  2. Rationale – Journal information Nature 407(6805):770-6.The Biochemistry of Apoptosis. “Caspase-8 is the key initiator caspase in the death-receptor pathway. Upon ligand binding, death receptors such as CD95 (Apo-1/Fas) aggregate and form membrane-bound signalling complexes (Box 3). These complexes then recruit, through adapter proteins, several molecules of procaspase-8, resulting in a high local concentration of zymogen. The induced proximity model posits that under these crowded conditions, the low intrinsic protease activity of procaspase-8 (ref. 20) is sufficient to allow the various proenzyme molecules to mutually cleave and activate each other (Box 2). A similar mechanism of action has been proposed to mediate the activation of several other caspases, including caspase-2 and the nematode caspase CED-3 (ref. 21).” How can I access the pathway described here and reuse it?

  4. Reactome is… Free, online, open-source curated database of pathways and reactions in human biology Authored by expert biologists, maintained by Reactome editorial staff (curators) Mapped to cellular compartment

  5. Reactome is… Extensively cross-referenced Tools for data analysis – Pathway Analysis, Expression Overlay, Species Comparison, Biomart… Used to infer orthologous events in 20 non-human species

  6. Using model organism data to build pathways – Inferred pathway events Direct evidence PMID:5555 PMID:4444 Direct evidence human PMID:8976 mouse Indirect evidence PMID:1234 cow

  22. Exercise 1

  23. Zoom/move toolbar Thumbnail Species selector The Pathway Browser Diagram Key Sidebar Pathway Diagram Panel Details Panel (hidden)

  24. Pathways tab – pathway hierarchy Pathway Reaction Black-box

  25. Exercise 2 From the homepage, search for ‘Notch signaling’. Click on the top pathway hit. This will open it in the Pathway Browser. Ignoring the diagram for now, look at the Pathways tab on the left. How many sub-pathways does this pathway have? How many reactions are in the first of these sub-pathways? What reaction follows Notch 2 precursor transport to Golgi? Hint: If it’s not visible, open the Details pane at the bottom of the page by clicking on the blue triangle.

  26. The Pathway Browser - Pathway Diagrams Boxes are proteins, protein sets, mixed sets or complexes. Ovals are small molecules (or sets of) Green boxes are proteins or sets, blue are complexes.

  33. Pathway Analysis

  34. Pathway Analysis – Overrepresentation ‘Top-level’ Reveal next level P-val

  35. Exercise 6 Check this! What is the most significantly over-represented top-level pathway for this dataset? How many genes are in this pathway, and how many were represented in the dataset? Why is the top-level pathway Chromosome Maintenance higher in the list than Signalling by Wnt when the latter has a more significant probability score? (Hint – use the Open All button) Can you interpret these results in terms of the underlying biology? (Hint: good luck, there are many correct answers!)
