each pair of consecutive points for each sample (if `Mean.Accross.Time=FALSE`, otherwise it will be only between means).

  - If you want to delete, for instance, the genes ’ENSMUSG00000025921’ and ’ENSMUSG00000026113’ (respectively the second and sixth gene) and/or delete the samples ‘BmKo_t2_r1’ and ‘BmKo_t5_r2’, set
    - `gene.deletion=c("ENSMUSG00000025921", "ENSMUSG00000026113")` and/or `sample.deletion=c("BmKo_t2_r1", "BmKo_t5_r2")`
    - `gene.deletion=c(2,6)` and/or `sample.deletion=c(3,13)`. The integers in `gene.deletion` and `sample.deletion` represent respectively the row numbers and the column numbers of `ExprData` where the selected genes and samples are located.

## Supervised statistical analysis

10. Differential Expresion (DE) analysis with `DEanalysisGlobal()`

For the speed of the algorithm, we will take only three biological conditions and three times

  - A Manhattan plot showing all GO names according to their pvalue.
  - A lollipop graph showing the `MaxNumberGO` most important GO.
- Input:
  - If `Set.Operation="union"` then the rows extracted from the different datasets included in `SEresDE` are those such that the sum of the selected columns of `SummarizedExperiment::rowData(SEresDE)` by `ColumnsCriteria` is >0. For example, the selected genes can be those DE at least at t1 or t2 (versus the reference time t0).
  - In order to display the different output graph, set `Display.plots=TRUE`.
  - In order to save the different results in a folder, set `Save.plots=TRUE` and a folder path in the input `path.result` in the function `DEanalysisGlobal()`.
- Other:
  - Write `?GSEAQuickAnalysis` in your console for more information about the function.
  - For a more complete description of the function and package, the user must read our pdf file entitled ’MultiRNAflow_vignette-knitr.pdf”.

    resGSEApreprocess <- GSEApreprocessing(SEresDE=resDE,
                                           ColumnsCriteria=2,
                                           Set.Operation="union",
                                           Rnk.files=FALSE,
                                           Save.files=FALSE)

- Output:
  - A vector of character containing gene names specified by `ColumnsCriteria` and `Set.Operation`.
  - A vector of character containing all gene names
  - And, in case where `Save.files=TRUE` and the path.result of `DEanalysisGlobal()` is not NULL, specific files designed to be used as input for the following online tools and software : GSEA, DAVID, WebGestalt, gProfiler, Panther, ShinyGO, Enrichr, GOrilla
- Input: If `Set.Operation="union"` then the rows extracted from the different datasets included in `SEresDE` are those such that the sum of the selected columns of `SummarizedExperiment::rowData(SEresDE)` by `ColumnsCriteria` is >0. For example, the selected genes can be those DE at least at t1 or t2 (versus the reference time t0).
