Overview
Introduction

This pipeline computes the correlation between significantly recurrent gene mutations and molecular subtypes.

Summary

Testing the association between mutation status of 47 genes and 6 molecular subtypes across 116 patients, 14 significant findings detected with P value < 0.05 and Q value < 0.25.

  • CBWD1 mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF'.

  • PGM5 mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF'.

  • TP53 mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF' and 'MIRSEQ_CHIERARCHICAL'.

  • PIK3CA mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF',  'METHLYATION_CNMF', and 'MIRSEQ_CHIERARCHICAL'.

  • ACVR2A mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF'.

  • ARID1A mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF' and 'MIRSEQ_CHIERARCHICAL'.

  • IRF2 mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF'.

  • RNF43 mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF'.

  • PHF2 mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF'.

  • POM121L12 mutation correlated to 'CN_CNMF'.

Methods & Data
Input
  • Mutation data file = STAD-TP.mutsig.cluster.txt

  • Molecular subtypes file = STAD-TP.transferedmergedcluster.txt

  • Number of patients = 116

  • Number of significantly mutated genes = 47

  • Number of Molecular subtypes = 6

  • Exclude genes that fewer than K tumors have mutations, K = 3

Fisher's exact test

For binary or multi-class clinical features (nominal or ordinal), two-tailed Fisher's exact tests (Fisher 1922) were used to estimate the P values using the 'fisher.test' function in R

Q value calculation

For multiple hypothesis correction, Q value is the False Discovery Rate (FDR) analogue of the P value (Benjamini and Hochberg 1995), defined as the minimum FDR at which the test may be called significant. We used the 'Benjamini and Hochberg' method of 'p.adjust' function in R to convert P values into Q values.
