Bio Pathway Enrichment Foundations

Agent skill
1 skill

Chooses the enrichment generation before any tool runs, mapping the input shape to a method class - a pre-selected gene list plus a background to over-representation analysis (ORA, hypergeometric), a ranked statistic for all genes to gene set enrichment (GSEA), a signed signaling topology to pathway-topology (SPIA) - then making the null explicit (competitive vs self-contained, gene vs subject sampling) and running a trustworthiness checklist (testable-gene universe, FDR, redundancy collapse, leading-edge check, version reporting). Covers why every clusterProfiler GSEA is the inter-gene-correlation-uncorrected competitive null, why the background not the gene list decides ORA significance, and why no method is universally best. Use when deciding ORA vs GSEA vs topology, which gene-set DB, whether a result is trustworthy, or which null a tool computes. For ORA see go-enrichment, GSEA see gsea, databases kegg-pathways/reactome-pathways/wikipathways; the ranking comes from differential-expression/de-results.
