Gene-set enrichment analysis

Synonyms

Gene-set over-represenation analysis

Functional enrichment analysis

GSEA

Gene set testing

Gene Ontology term enrichment

Gene Ontology concept enrichment

GO-term enrichment

Gene set analysis

Definitions

Identify classes of genes or proteins that are over or under-represented in a large set of genes or proteins. For example analysis of a set of genes corresponding to a gene expression profile, annotated with Gene Ontology (GO) concepts, where eventual over-/under-representation of certain GO concept within the studied set of genes is revealed. "Gene set analysis" (often used interchangeably or in an overlapping sense with "gene-set enrichment analysis") refers to the functional analysis (term enrichment) of a differentially expressed set of genes, rather than all genes analysed. Analyse gene expression patterns to identify sets of genes that are associated with a specific trait, condition, clinical outcome etc. Gene sets can be defined beforehand by biological function, chromosome locations and so on. The Gene Ontology (GO) is typically used, the input is a set of Gene IDs, and the output of the analysis is typically a ranked list of GO concepts, each associated with a p-value.
