Another Bioconductor package we will also be introduce is called ELMER (L. Yao et al. 2015,Chedraoui Silva et al. (2017)) which allows one to identify DNA methylation changes in distal regulatory regions and correlate these signatures with expression of nearby genes to identify transcriptional targets associated with cancer. For these distal probes correlated with a gene, a transcription factor motif analysis is performed followed by expression analysis of transcription factors to infer upstream regulators.
We expect that participants of this workshop will understand the integrative analysis performed by using TCGAbiolinks + ELMER, as well as be able to execute it from the data acquisition process to the final interpretation of the results. The workshop assumes users with an intermediate level of familiarity with R, and basic understanding of tumor biology.
The figure below highlights the workflow part which will be covered in this section.

A Multi Assay Experiment object from the MultiAssayExperiment package is the input for multiple main functions of ELMER. To create it you can use the createMAE
function.
But instead of using the data previously downloaded, we will use one with more samples provided in this package.

Also, we will need to filter the probes in the MAE to select only distal probes.
distal.probes <- get.feature.probe(genome = "hg38", met.platform = "450K")
The createMAE
function will receive both DNA methylation and gene expression objects. Also filter.probes
argument will select only probes in the regions of the distal.probes object.

This step is to identify DNA methylation changes at distal enhancer probes which is carried out by function get.diff.meth
.
For each distal probe, the function first rank samples from group 1 and group 2 samples by their DNA methylation beta values. To identify hypomethylated probes, the function compared the lower control quintile (20% of control samples with the lowest methylation) to the lower experiment quintile (20% of experiment samples with the lowest methylation), using an unpaired one-tailed t-test.
Argument | Description |
---|---|
data | A multiAssayExperiment with DNA methylation and Gene Expression data. See createMAE function. |
diff.dir | A character can be “hypo” or “hyper”, showing differential methylation dirction. It can be “hypo” which is only selecting hypomethylated probes; “hyper” which is only selecting hypermethylated probes |
minSubgroupFrac | A number ranging from 0 to 1,specifying the fraction of extreme samples from group 1 and group 2 that are used to identify the differential DNA methylation. The default is 0.2 because we typically want to be able to detect a specific (possibly unknown) molecular subtype among tumor; these subtypes often make up only a minority of samples, and 20% was chosen as a lower bound for the purposes of statistical power. If you are using pre-defined group labels, such as treated replicates vs. untreated replicated, use a value of 1.0 (Supervised mode) |
pvalue | A number specifies the significant P value (adjusted P value by BH) cutoff for selecting significant hypo/hyper-methylated probes. Default is 0.01 |
group.col | A column defining the groups of the sample. You can view the available columns using: colnames(MultiAssayExperiment::colData(data)) . |
group1 | A group from group.col. ELMER will run group1 vs group2. That means, if direction is hyper, get probes hypermethylated in group 1 compared to group 2. |
group2 | A group from group.col. ELMER will run group1 vs group2. That means, if direction is hyper, get probes hypermethylated in group 1 compared to group 2. |
sig.dif | A number specifies the smallest DNA methylation difference as a cutoff for selecting significant hypo/hyper-methylated probes. Default is 0.3. |
sig.diff <- get.diff.meth(data = mae,
group.col = "definition",
group1 = "Primary solid Tumor",
group2 = "Solid Tissue Normal",
minSubgroupFrac = 0.2,
sig.dif = 0.3,
diff.dir = "hypo", # Search for hypomethylated probes in group 1
cores = 1,
dir.out ="result",
pvalue = 0.01)
as.data.frame(sig.diff) %>% datatable(options = list(scrollX = TRUE))
# get.diff.meth automatically save output files.
# getMethdiff.hypo.probes.csv contains statistics for all the probes.
# getMethdiff.hypo.probes.significant.csv contains only the significant probes which
# is the same with sig.diff
dir(path = "result", pattern = "getMethdiff")
## [1] "getMethdiff.hypo.probes.csv"
## [2] "getMethdiff.hypo.probes.significant.csv"
This step is to link enhancer probes with methylation changes to target genes with expression changes and report the putative target gene for selected probes. This is carried out by function get.pair
.
For each distal probe with differential methylation the closest 10 upstream genes and the closest 10 downstream genes were tested for correlation between methylation of the probe and expression of the gene. Thus, exactly 20 statistical tests were performed for each probe, as follows. For each probe-gene pair, the samples (all experiment samples and control samples) were divided into two groups: the M group, which consisted of the upper methylation quintile (the 20% of samples with the highest methylation at the enhancer probe), and the U group, which consisted of the lowest methylation quintile (the 20% of samples with the lowest methylation.) For each probe-gene pair tested, the raw p-value Pr
was corrected for multiple hypothesis using a permutation approach.
Argument | Description |

