yeastG1: Yeast cell-cycle gene expression data

In PGEE: Penalized Generalized Estimating Equations in High-Dimension

Description

A yeast cell-cycle gene expression data set collected in the CDC15 experiment of Spellman et al. (1998) where genome-wide mRNA levels of 6178 yeast open reading frames (ORFs) in a two cell-cycle period were measured at M/G1-G1-S-G2-M stages. However, to better understand the phenomenon underlying cell-cycle process, it is important to identify transcription factors (TFs) that regulate the gene expression levels of cell cycle-regulated genes. In this study, we presented a subset of 283 cell-cycled-regularized genes observed over 4 time points at G1 stage and the standardized binding probabilities of a total of 96 TFs obtained from a mixture model approach of Wang et al. (2007) based on the ChIP data of Lee et al. (2002).

Usage

data("yeastG1")

Details

A data frame with 1132 observations (283 cell-cycled-regularized genes observed over 4 time points) with 99 variables (e.g., id, y, time, and 96 TFs).
