Hands on with GRNsight

I tested the gray threshold and zoom functions on GRNsight beta version. Files were chosen from this web page to perform tests: 21-genes_31-edges_Schade-data_input.xlsx, 21-genes_31-edges_Schade-data_estimation_output.sif, and 21-genes_31-edges_Schade-data_estimation_output_unweighted.graphml.

Test 1

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Open
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the Excel workbook if there are no errors in the file
• Results: Passed

Test 2

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import SIF
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the SIF file if there are no errors in the file
• Results: Passed

Test 3

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import GraphML
• Results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the GraphML file if there are no errors in the file
• Results: Passed

Test 4

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Open. Gray Threshold Slider - Change the Grey Threshold Value
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the Excel workbook if there are no errors in the file. The graph should reload, with edges that fall below the threshold value colored gray
• Results: Did not pass; the zoom function was not visible

Test 4: Zoom function missing in bottom left corner of display for Excel workbook

Test 5

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import SIF. Gray Threshold Slider - Change the Grey Threshold Value
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the SIF file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should reload, with edges that fall below the threshold value colored gray
• Results: Passed

Test 6

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import GraphML. Gray Threshold Slider - Change the Grey Threshold Value
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the GraphML file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should reload, with edges that fall below the threshold value colored gray
• Results: Did not pass; the zoom function was not visible

Test 6: Zoom function missing in bottom left corner of display for GraphML

Test 7

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Open. Zoom Slider - Increase Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the Excel workbook if there are no errors in the file. The graph should zoom in (get larger)
• Results: Passed

Test 8

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import SIF. Zoom Slider - Increase Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the SIF file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should zoom in (get larger)
• Results: Passed

Test 9

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import GraphML. Zoom Slider - Increase Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the GraphML file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should zoom in (get larger)
• Results: Passed

Test 10

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Open. Gray Threshold Slider - Change the Grey Threshold Value Zoom Slider - Increase Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the Excel workbook if there are no errors in the file. The graph should reload, with edges that fall below the threshold value colored gray. The graph should zoom in (get larger)
• Results: Failed; gray threshold function not visible

Test 11

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import SIF. Gray Threshold Slider - Change the Grey Threshold Value Zoom Slider - Increase Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the SIF file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should reload, with edges that fall below the threshold value colored gray. The graph should zoom in (get larger)
• Results: Passed

Test 12

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import GraphML. Gray Threshold Slider - Change the Grey Threshold Value. Zoom Slider - Increase Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the GraphML file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should reload, with edges that fall below the threshold value colored gray. The graph should zoom in (get larger).
• Results: Failed; gray threshold function not visible

Test 13

• Instructions:
• Load Graph - File Menu -> Open. Zoom Slider - Decrease Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the Excel workbook if there are no errors in the file. The graph should zoom out (get smaller)
• Results: Passed

Test 14

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import SIF. Zoom Slider - Decrease Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the SIF file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should zoom out (get smaller)
• Results: Passed

Test 15

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import GraphML. Zoom Slider - Decrease Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the GraphML file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should zoom out (get smaller)
• Results: Passed

Test 16

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Open. Gray Threshold Slider - Change the Grey Threshold Value. Zoom Slider - Decrease Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the Excel workbook if there are no errors in the file. The graph should reload, with edges that fall below the threshold value colored gray. The graph should zoom out (get smaller)
• Results: Failed; gray threshold function not visible

Test 17

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import SIF. Gray Threshold Slider - Change the Grey Threshold Value. Zoom Slider - Decrease Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the SIF file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should reload, with edges that fall below the threshold value colored gray. The graph should zoom out (get smaller)
• Results: Passed

Test 18

• Instructions: Load Graph - File Menu -> Import GraphML. Gray Threshold Slider - Change the Grey Threshold Value. Zoom Slider - Decrease Zoom Level
• Expected results: GRNsight should lay out a network graph from the GraphML file if there are no errors in the file. The graph should reload, with edges that fall below the threshold value colored gray. The graph should zoom out (get smaller)
• Results: Failed; gray threshold function not visible

Web service API exploration for NCBI

1. We referenced [1] from the Relevant Documentation section in the Week 9 assignment page.
2. https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/ was used because this service requires performing an E-utility call.
3. We replaced <database> with gene and <query> with ADA2 (a specific gene) in esearch.fcgi?db=<database>&term=<query> and added this to the growing URL to narrow the results to the gene database and a specific gene from NCBI.
4. [gene] was added to narrow the results further to gene specific data
5. +AND+Saccharomyces+20cerevisiae[Organism] allowed us to reach the final product by specifying the organism (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) where + replaced the spaces and [Organism] indicated that organism data was wanted.

Final URL

https://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/esearch.fcgi?db=gene&term=ada2[gene]+AND+Saccharomyces+20cerevisiae[Organism]