minSubgroupFrac | A number ranging from 0 to 1.0 specifying the percentage of samples used to create groups U (unmethylated) and M (methylated) used to link probes to genes. Default is 0.4 (lowest quintile samples will be in the U group and the highest quintile samples in the M group). |
permu.size | A number specify the times of permuation. Default is 10000. |
pvalue | A number specify the raw p-value cutoff for defining signficant pairs. Default is 0.05. It will select the significant P value cutoff before calculating the empirical p-values. |
Pe | A number specify the empirical p-value cutoff for defining signficant pairs. Default is 0.001. |

group1 | A group from group.col. |
group2 | A group from group.col. |
filter.probes | Should filter probes by selecting only probes that have at least a certain number of samples below and above a certain cut-off. See preAssociationProbeFiltering function. |
filter.portion | A number specify the cut point to define binary methlation level for probe loci. Default is 0.3. When beta value is above 0.3, the probe is methylated and vice versa. For one probe, the percentage of methylated and unmethylated samples should be above filter.percentage value. Only used if filter.probes is TRUE. See preAssociationProbeFiltering function. |

This step is to identify enriched motif in a set of probes which is carried out by function get.enriched.motif
.
This function uses a pre-calculated data Probes.motif
which was generated using HOMER with a \(p-value \le 10^{–4}\) to scan a \(\pm250bp\) region around each probe using HOmo sapiens COmprehensive MOdel COllection http://hocomoco.autosome.ru/ v10 (Kulakovskiy et al. 2016) position weight matrices (PWMs). For each probe set tested (i.e. the list of gene-linked hypomethylated probes in a given group), a motif enrichment Odds Ratio and a 95% confidence interval were calculated using following formulas: \[ p= \frac{a}{a+b} \] \[ P= \frac{c}{c+d} \] \[ Odds\quad Ratio = \frac{\frac{p}{1-p}}{\frac{P}{1-P}} \] \[ SD = \sqrt{\frac{1}{a}+\frac{1}{b}+\frac{1}{c}+\frac{1}{d}} \] \[ lower\quad boundary\quad of\quad 95\%\quad confidence\quad interval = \exp{(\ln{OR}-SD)} \]
where a
is the number of probes within the selected probe set that contain one or more motif occurrences; b
is the number of probes within the selected probe set that do not contain a motif occurrence; c
and d
are the same counts within the entire enhancer probe set. A probe set was considered significantly enriched for a particular motif if the 95% confidence interval of the Odds Ratio was greater than 1.1 (specified by option lower.OR
, 1.1 is default), and the motif occurred at least 10 times (specified by option min.incidence
. 10 is default) in the probe set. As described in the text, Odds Ratios were also used for ranking candidate motifs.

probes | A vector lists the name of probes to define the set of probes in which motif enrichment OR and confidence interval will be calculated. |
lower.OR | A number specifies the smallest lower boundary of 95% confidence interval for Odds Ratio. The motif with higher lower boudnary of 95% confidence interval for Odds Ratio than the number are the significantly enriched motifs (detail see reference). |

This step is to identify regulatory TF whose expression associates with TF binding motif DNA methylation which is carried out by function get.TFs
.
For each motif considered to be enriched within a particular probe set, it will compare the average DNA methylation at all distal enhancer probes within \(\pm250bp\)
of a motif occurrence, to the expression of human TFs. A statistical test was performed for each motif-TF pair, as follows. The samples (all groups samples) were divided into two groups: the M group, which consisted of the 20% of samples with the highest average methylation at all motif-adjacent probes, and the U group, which consisted of the 20% of samples with the lowest methylation. For each candidate motif-TF pair, the Mann-Whitney U test was used to test the null hypothesis that overall gene expression in group M was greater or equal than that in group U. All TFs were ranked by the \(-log_{10}(P_{r})\), and those falling within the top 5% of this ranking were considered candidate upstream regulators.
